I don't say "I like everything" because I don't like everything. I usually say something like, "I like a lot of stuff. Jazz, metal, hip hop, punk, electronica—you name it." I find it extremely hard to name off bands that will serve as any kind of helpful reference points for people. When I was younger it was a lot easier, I had an easy handful of favorite artists I could rattle off, but as I've gotten older and been exposed to more and more things, that list has gotten longer and longer, to the point where I have no idea how to frame it in a way that encapsulates my taste or would be remotely helpful for anyone else.
