Wasn't the whole point of High Fidelity to show that the idea that "It's not what you're like, it's what you like" is complete bull**** and will leave you a lonely British loser working in a hole-in-the-wall record store with Jack Black?

I don't think a different taste in music would pose an issue if I were in a relationship, as long as my eardrums wouldn't have to bear a constant stream of half-finished 'rap' sentences about smoking weed, waving with a gun and who knows what else. Of course dating someone with a similar taste in music will always be much more enjoyable.

They were like Pokemon but a lot less popular and had something to do with the internet. Like, they were in the internet or something.
But yeah music taste absolutely makes a difference in a relationship in most cases. It might be cute to have very different tastes in that early phase where everything is cute and new, but 6 months later if you're still hearing Garth Brooks or Aqua blaring you're going to snap and strangle them in their sleep or something. I guess partially it's a question of how different your tastes are. |

And eventually life will happen, and two people will have to deal with some kind of issue together. Just because my girlfriend/buddy/whatever also likes Slayer doesn't mean I can count on that person when the **** hits the fan. They might be a selfish prick who leaves me to deal with something just because they can't be bothered, they might screw me over because of money, etc. A person's character and compatibility with you is what decides whether or not you'll still be talking to them five years from now, and those are in no way connected with musical taste. |
I guess I'm mostly trying to say that a significant other liking music that makes your skin crawl can just be one more thing to wear you down. Music won't be enough to bring anyone together alone but it can really pile on... in my experience at least. I JUST DON'T LIKE PITBULL. Though the same person introduced me to Nick Drake and Film School many moons ago so maybe this is a selective memory thing. Pitbull's voice just annoyed me so much. Driving to the fair and there's Pitbull, hanging out doing stupid couple stuff and THERE'S PITBULL.:banghead:
It's kind of like dating someone who snores really loud or tells too many stories. |
The ex-gf was into the Deaftones, Limp Bizkit, ICP and stuff like that when we met. Yes, I did raze her about ICP at least. Later on in the relationship, she switched almost completely to country music. So, yeah, when "punk-rock girls"* go mainstream. That said, music wasn't really that much of a consideration, and it's less so as I get older; basically, not even on the radar.

There were days were i just took out my guitar and we sang together the songs i knew from the artist we liked. imo she sang 'Be quiet and Drive' better than Chino. Honestly, having a partner with different music taste can even be a good thing. if you become real close you end up inhering their perspective without losing yours. |
I will only date a girl if she shares my hatred for ketchup and mushrooms. it might be cute for her to eat fungi for the first while but that's no way to have a real relationship am I right bros???

I could never date someone who didn't like Nina Hagen. You don't like my favorite band? Fine. You don't like Nina? MADNESS.

It's not a deal breaker but it sure is a nice plus when you can play whatever you want without bothering them with the music. Only been with one girl that has great taste though.
Do you and Linn have any crossover, Chula? |

This past Saturday while she was working out she had a station on that played nothing but The Beatles, Stones, and Zeppelin. After the mid 80s we kind of went our separate ways - we're the same age BTW. |
Oh my god. What if a chick I'm dating likes spiders? And keeps spiders?! If I'm over at her place, and she has some big ****ing aquarium in her room with a giant tarantula, what the **** am I supposed to do? I ain't gonna be able to get it up. Time to ****ing bail, dudes.

Having the same taste is a nice bonus, but I'd have lived an incredibly lonely life and missed out on so much if I had made this a necessary requirement.
|
It's honestly always kinda been a requirement because my taste in music is a soundtrack to my life. I'm into my music, I require a dude who is also into his music and will not only not mind but in fact enjoy when I'm controlling the ambient sounds. What I think suits the mood, he's gotta think suits the mood, and he does. Our taste isn't identical, but we can talk music together for hours and know references and ****.
And obviously it's not all that matters, but yeah its kinda important if you're THAT into something. Wouldn't date a dude who had zero appreciation for my art preferences, either. |
