My Name Is Hennessy And I\'m A Music Nazi..
 

You heard right, I am a music nazi.
I like almost no pop, I've seen one picture of Lady Gaga and wouldn't be able to pick her out of a line up.
I never know who's number one in the charts,that are so ovine oriented:devil:.
If I have no cds in the car then I'll listen to Xfm but I'll always prefer to listen to my extensive back catalogue of classic ,blues, metal, hip hop, soul, bluegrass, folk, rock, electronica, funk, opera, ragtime, breakbeat, etc etc I really could go on.
Some people say they like everything but they always change their tune when I try to put on a Robert Johnson cd.
If I hear something on the tv I don't like I will walk away so I can't see it.
I take the mick out of my friends for likeing two avril lavigne songs.
I play guitar, bass, piano (not so good) and harmonica.
I have over 400 Gbs worth of music so I don't need to listen to the radio.
I've got 60 Nina Simone records so why should I know Lady Gaga?
I almost didn't go out with my ex because she listens to Usher and Leonel Richie
ps try to check out the genius that was Chris Whitley esp. Dirt Floor

ok rant over:devil:

What was your previous username

ghostface77

real music nazis love Wagner's Ring cycle.

Wagner is epic
The Valkyrie being my fave obv.
it has nothing to do with him being Hitler's fav composer lol

Sounds boring :dazzler:

what does?
Delving into hundreds of years of music spanning tons of genre, listening to Janis Joplin, BB King, Scott Joplin, Chopin, Bessie Smith, Etta James, Afrika Bambaataa, Bob Dylan, Leadbelly, Miles Davis etc?
Following Disney stars music and being caught up in the current ovine charts sounds boring to me.
It's called music appreciation

I like all the classics, as well as Lady Gaga, and all the others, I also listen to Eminem and Akon, not forgetting 50 Cent, I love Evenesance, and I also love Kasabian, Oasis is a great band, Johnny Cash and Elvis are legends, as is Frank Sinatra, Robbie Williams and Take That are also among my favourites, sometimes I like Britney Spears too, The Buggles were a great 80's band, MJ was a great singer, also Scooter makes pretty good Hardcore music.

First and last time you will all see those names in one paragraph :bigsmile:

you say you like Elvis, johny Cash and Sinatra but do you own 1 album or even 2 of them?

No, but I dont own any albums apart from Akon, Eminem and Robbie, I have youtube for the rest

I don't know how to respond to that.
You know artist release a lot more stuff that doesn't end up on youtube?
sounds like you're not actually that into music at all

Well, 99.9% of the music ends up on Youtube you know

it really doesn't.
also haven't they started to ban music videos now.

anyway, I never said I was a dedicated fan to them, just that I enjoy listening to them, I enjoy listening to most music (unless its some middle aged man being depressing)

Pfft. I love Lionel Richie.

People like what they enjoy. Everyone's tastes are different, and some people are more enthusiastic about music than others. It also depends what artists they are exposed to. I don't know anyone on this site who has heard any of Jim Thirlwells' recordings (aka Foetus etc) for instance. However, one member listened to a track I posted and loved it. Most of the bigger radio stations are mainstream and only play a very small minority of the music that is out there.

I had a japanese import of Scraping Foetus Off The Wheel - Nail when I used to listen to skinny puppy and NIN

Ok but taking the mick out of your friends for likeing two avril lavigne songs is a bit low imo

Yeah most people who listen to Foetus like those artists too. Funnily enough I never did. I preferred the likes of Coil, Test Department and Swans. Etc..

ugh yeh i hate all the generic samey female pop artists. little boots. gaga. la roux

sucks.

thank you nathan
I hate that music that won't last 10 years

Sounds more like music snobbery to me.

IKR music snobs are so annoying

May I ask hennessy how old they are? I am just interested to know.

I'm not suprised people dont listen to songs called "Foetus"

sounds creepy and weird
