Not only is that statement highly unlikely, but it also makes it basically impossible to progress the conversation.

What the **** am I supposed to say next?

"Oh, well if you've heard everything, what are your thoughts on TMR?"
"Everything? Huh. What's your favourite Eric Dolphy album?"

Nah bitch, give me a few bands/genres/artists that you're particularly fond of and we'll go from there.
This is assuming the person actually wants to have a conversation about music. I've gone the route of listing bands or genre's I'm into at the moment only to be met with those glazed eyes I was talking about. If they really want to talk about music, I ask them what they listen to and I can work from there.
