The AUDIO RACK
I love my stereo...
_______________
_______________
...and the music that it plays...
I like a strange schizophrenic mixture of music:
Dance music - I call it "reincarnated disco tunes"
New Age music - a term for uncatagorizable instrumentaal stuff
English Pop music - why is it that their English accents ddisappear when they sing?
Top 40 - mainstream "popular" music that radio stations like to play
I LIKE ... Sade, Seal, Pet Shop Boys, Erasure, Deep Forest, Kate Bush, Peter Gabriel, Depeche Mode, Sarah McLauchlan, Billy Idol, Annie Lennox, Jennifer Warnes, Celine Dion, Enigma, Mike Oldfield, Patrick O'hearn, Tangerine Dream, Pink Floyd, Loreena McKennitt, Vivaldi, Tears for Fears, Phil Collins, Crowded house, Madonna
I HATE ... Meatloaf and all Jim Steinman songs, Mariah Carey ( talk about singing all over the musical scale! ), Boyz2Men ( talk about singing all over the musical scale! ), OMC, Michael Bolton, "twangy" country music ( Chris Isaak is about as country as I get ! ), heavy metal, The Monkeys, poorly done re-makes , Hooked-On-anything
I APPRECIATE (but don't necessarily like)...blues, jazz, and Operatic music
