seasonal music

In winter: classical, children's songs, Christmas songs. (As well as drinking songs.)

In spring: anything that takes your mind away from the horrible weather outside. (Especially drinking songs.)

In summer: rock'n'roll'n'blues'n'jazz!, political (read: revolutionary) songs, reggae, punk (...I don't know why), and! Drinking songs!

In autumn: heavy metal and folk songs of any and every kind. Surprisingly, no drinking songs.

On and only on very long car rides: pop. (Pop songs of over ten years of age earn a very special stress on the word only.) Possibly drinking songs but, for the love of all that is holy, never actual drinking.

All through the year: pretty songs with flutes and an elysian sound (which is totally not genre but belongs here anyway), folk songs (viva la repetition), selected jazz pieces (through the year we'll be picky). ...And drinking songs? ([edit] To each their own, what she said.)

In my books, never: rap. ([edit] Techno isn't in my vocabulary, and neither is ska, apparently.)

(Anything to add?)

Your taste in music and mine? Meet each other only on the odd leap day (night) that happens to be both Friday 13th and full moon. And possibly the alignment of the Grand Cross as well.

And why aren't you the one in our school? (Though it could be cured by paying more attention, being interested and being social, period) I don't even know what ska is. *totally knows what punk is. NO. REALLY. almost knows the difference between jazz and blues, too*

Hey, c'mon! We both like folk songs and Apocalyptica and Shina Ringu is pretty cool too. Communist songs, heavy metal, drinking songs, punk - bring it on, baby. NEVER Christmas songs or pop for me (except Sika, Björk and maybe one or two another artsy-fartsy artists), so,

what's the big difference? ;)

WHEN IT COMES TO MUSIC I'M VERY CONSERVATIVE. I DISLIKE ANYTHING EVEN SLIGHTLY DARING.

I'm just PRETENDING to like whatever it is people think I like (...and what I, ah, advertise I like?), in reality I only like CLASSICAL MUSIC. PREFERABLY AT LEAST THREE HUNDRED YEARS OLD. *kills your apocalyptica and björk*

(...this episode brought to you by Ilona, who in all actuality REALLY-really thinks that words "progressive" and "music" together in the same sentence is blasphemy, was extremely freaked out by the word "space-", TOLERATES heavy metal and only in autumn when it, you know, fits the weather or something, and still doesn't know what ska is! :D)
