Bands/artists you like but everyone else hates (singer, jazz)

Chicken And Waffuls · 01-18-2006, 05:53 PM

im a huge fan of norah jones. alot of my friends dont like her because she is jazz but i really like her music.

If you like Nora Jones you should listen to Madeline Peyroux she is an awesome jazz singer who reminds me of Billy Holiday and covers a Between the Bars.

With that said I listen to alot of music that my friends dont. Mainly punk. Im also a big fan of Pat benatar, Tiffany, Blondie(I have a blondie backpatch) and other female groups from the 80s. Im getting more into grind on occaasion to which 80% of the population finds totally intolerable.

O yea and I like alkaline trio(specifically old) and alot of people write them off as sellouts.

Crowe · 01-19-2006, 01:34 PM

why would people write them off as sell outs? nobody i know does that, and they are my favorite band.

i have a ton of guilty pleasures. simple plan for one. i know, it's disgraceful. i also like green day, a lot, and i have since i was 5 or 6, so i didn't jump on a band wagon. but now it's cool to hate green day. so there that is.

other than my guilty pleasures, i usually like to think of myself as a man with good taste in music.

I have serious and not so serious tastes and I too think J.P. kicks (or more likely kicked) almighty anus. No pun intended Rob.

yeah, a couple of my friends take the piss out of me for liking Priest. In my whole school, I know two Priest fans.

i totally disagree with you there. Judas are well loved all over the world and are and always will be known as for being the great METAL GODS so in saying that of course there well loved. and there's more then a few metal kids that like them, and to love them all you really have to do is have respet for what they opened up the doors to.. more great and powerful metal bands. and really when you look at it liking/ loving Priest doesn't mean bad taste. i mean new priest and how they sound now in there comback isn't as great as what ti was compared to the 80's but i mean you can't say that liking them means bad taste as a hole. if you think it about them now beacause of the sound then say so, but you can't bash them back then to be more in depth about what your saying because that band was THE greatest metal band in the world at one point and are still worshiped for there music even if its not as great as it was.

bands that i get made fun of for liking..

the spill canvas
bonjovi
breaking benjamin
cold
chevelle
alkaline trio
element eighty
hawthorne heights
modest mouse
the monkeys

and yea i think thats it..

alot of people i know also like those bands too.. but yea this town is pretty much into "rap" and thats about it.. and most of the bands i just said there are still unknown here.. only the odd few know about bands such as those around here.. anyways yea..
