Looking at these music threads, I see a similarity...

Thrash Core
Punk
Heavy Metal
Extreme pee in a decapitated heads eye socket Metal.

Just wondering, not judging.

I like Metal, and understand the appeal of it.
Yet, I am not afraid to say I listen to Enya.

Any authority you might of had regarding music just got totally ruined when you said you liked Enya.

Hey, Hey.. there is nothing wrong with Enya.

Can I redeem my self....

My top singer is...
Syd Barrett (R.I.P)

If you don't respect the Syd, you know nothing!
If you don't respect the Syd, you don't know music. (goes without saying) ^^
If you don't respect the Syd, I will weep for you.

Dunno. I guess it has something to do with how people listen to music. The main difference I see between myself and a lot of other people is that they like to have something playing as "background noise" while they give their real attention to something else. I hardly ever do that. When I listen to music ALL I'm doing is listening to music. There's just not enough going on in mellow everyday music to stand up to this kind of scrutiny, so when I listen to music it's always something unusually extreme in one direction or another. If it's slow it's got to be really dark and somber or extremely moving in some way. When it's fast it's got to be really powerful and complex. Metal is often really powerful and complex, so that's mostly what I listen to.

Yup. Hell, I even listen to Barry Manilow. :Q I mostly listen to classic rock and mainstream heavy metal, but like most genres. Don't like country, don't like most rap (I do like Eminem, because I'm racist of course), don't like anything that is just a ridiculous display of bass. Anything other than that I'll probably listen to.

365.25 seconds is barely over 6 minutes, let alone a year.

He should have said 24/7/365.25, but yeah.

And if you were going too nitpick it, it would be 365.25 minutes in his post, not seconds.

uh, the common phrase is 365/24/7...where its all 365 days of the year, and every hour of every day of the 7 day week...

saying 365.25 is simply accounting for the leap year as well...

I tried to be cool like everyone else and listen to metal, but it's just not for me. When I'm bored, I listen to Hillary Duff:Q.

Edit: Ineffective emoticon.
