Lyrics are rather important to me.
Finally, some boring facts:
And a very important fact:
Favourite football team: AS Roma
So that's it, I guess.

Welcome, Faber,
I, too, inherited a guitar (last year) and have been enjoying playing guitar ever since. Sorry about the fingers. I try to space out my practicing so it doesn't hurt much. I've found the electric guitar strings to be much, much easier on my fingers, so that is one of many reasons I prefer the electric guitar to my acoustic.
I am not familiar with Italian music and will have to look into it! Hip hop, rap, and death metal are not my favorite genres, either, but I've tried to learn more about rap and metal, at least, through MB, by listening to songs people recommend. I enjoy the "stickies" at the top of each genre section describing the evolution of the various genres. Very helpful! Even if I don't like a genre, it is interesting to learn more about it, and usually understanding breeds some affection.
Finally, lyrics that are interesting and provoke thought are vital to me, so I agree with you on the importance of lyrics!
Again, welcome. It's been a while since I've been to Oslo so it is always fun to have new members whose location reminds me of the wider world out there.
