I don't know what to think, as I have developed a tendency to listen to a LOT of music genres lately.
Ho hum.
Ha ha ha, that was great. I like at least 4 of those 13 genres. What a complex personality I must have.

I also saw that article. It was pretty bad because of the fact that it is very low on details. Besides, I find it very hard to put music and personalities in boxes like they try in the article.

I just saw, fans of Rap have a high self-esteem and are outgoing...I'm not surprised that I am not surprised about that. (Well, duh!)


I am also one of the people who likes many genres. In fact, one of the questions I dread the most is always "So, what kind of music do you like/listen to?". I can only ever say "Um, whatever I like.". Meaning basically it can be *anything*. Heck, Fanta4's "Die da" made me realise I actually have a favourite Hiphop song (I guess exceptions from the rule just enforce the truth of the general rule).

Soo, what does that guy say about the character of people who "Just like music".

I tend to have a strong preference for music that's in D major or Eb major, depending on the instrumentation. I wonder what that says about me?

D minor is the key that makes people weep.

D minor is also F major, which I don't actually like all that much. For shame.

I guess he either says you don't exist because you don't fit in his system, or you have a high self-esteem, are creative, outgoing, gentle and at ease, introvert, hardworking, not hardworking, not gentle, have a low self-esteem, and are not at ease.

I like F minor and D flat major. D major is also good.

Getting the correct key is important. Particularly when you have perfect pitch.

Db major is Andrew Lloyd Webber's favourite. Incidentally, I do like the songs he writes in that key. And I also like several Sinatra songs that feature it. So yeah, Db major is good. Just a little harder to play in.

Unless you play the piano, in which case it's one of the easiest keys. Which may be why I lean towards it .

I like those Willem. Very crisp. I took one photography class back in highschool. It was a lot of fun. My mom took photograghy too. She was always trying to take "artistic" pictures of us as kids. (me and my brother)

The only thing I really learned, was to load film in the dark. LOL.

I think you just missed all the bad pictures MystGirl. I spent a lot of time removing all 102 of them yesterday. The 8 you see in the set were the only ones worth keeping. I will send the picture of the girl in the bus in for the contest.

P.S. please call me tsa in the forums! Thank you.

I hate B major. There, I said it. For both guitar and piano, it's just a groaner. Thank Darwin for the capo... but there's still the piano.

But...what's wrong with H major?


(yeah, I got sick of no one asking "What the heck is 'H'?". )

The cake is a lie.

I do however have some TimTam slightly over the best before date, as well as a box full of assorted other international sweets, which we could share. ^_^
