Yes, I hate it when people are like "Have you heard that new song? It's like OH MY GAH!" And then I'll usually like youtube it or something and end up hating it. I don't like being told what to listen to, read, watch, etc. so I'll usually do the opposite. That happened with Harry Potter, The Golden Compass movie, and the Da Vinci Code.
I don't really dig John Mayer's taste in women, but his songs are pretty cool. Sara Bareilles is awesome because she wrote "Love Song" as a sort of defiance against her record label; they wanted her to write a love song and so she wrote one, one with the lyrics, "I'm not gonna write you a love song cause you asked for one, cause you need one...." And Jason Mraz also writes/sings the coolest things. "It's all about the wordplay...."
Mostly anything. I don't really like [i]pop[/i] pop or country or rap though.......wow that seems like a lot of dislike. But really, I'll listen to just about anything as long as it "moves me." (Moving me involves me singing along poorly and doing sad little dance moves.)
Favorite Bands/Artists include:
~Paramore
~Green Day
~The Beatles
~Shakira (got hooked on that one song.....need to look it up again...)
~John Mayer
~Jason Mraz
~Cobra Starship
~Sara Bareilles
~Plain White T's
~Fall Out Boy
~The Almost
~Panic At the Disco
~My Chemical Romance
~The Academy Is...
But that doesn't mean I claim to know every song by them. I'm just not that great at buying CD's.....youtube!
I know most of the songs by Paramore and Green Day though, and those are the two bands I [i]really[/i] like.
