Does music taste affect your dating life? Different vibes vs. same playlist

🙂 She didn't say everything; she just skipped over the country music 😬

If you ask me, someone who claims to listen to "everything" isn't actually listening to anything at all...

I suppose it matters... I'm just not sure... I haven't met a girl who loves Corazon de Oro yet 😢
😁

Hmmmm... I get where you're coming from, but "listening to everything" could also mean having the knack for finding something beautiful or interesting in pretty much any genre.

Personally, nothing gets under my skin more than those music snobs. Look, I get it—there are plenty of people out there for whom music is just background noise or doesn't really matter, and I can live with that. But when it comes to people who actually *love* and understand music, yet willfully limit themselves to just one single style? That’s what I can't stand, whether it's in person or just arguing about it on here...

Sorry, but you guys are actually hilarious to me 🤣

It’s just so 👋

It’s not like I have any stylistic limitations, far from it...
I was talking about those people who just use music as background noise.

As far as what they're worried about goes... no way.

Generally speaking, if someone listens to country, they're a good person.

That isn't necessarily true; maybe they're just sad... much like Radiohead fans.😁

And when it comes to Creep, obviously, only the true fans actually bother to listen to it. 👍>

gentlepuma20 said:That’s because they’re all just overdramatic, depressed, and misunderstood. You know, typical emo stuff.

Give me a break... I'm not some depressed, misunderstood mess, yet I still love Radiohead. And honestly? Creep isn't even in my top 10. 😁

Radiohead 😍

It’s not you—but whoever Roger Jones5 is probably thinking about, it is them. And you're throwing Creep into this too (which, if you ask me, is one of their most overrated tracks).
I mean, I love Radiohead—honestly, I'm a huge fan.😍

Look, I’m not saying "Creep" is some garbage track—it isn't—but let's be real for a second: the whole thing is basically just one giant, blatant case of plagiarism.😁

Really? From whom? Mars Volta or Dismemberment Plan? 😁

Sean Lee7 said:really? whose—Mars Volta or Dismemberment Plan? 😁

ooooh, burn. 😁

Sean Lee7 said:Oh yeah? Whose? Are we talking Mars Volta or some Dismemberment plan here? 😁

It’s honestly hard to stay offended when you're being hit with such lovely compliments.😁 🙂

I can't quite remember if it was The Moody Blues or Manfred Mann... just one of those big 60s bands, you know? Something super famous... I always tell myself I'll commit it to memory, and then—poof—it's gone.😵

Timothy Jones85 said:It’s hard to feel insulted when you're being called such lovely names.😁 🙂

Well, at least I tried. 🙂

Dead Carrot said:Eeeeee... look, I'm not some broken, depressed nobody just because I dig Radiohead. And honestly? "Creep" isn't even cracking my top 10. 😁

Radiohead 😍

it's barely in my top 50

gentlepuma20 said:It isn't you, but the people Harrigan is probably thinking of certainly are. And you're throwing Creep into the mix too, which, if you ask me, is one of the most irrelevant things to even bring up.

Why the sudden hostility toward the band's fanbase? 🙂
In your last post, you were making sweeping generalizations about everyone, but now you've suddenly pivoted to being somewhat moderate...

From what I've seen—and yeah, I’ll jump on the Creep hate bandwagon just for the hell of it—I haven't actually run into a single fan who ever even *mentions* that song. Let alone brings it up during those "greatest hits" type discussions we see everywhere..

Lali Puna said:The second someone claims they listen to everything, I start getting suspicious.

Look, whenever someone asks what I listen to, I just say "everything." I hate that question. It catches me off guard, so I give the easiest answer possible. Honestly? I’m the one who finds people suspicious when they ask, "So, what kind of music are you into?"

Samuel Murphy6 said:Why the hate for the fans? 🙂
Your last post was a total generalization—now you're kind of walking it back...

Man, I’m honestly worried you’ll end up becoming one of those tragic, broken souls we were just talking about in a few posts. 😛

From what I've seen (and yeah, I'll join the Creep hate train), I haven't actually met a single fan who ever *mentions* that song. Not even in the "greatest hits" debates...

Look, seriously, just read what's being said here. Harrigan mentioned he can't stand people who act like die-hard purists when discussing music, so I figured we were talking about the crowd that obsesses over Creep and treats the lyrics like a personality trait. I didn't say they were some kind of hardcore extremist fanatics like you, for instance. 😁

😁

Well, count me in! Though I'm definitely not some young kid anymore.😁
