That's pretty funny considering that pretty much all of you listed the exact same bands<
i said that non-funny thing, so i get to reply. _i_ listed different bands from most people's which proves either that i march to the beat of a different bongo or am just stupider than all the smiths fans out there. actually, marginalized as i am, morrissey's lyrics don't really speak to me. egocentric and whiny, with a few witty phrases here and there, as far as i can tell - though i can see how he speaks for a legion of angst-ridden introspectives. no offense meant. i have two smiths albums so back off. the lack of black folks on the music list is startling; good point. can't say i care for the music most american blacks are making today. but fats waller and louis armstrong and their ilk - and the unique jimi hendrix - were geniuses. 99.9% of rap, however, bugs the hell out of me. i bet most b/s fans feel the same way, our favorite band being sprightly and twee and soft-spoken. perhaps i'm just too old and crotchety. humbug.
