I read a review for her album and listened to some samples. I liked it. I think I added it to my Amazon cart.

Okay, I really like the Clues album now.

There are more free samplers on Amazon.com than I thought. And wow, I didn't think I'd see Au Revoir Simone at #4 on the Top Free Songs list.

At least download this Sub Pop Amazon Sampler, while it's free, for the Flight of the Conchords track. I'd give a link to the individual track, but individually they seem to actually cost money.

You mean something like this lilly marlene by Marlene Dietrich

and this Lust Satan Death by Gallhammer

or this ABBA - Chiquitita (in Spanish)

or this Perfume - Electro World by Perfume

or this Kubrick´s 2001: A Space Odyssey

Only two types of music are on my avoid at all costs list. Country Western and Rap. The former makes me want to eat a shotgun and the latter makes me want to beat other people with the stock.

Its not just whats on the 'won't listen to list', I have a pretty wide range, its what you actively listen to. Most of us seem to have a comfort zone that we don't wander outside of much.

How many people here have listened to viking/medieval goth?

Joni Mitchell, Big Yellah Taxi.

Splendor Solis - The Tea Party

I guess I’m lucky I never really developed a comfort zone because I didn’t get seriously into music until later in life. I’ve also never cared what others think about my likes and dislikes so peer pressure never steered me toward/away form anything. Doesn’t hurt that my lifestyle affords me more free time than most anyone but a retiree.


Not many here in Canada or the U.S.A apparently. Though I suspect there are a lot of music preferences out there people consider guilty pleasures and don’t advertise much, or are just never exposed to on their local radio.


Now listening to Qntal - Entre Moi et mon Amin by Qntal

and Omnis Mundi Creatura by Helium Vola

Latest random find I had to run and buy CDs of,
The Derek Trucks Band

Bluesey guitar rock with all kinds of random influences mixed in from southern to bluegrass to African drum beats. The samples are way too short but will give you the idea.
