An Apology, with Embarressment

[eleneariel]

Having so loudly and publicly maligned it, it is only right that I equally loudly and publicly make this announcement:

Ladies and gentlemen, I, Marie, do hereby declare that I no longer hate jazz.

That is all.

I didn't figure you for a jazz kind of guy. Hm.

Most people are suprised by the music I listen to. You'd think at first that I'm one of those die hard rock and roll / heavy metal kind of guys. Which I am. But they're just one of many kinds of genres I like.

Variety is a good thing.

I used to say I liked every kind of music except for jazz and rap. I guess I'm down to just rap now, and come to think of it, there is that one song... ; )

[wandering-flame.livejournal.com]

Which one? 50 cent? eminem? Ludacris? ;-)

*blush*

eminem

But I'm not admitin' nothin'! And it's just one song!

Ooh, I bet it's the one with Dido in it, right? I actually liked that one because it was the first time I had ever heard Dido.

I like Dido, but I'm not even sure I've heard that one. I was thinking of one he wrote about his daughter..."When I'm Gone" is the title, I think. I mean, yeah, he's a completely unattractive and usually disgusting person but even that kind of man can be heartbreaking singing rapping about a little daughter.

Was it the letter to stan one?

Since I'm not sure what you're talking about, probably not. ; )

I'm afraid I can't help you learn to love rap. =) I only have a small amount of music that could be considered hip hop of any variety, and it's not that great. Although I do sometimes enjoy some older hip-hop, or modern hip hop if it's musical enough (and not offensive). But it's really rare when I can stand anything that's considered plain old rap.

It's the not-offensive part that's so hard to find. Sometimes I hear some songs that I think are kind of neat, until I figure out what the words are. =P
