Does it really matter people? Are we going to start picking out partners on what we want the ideal person we want?

[ZEROpumpkins]

Yes

[PAULYBEE2656]

are we all really that shallow? what a boring place the world would be if we all liked the same thing.

[ZEROpumpkins]

Yes

[pbradley]

I can understand logical reasons why some people don't like Sonic Youth. They're vocals aren't the greatest, vocals and lyrics in general take a second seat, some people are bored by guitar noise rocking, etc.

[king_buzzo]

yes.

[PAULYBEE2656]

i can understand why some people dont like sy. in the same way i dont like italian techno dance.

What on earth is wrong with you? etc.

By which I mean, however important SY are to me (not very > not at all lately) doesn't really make any odds to me or whoever I'm sticking my genitals in/ around/ towards. I'm sure they'll like something I won't, and I'm sure we'll have contrasting opinions on more important things, like politics (in the broadest sense).

Arguments are fun. I would be very hesitant about marrying someone with the same taste as me. "Boy, Sonic Youth sure are ok, aren't they?" "They sure are baby" [pause] "What exactly are we going to do for the next 40 years then?"

[su x*]

im sorry, if its italian it must be quality

i would probably slap a girl if she started talking about nickelback (and similar crap) as having depth or poetry... otherwise everyone i know likes mainstream poo

i now decided that i will make friends in uni with the first pple that like sy :P

[PAULYBEE2656]

glice, i think my comment may have been misinterpreted somehow. im in total agreement with you.

As an aside... These days, I have more love for Radiohead than Sonic Youth and just about any other existing/working band.

I don't know man. 40 years living with someone with completely different taste in music would drive me up a wall. What if they liked Toby Keith?

Also, I'm very defensive of my taste, so if this theoretical woman that doesn't like Sonic Youth is outspoken, it is just a recipe for disaster, because she probably hates a lot of other stuff I like and there would be plent of arguments. Also since I play noisy fuzzy arty stuff interspersed with melodies, I'd know that she secretly dislikes my stuff too.

[Trasher02]

The girls I've fallen in love with all had decent taste in music, so I wouldn't really know if I'd be able to love someone with a shit taste in music. I don't think it's mandatory to have the same taste in music though it is certainly a turn-on.
Nonetheless I do think that having mutual interests is important in a relationship. How can you love someone if that person doesn't like anything you like?

[Cantankerous]

yeah i could. i don't really give a fuck whether someone likes sonic youth or anything else that i like.

[Everyneurotic]

someone who didn't love sy? yes, why not?

Yeah, yeah... my tone of voice doesn't carry on the internet, I was following on from your post and stuff. Word.

[hat and beard]

I love lots of people who don't like Sonic Youth.

[uhler]

that's it! when i get married all that is going to play is sonic youth. and if my bride doesn't like it then fuck her and i'm going to dump her on the dance floor while i'm doing the worm to she's in a bad mood. that's what she gets for not enjoying the same things as me on our wedding day.

Hahahaha. I don't think I could do an all Sonic Youth wedding reception if I got married. A lot of their stuff isn't very condusive to dancing. Well traditional undrunken dancing that is.

Could you imagine a wedding reception with a bride who has completely different taste in DANCE music? Now that would be a disaster. She'd want to do the electric slide, you'd want to do the time warp.

The only thing I would rather have is that we can have a conversation about anything. Also to not be a prude about certain things.
