Guys really no classical music? film composititions??? They're kinda essential to kinda feel the shivers

It is? I've rarely met anybody that listens to classical or film scores.

You can take a black guy to Nashville from right out of the cotton fields with bib overalls, and they will call him R&B. You can take a white guy in a pin-stripe suit who’s never seen a cotton field, and they will call him country. ~ O. B. McClinton

I do, on the regular, and I put on in my top five. The Perfect Sense soundtrack would be near my top ten, if not in it. Of course.... I play the cello. lol Maybe that has something to do with it.

A few of my relatives had that Walter Murphy Band record with 5th Of Beethoven if that counts. lol When I was growing up, the only place I heard classical music was in cartoons. The music teachers at school didn't play it either.

Something by:

Shakira - Laundry Service
Teena Marie - Has to be greatest hits
Prince - Has to be greatest hits (or great love songs)
Nirvana - Nirvana
No Doubt - Has to be greatest hits

Don't quote me on that. neutral

You've almost done it! Choose one album from each!

Yeah, I know I didn't have the albums, just the artists. That's why I said don't quote me. lol

Oh no, honestly man, I listen to a couple hours of classical music 4-5 days a week. Sometime I'll put it on and listen all day, like, 12-15 hours straight. Both of the Comcast classical stations are quite good and they sound great on the surround, so it's easy to put them on and just forget about it. Like aural wallpaper.

Me too. And Mozart made my top 5.

There was hardly any jazz in top 5 lists, which isn't surprising either, considering how uncouth

taste is around here.

^^^ It was VERY hard for me to leave off The Cure's Disintegration.

And if I found these five albums in a hatch on the island where my plane crashed, I would be happy to listne to them forever.
