I have a very precarious and discriminating taste, it is hard to describe. It really depends what mood for what genre of music I want to listen to. The last few songs I really got into was 1901 by Phoenix, Jique by the Brazilian Girls, and Love Letters by Snow Pony but before that I was listening to Coldplay and The Strokes.

I feel I have no I idea if I like good music. I have no idea why I like songs and I always wonder if they are just as good to other people.

I think a good rhythym section (bass and drums) and melody that developes throughout the song are my top two criterea for liking a song.
