What your music says about you

I like all of these genres. Perhaps I have bipolar disorder.

Likely you've got a lot more than two poles in your disorder


Surely you don't like Toby Keith and the Dixie Chicks

So traditional folk music isn't even good enough to be on the list?

Folks that listen to traditional folk music are well balanced and politically committed to just causes. They're really not much fun to talk about.

I figured this stuff must have come from such a source because almost every music taste reflects high self-esteem. Yet, if society were made up of such people, there would be no Republicans. 😉

If you open your mind to all these styles, you'll find some merit in each. As a musician, I know I became a better player when I "took the blinders off". If you're versatile in your taste, you'll be more comfortable with life issues.

rap isn't "music"

So what is it?

Utter bollocks. This is what it should say:

Indie: boring, depressing and in sore need of attention.

Rock 'n' Roll: aggressive, immature and greasy.

Blues: boring, depressing, chain smoking and probably wearing sunglasses at inappropriate times of the day.

Jazz: Pretentious, smug

Classical: pretentious, obnoxious, full of themselves, small genitals.

Heavy metal: boring, aggressive, divorced parents.

Reggae: one or both parents used drugs, unemployed, smelly.

Country & Western: racist, inbred, dyslexic and/or squint eyed.

Dance: boring, full of themselves, skinny, uses drugs or should.

Rap: racist, sexist, obnoxious, no sense of melody, divorced parents, criminal record.

Someone had to call it for what it is.
