Nice or is my taste exceptional?
 

People rarely object to my music playlists, if any. In fact they all say they like each song. Are they just being nice or is my taste in music superior?

They're probably being polite. Not that it means they think it's bunk, just that they probably don't care what's on it.

I've no idea what you listen to, but I tell people this all the time about their boring playlists.

In my experience, the more interesting the playlist the more likely the average person is to complain about it. While the more familiar or middle-of-the-road the playlist is the more likely the average person is to enjoy it. That's why you usually hear the same old boring crap at every wedding.

Post one in here so us judgemental fucks can tear you a new asshole with it.

Yes. I can't tell you have many people have said they hate the mix tape I made them.

Then again, maybe I just have ****ty taste

Dude I would totally rock your mixtapes you have outstanding taste.

why bother, she's only got 86 posts. i bet the girl still listens to Dio and 98 degrees.

Yeah I've always found it dis-heartening putting together a playlist for a party because 5 minutes into it some drunk yob will take it off to hear whatever crap just popped into their head.


LOL. Sounds about right. Especially after stating your exceptional taste in the thread title. That's really throwing it down.

If I were to actually make a list here of some favorites and you liked some or the whole thing you can't lie and say it sucks just bc of the fact. I don't know where to begin right now bc I'm not even in the mood for music tonight. Instead if you look around my mere 87 posts you can get a partial idea.
It may be due to the fact, as sometime else said, "my" music is old and "safe". Most of it is radio material. I don't think ppl would lie bc I don't ASK them what they think; they just offer the opinions and they know I don't even CARE what they think, either. So. . .

I dig playlists.. you done the ten song shuffle yet? so I have an idea as to whether I would like it or not and can answer honestly...

Why ask our opinion then?

It all really depends on your audience, mang. I've thrown on mixtapes in the car that made my mother bitch. Most notably, I had "Fuck Was I" by Jenny Owen Youngs on a mix once, and my mom was all, "This is shit. What, does she just say fuck a lot and think she's deep?" But that same mix was worn the hell out by my friends that same summer.

I gotta tell you Pedestrian has a great point, if you think you have EXCEPTIONAL taste, who cares if others are lying? And didn't you point out in Kat's thread that music was not a personal possession or something or other... so you never got mad when people you love hated music... but I could be very wrong quoting you...REMAIN CALM....

v('.')v just bored

"It all really depends on your audience, mang."
Who is mang?

Mang = man. A dumb way of saying it though.

come on mang... :rofl:

Just one little one.

I'll give her Joe Jackson and she gets a plus because you renamed Young Turks, Young Turds. :band:

Youve never even seen my hair!

Doesn't matter.
I reviewed an album here I hadn't even heard & 3 people agreed with me.

Awe so hateful, shux i feel so stoopitnow u guys!

:rofl:

I am sorry love, but they ARE just being nice... I gotta tell you only Fleetwood makes it on my playlist.... REMAIN CALM :shycouch: Seriously please don't hit me

I don't think they are just being nice, I believe their taste is simply equally as bad.

:rofl:

I'm a fan of several people on those playlists (Billy Idol, Fleetwood Mac, Stevie Wonder) but I'm sorry to say the playlists taken altogether are very much the kind of middle-of-the-road safe mix of tracks that I referred to before. It really does feel like a wedding playlist or something. I'm not trying to be mean or anything, this is just my take.

ssshh it's in my guilty pleasures file..

There's nothing guilty pleasure about it, Billy Idol has put out some great stuff.

I suspected this TBH bc they are not phony. . .

I was just being an ass.

I said so in another thread, but IMO Billy Idol is a fecking idiot, but I am a fan of Steve Stevens

Well, it's not like I look to him for insight into theoretical physics. I just think he's made some great music and, yes, Steve Stevens is a major part of that.
