hi sinister, i am looking at alloy.com right now. you know, the teeny-bopper outfit that tells high school girls what to wear and who is cool and whatnot. i just look at it because i order flares from them sometimes. yeah. =) but anyway, look what i found. they have a quiz up that lets you find out who your "music muse" is, i guess that's the musician that you identify the most with. i'm not done with the quiz so i don't know who my muse is. but check out the first question... "You're making a mix CD for the cutie you're crushin' on. To brainstorm, you make a list of the top five greatest artists ever. Who's on your list? a. Mary J. Blige, Aretha Franklin, Jay-Z, Usher and Billie Holiday. b. Carlos Santana, Sting, Gloria Estefan, Wyclef Jean and Christina Aguilera. c. Sonic Youth, Ani Difranco, Pavement, Bjork and Stereolab. d. Eminem, the Cranberries, Madonna, Britney Spears and Belle & Sebastian. e. Mighty Mighty Bosstones, Bush, Eve, Garbage and Hole." i wonder who it would be that would count eminem, the cranberries, britney spears, and b&s in their top 5 of all time? it's an interesting combination, isn't it? it's also quite interesting that alloy.com would even make a reference to b&s. maybe there's someone sinister in the ranks of alloy. well, i just had to write and share that with you all. by the way, i've finished the quiz, and my music muse is... fiona apple? "You have the tendency to get a little depressed, but you use your music to get through the tough times, just like Fiona Apple. Her lyrics touch upon the gloomiest moments in life, and her deep (and often imperfect) voice is raw to the bone. She's as raw as it gets, but has the goods to back it up. You're the same exact way. You lend your whole self to the music, and others are often in awe of your passion. Anything less would be criminal." oh. right. =) love, alyson +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister@missprint.org.
