| Classical music is the only way to study, or possibly Celtic. My poor wife is driven nuts by the slow and "foppish" sound of my favourite classical music. She especially hates Bach.
I am currently listening to a tune call StrangeLoveTriangle. Its a "strange" mix of Strange Love by Depeche Mode and Bizarre Love Triangle by New Order. They go together quite well.
I think the main reason these two were mixed was because of the cool combination of names.

| O yeah, I like Scooter too...
I find it to be great music to listen to just before you fence...
It pumps you up mentally but not in a reckless way like with eminem or nirvana... It also keeps you really focused....
Then again I could just be a freak:P |

| Come! come! Lets be a little more laconic please! I am simply whining because I see the little envelope in my taskbar and was looking forward to reading something more than , "yes, all of the above".
What in particular do you like?

| . . . and then there's usually a quote from an old sci-fi movie. . . The System is down. The System is down.
I like punk rock and trance. . . Good stuff.

| What exactly is "alternative" music, anyway? I mean, if I listen to classical, then jazz and rock and pop and everything else are alternatives. If I listen to rock, then classical is alternative. No? |

| "Alternative" doesn't mean an alternative to your usual tastes. I can't say I could really define the term for you, except by giving examples. Maybe the best definition I could give is that it's stuff that doesn't really fit well under any other genre. |

| A bitter and sarcastic comment: "Alternative" pop music is that music where there is a pretense that it isn't controlled by record company executives.

| He?? HE??????? honestly what guy do you know who in their right mind would have the sn tigerlily?? seriously....
Alternative... No genre... same thing. it just means that it doesnt conform to the labels society puts on music... so naturally they have to find a way to label it by calling it "alternative" |

| So in other words, like unicorns and justice it doesn't really exist...'cause EVERYTHING can be shoehorned into SOME genre if you try hard enough. |
