Re: Expect the Unexpected (Unknown Musical Tastes) - Kashemia - 08-31-2010 Hehe, I've had my Last.fm account since I was in highschool, and wasn't scrobbling for several years when I started college, so it's still much more influenced by what I listened to when I was younger, than what I listen to now: 1: Sentenced 2: The Ark (Swedish glam pop/rock) 3: Atlantis (Danish musical) 4: Nightwish 5: 1996 London Studio Cast (Jesus Christ Superstar) 6: Queen 7: Gackt 8: Andrew Lloyd Webber 9: Original Cast Starlight Express 10: System of a Down 11: Marilyn Manson 12: Benny Anderson/Tim Rice/ Björn Ulvaeus 13: Shock Treatment 14: Stephen Schwartz (Wicket) 15: Peter Spies, Thomas Høg (More of the Danish musical, just from a different CD <.<) It's actually sort of interesting for me to see. Some of it is actually still pretty accurate of what I listen to, some if it I wonder why isn't higher placed, but I guess it's because I wasn't scrobbling when I listened a lot to it. Re: Expect the Unexpected (Unknown Musical Tastes) - Trizzip - 09-01-2010 If ya'll use LastFM, add me as a friend on there. Re: Expect the Unexpected (Unknown Musical Tastes) - Samriel - 09-01-2010 Tadaa! Re: Expect the Unexpected (Unknown Musical Tastes) - Satisiun - 09-01-2010 Well, considering know one really knows me or anything since I'm still a less-than-100-posts newb ("You don't know me! You don't know me! You don't know nothin'!"), I doubt the community will be either surprised or unsurprised with whatever I put up. Nevertheless, I may as well pick the music I listen to that most people who do know me double-take at when they hear I listen to it. In particular? Despite being about as ghostly as Casper in the skintone department and also fitting the WASP stereotype to a T (minus the Protestant part), my playlists are filled to the brim with old school hip-hop (or modern tracks inspired by it), jazz music (both nu and classic), and J-Hip-Hop (think Samurai Champloo; Rest in Peace, Nujabes). There's a few "mainstream" items, however. (I don't use LastFM, sadly, so I'm basically winging this list. Sample song for each artist/group, too.) 1) Nujabes - Imaginary Folklore 2) Giant Panda - Strings 3) Sound Providers - Autumn's Evening Breeze 4) People Under the Stairs - The Breakdown 5) The Hours - Ali in the Jungle 6) Carl Sagan ft. Stephen Hawkings (you heard me) - A Glorious Dawn 7) Dj Krush - Candle Chant 8) Blue Scholars - Sagaba 9) Anamanaguchi - Another Winter (Scott Pilgrim) 10) m-flo - Prism 11) City and Colour - Sleeping Sickness 12) Frou Frou - Let Go 13) Miles Davis - 'Round Midnight 14) Dave Matthew's Band - #41 15) Amy Winehouse - Procrastination It doesn't help that most (see: all) of my friends are exclusively in to metal, or hard rock, no exceptions. I don't exactly have many/any friends who have such an eclectic music variety.
