Musical Variance

I hate it when people say, "I have a wide taste of music" yet stick to one radio station, only listen to the top forty, don't recognize any other genres, scorn classical music, cringe at the word diversity, and hate on certain artists or styles of music. 

So believe me when I say I have a wide taste in music. I'm diverse. I'm adaptable. Yes I have the music I will go to more than others but it's not like there are many radio stations (in my area at least) that will play everything that I like. There is the pop station (which I mainly listen to for the talk hosts who are hilarious), the oldies station (which I listen to on occasion), the Christmas station (which I'm inseparable from around the time of Thanksgiving to New Years), and the alternative rock station (which I listen to on occasion). 

I don't like the pop station any more than the others, and trust me, I really hate some of the music it will play, but it's easiest to get to, ha the best sound quality, and has the largest variety. I will honestly listen to just about anything you put in front of me. Dubstep? Not my favorite, but give me am hour or so and I'll have a new go to genre. Classical? I love it, but not if I'm in a singing mood. Musicals? Depends if I know it or not. Rock? Turn it up. Country? Again, not my favorite, but I don't listen to it a lot so you never know. Jazz? Yes. Rap? Not a big fan, but it's not too bad; there's some great artists out there. Covers? Depends on the song and if it's done well. Celtic? You have no idea how much I love me some Celtic music. Any of the other genres I'm too scatterbrained to think of? Go for it I'm all in. 

I also hate it when my family will say "don't listen to her music she has bad taste" or classify my musical preferences into one genre because I am just as happy listening to what they like as I am listening to Tom Milsom on YouTube. So give me Elton John, give me Johnny Cash, George Watsky, Adele, Beethoven, Christina Aguilera, Benny Goodman, Death Cab for Cutie, Avenged Sevenfold, Opera, Metallica, Eminem, The Beatles, Pink Floyd, Punch Brothers, Bribry, Parachute, an whatever other crap you can think of, I'll probably love it. Can you say the same?

Why I Love Sundays

I don't much care for Sunday and it's not my favorite day of the week. In fact, it's one of my least favorite days of the week. I much prefer Monday, which is one of my favorite days of the week. 

Sundays should be more like Mondays in my opinion. But nobody ever seems to like Mondays and I don't get that. It's sad. I mean, I genuinely love Mondays. There isn't one bit of sarcasm in my voice when I say that, and if you knew me you'd know I'm telling the truth.  So after a Sunday, Monday seems that much better. So thank you, Sunday, for picking up Monday.
