challenge

replying to shelyra's challenge (thanks, dear):

musics on my computer: i'd say a little bit of everything, it depends on the way we see the question. if the answer is about music genres, then i'd say that hard rock, metal and gothic prevail, even though i have a little bit of almost everything - techno, house, opera (yes, opera), rock, pop, and bad music in general terms. however, if the question is about singers and bands, then muse, oasis, system of a down and blasted mechanism are on the top.

last cd that i've bought: can't quite remember. it has been quite a long time ago. the last cd i was given was collision course, by linkin park. and the last cd i have copied (lol) was deliverance to earth, by atlanthea (the one-man-band of my good friend rodrigo).

music i'm listening right now: right now, i'm working (booooring), and i'm listening a recorded interview, and copying it to a text document. in other words, a royal pain in the ass. however, if i could be listening to music, i would be listening to endlessly, by muse.

favourite genres: i'm rediscovering the late seventies and the eighties. therefore, joy division and the smiths are now a constant presence on my mp3 player. i really like that kind of musics, most of them older than me. anyway. for a gig, my favourite kind of music is heavy metal, and a good moshpit. i like a bit of everything, but above all, i like well played music. to give you an example: jack johnson is good, the guy sings okay and plays decently. but he is frankly overrated. he's a good musician - but compare him to tom yorke, from radiohead, or matthew bellamy, from muse. those are different kinds of musics, you might say. true, they are, but still - the way jack plays and sings, many others could play and sing. but yorke and bellamy are unique in their style - and they are the best. jack johnson entertains, amuses, and you have a nice time listening to his songs. radiohead and muse get into your hearts, trigger emotions. and that's all about talent. so i like talented musicians and talented bands, that's all.

okay, it's done. passing it over to angie (again) and alice (again).
