Board is seeming a little sluggish, so I'll pull something out of my ass. There _must_ be some things you feel bad about appreciating. For me it's Bjork Joga (I'm not an emotional person, and hate vocals, but listen to this every 5 months or so) and vletrmx (before you choke me with my intestines--I'm just bothered by being affected so strongly by something so simple (and yes there are millions of things in life like this (and those people that argue that all strong messages are inherently simple (you can agree if you like (I feel like I'm writing in scheme (lambda (x) (lambda (x) (lambda (x) x)))))))) (I'm writing crappy since lack-of-sleep, sorry) |

Music isn't some competition to be seen as having more cool tastes than the person next to you. I like a piece of music because I like it and nothing else enters the equation. A lot of people on here take the piss out of the fact that I like Dire Straits. Doesn't bother me in the slightest. |

Well, like I said, I don't like vocals, and I'm not an emotional person; I would go more in depth but then people would think I'm making some statement and judging them and war would break out main screen turn on what happen monoid: you mean you listen to everything and have no taste I can here the congregatoin down the street screaming, and I'm definitely not ashamed to fucking hate that. |

Well, of course I don't just mean exterior judgement, but also interior. I always want to be able to rationally justify tastes of mine--if for some reason I start liking something which goes against principles of mine, or has more blemishes than other things which I don't like, of course I'm going to be irritated with myself. it's more a hypothetical shame than anything else--I've never played vletrmx for someone in real life so.. |

I didn't read 95% of what you wrote, sorry. Seems to be a general problem around here.. But anyway I definitely don't want to like something just because I like it. Why? Because that doesn't exist--humans are chemical state machines and everything has an explanation, albeit possibly complicating, contradictory, and/or confusing. I always try to analyze those things just like I analyze all details of my dreams. Maybe it brings about schizophrenia, paranoia, or other devastating psychological disorders, but I just like to have all sorts of indicators of what goes on in me skull.. |

I agree with ceri, any compistion of music can be scrutinised and pounded into oblivion by anyone, until someone composes teh perfect song we'll all be listening to crap, so get over it, whatever you listen to seems shameful to someone, so stop chickening out of your feelings and just accept who you are, stop being a coward. also, I like a LOT of j-pop some gabba, I suppose it's the least classy stuff I listen to, I'm definitely not ashamed of it though |

wow, that came out sounding more agressive than I intended, I apologize, also, I was in the car today with three other NOTHING BUT METALLICA metal heads today, and had j-pop blaring thh entire trip, I didn't feel akward about it, I didn't put it on to annoy them, I just felt like listening to it at the time, no one said anything though, they just ignored it, if they had gave their opinion it woukldn't have amttered anyway |

it's east describing something you like but cannot find a "technichal reason" to liking, you simply like the aesthetics and texture of it, the most technicahlly brilliant song can still sound like arse to you if it has no aesthetics and texture to it, without that there is absolutely no point to music in the first place, music is an art not a math |

You don't like music with vocals, that is wierd... and seeing as you're not 'emotional', you only enjoy emotionless instrumental music? Man that must be boring :P |

Some club/dancey stuff (like Basement Jaxx) I have a weakness for. And how can you dislike music with emotion in it.. are you a robot? |

good topic, sneakattack. ceri you described very concisely what I think. you like something because it causes your body to reward you chemically. *what* it rewards you chemically *for*, is an evolving process, and has to do with how you started out in music and how you progress. anyway, Baby One More Time by britney, as performed by MrBungle, which is way crappier. |

I recall Busta Rhymes - Woohah (got you all in check) being my favorite song back in spring of 1996. I still think it's kinda catchy. |

There's nothing shameful about liking Busta he is da man. I don't think I'm ashamed of any stuff I listen to to be honest. |

I like Dire Straits too. Brothers in arms was a good album. I first listened through it when I was 16 and drunk at my parents' Christmas party. My older brother snuck me out to a club and my parents found out I was missing and went apeshit on our asses. Good memory, good tunes. My guilty pleasure song pick would be: Daft Punk - Something About Us |

this is a good topic. mine is: . (fischerspooner, tiga, swayzak, xlover, all those other bandwagon hoppers). i wouldn't say i'm ashamed, more that i'm ambivalent, my feelings are divided. on the one hand i love the synths, the electro beats, the ridiculous lyrics, and think it's all good fun and great club music which doesn't scare the pretty ladies away; on the other hand, i hate with a passion the mullet-haired, £80 retro t-shirt wearing motherfuckers who frequent such clubs. i suppose i'm ashamed because it's considered "cool" to be into electroclash, and i don't want to be perceived as someone who just likes things because of such reasons. so ultimately i'm just as superficial as those people who like it specifically because they read about it in The Face. |

There's nowt wrong with Dire Straits - the Sultans of Swing is a frigging amazing song. |

Knives Out is great.. that shame you're feeling in uncalled for. |

There's nothing I'm really ashamed to like. Though I try not to let people hear me listening to Corey Hart's ''Sunglasses at Night''. But I know it's a classic, there's no INTERNAL struggle there. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
damn straight it's a classic! what do you think of the tiga & zyntherius cover? superior to the original IMO. tom middleton's mashup of it with new order's blue monday ('blue sunglasses') is well worth a d/l. |
