I'm so weird when it comes to my music. Yes, I will acknowledge that I am a music whore, fine. I like what I like, no matter if it's "good" or "cool" or whathaveyou. This is a point of consternation for a lot of my friends who ARE indeed super cool people with super cool taste in music. They don't really understand my love for all things Bryan Adams or my need to spend an entire night reveling in Madame Butterfly or the fact that I can sing the entire score of Les Miserables. Ah well, it's the little idiosyncrasies that make you love me, right? ;)
It's not all bad, don't worry. My all-time favorite band is The Beatles. If you went through my music collection you would be very happy at most of what I own. Most.
So today is a pop day for me. More to the point, it's a current pop day. I'm craving upbeat super pointless happy crappy bouncy dancing music that most people would run from. Well run run run little rabbits, I'm all about me some P!nk, Kelly, Matchbox 20, etc today. Don't ask me why, they just seem to be tickling the right spots for me today. Yesterday at the marathon I was singing snippets from a song that I had heard in a VERY crappy movie. Today I went on iTunes and BOUGHT that song. It's just atrocious and I LOVE it. The band is The Veronicas and the song is, wait for it...."4ever". No, I'm not kidding. That's the name of the song.
Apparently today I am thirteen years old. And I LIKE IT. ;)
P.S. No matter how crappy my musical tastes may be, there are certain bands that I will NEVER like. Nickelback is one of them. Blech.
I'm right there with you. Our music collection is so random, it is crazy. Now I need to go and check out 4ever - I'm needing some spunky music today.
My downfall is the bad movies. I watched "Stick It" the other day which was so full of cheese, I loved it! Bad=good in my upside down world. This is, after all, Casa Queso!

Ooh, speaking of cheesy movies: my husband is embarrassed a little for my love of Center Stage, Coyote Ugly and Bring it On. Watching them and getting to make fun of the silliness makes me feel better, almost always. :D

Ah, yes, musical whoreishness. We are all sufferers. :)

Pop is so not my thing. My only 'crappy' musical preference is for punk music. Ohhhhhhh, man. I love me some screaming.

Like you, I also have very eclectic musical tastes. I could put 5 disks in the CD changer that are so different your brain would explode. And there is nothing wrong with a little boppy pop. It's good for that sort of mood. :-)
