Looking at the wide range of artists people listed under their “favorite music” sparked a question I often consider but never really ask:
Can you describe the range of your musical taste in one sentence, encompassing all of the seemingly incongruent parts into one overall musical philosophy?
This can be a difficult exercise, but I think it can also reveal a lot about why you choose the music you choose and how each song, artist, or subgenre fits your character. Borrowing Alej’s great example, why would your friends find Dixie Chicks and Prince next to each other on your iPod? Why do you listen to Beethoven and Jack Johnson to fall asleep at night?
Enough of my rambling… it’s time for your opinions! :-)
