We don't share taste in music.
My favourite is In the Army Now by Status Quo.
I personally am never embarrassed of any music I like. |

There's a word for your music. I don't know what it is...but there is a word for it.
I like some of those songs (very few of them...like two I think)...and there are some that I've never heard...But none are my favorites.
Why would you be embarrassed? These are bands people listen to. Maybe not in such a huge amount...but still. If people give me crap for the music I listen to..I say, "But it's sooo catchy."
I don't need to justify my tastes. Especially considering the stuff that 17-19 year olds typically listen to. |

I like "Chasing Cars" and "Streets of Philadelphia" and "American Pie"...I know, and like very much, those three songs. Since I do not know any of the others, it is hard to say that your taste in music is eclectic. The three that I just mentioned would certainly fit into the same genre of music. |

Ummm... I've always loved the message of this song. Just wanting to be left alone and wanting to scream when folks are concerning themselves with issues that don't have anything to do with them. Wanting to scream because so many people have such destructive notions on life and how to live it. It's just a frustrated song that speaks to me on many different levels. |

Oh... I finished my list.  This list changes all the time, I'm sure. But that's how it looks today.
21 - Leave Me Alone - Michael Jackson
Things haven't been easy since Thursday and I'm pooped and just want the people in my life to bug off for a while. |

People want to get all up in other people's lives because it makes them feel better about themselves to think of someone else as doing things incorrectly, making mistakes, doing something embarrassing, committing crimes, doing things condemn-worthy... I figured that out. All the criticisms, interventions, buttinski behavior. It's all about people wanting to feel better than someone else. |
