Have you ever lied to someone about how great their music is because you like them ?

I remember doing that to someone I had a crush on, and now looking back....it was pretty bad music.


No, this is not about you.

I've had guys sing to me over the phone and I've been like "aw, that was actually soothing" because saying "aw I love it or that was great" is a far greater lie that I'm not willing to say because those comments are the reason why you find shit singers embarrassing themselves on x factor and talent shows alike.

@NickiHijab i know, when I watch the audition shows and some people come along and say " my friends and family always tell how I sing so well so i decided to give it a shot" and I'm here thinking "how sad, this person doesn't have one single sincere person in their life".
@NickiHijab OMFG IM SCREAMING

@reflectingmonkey exactly, I'm not gonna be the inspiration behind someone who sounds like a screeching cat and believes others need to hear it too. That is an injustice to everyone involved

Nope, but I've lied to people about their looks, their writing, and any number of other things. I did it not because I liked them, but because I didn't want to hurt their feelings. Never regretted doing it for a moment.

Hahah that's why I don't date musicians. One guy thought he was a rap god and ruined it all for me

No, I have not.

Thing is, I think people lie to me about liking the music I like, just because they like me...

@Keepitsimple damn, sorry god lol
green day..
gawd i hate that whiny shit.. but chicks dig it..
@TheOneyouwerewarnedabout it is super whiny but, I appreciate the whiny !
reflectingmonkey51-55, M
I don't lie but i can wiggle around a question with a lot of agility if I happen to not like the music; its very original, it reminds me of "some particular band", I like the way the drum track starts, it gives a very "some kind of quality" vibe etc. I can comment on it for 10 minutes without ever saying I like it, which would be a lie, or say that I hate it, which might actually be how I feel.
SW-User
Nope, I usually say if I like it or not.
@SW-User I wish I was so bold
SW-User
@Stark haha I may just stay quiet and smile as well 馃榿馃榿馃榿
lol no, ill be more like eww what the fuck is this.

@Stark it鈥檚 so hard when it鈥檚 art. And I鈥檓 a terrible liar.

I lied about liking hockey!,
SW-User
No, if I don't like a song or an album, I'll say it's not my kind of thing and leave it at that.

On the other hand, there was one time when I loved something, told the writer that... and felt he didn't believe me -- which, to say the least, worried me for a very long time.
Ryannnnnn31-35, M
No but I remember laughing when this guy who I hated sang and I still feel a bit bad about it. Was funny though 馃ぃ he was being earnest as well.
KmuhfknC36-40, F
Yes and I regret it. That is a requirement for friendships and relationships we gotta vibe and have similar tastes in music

Coming from a guy (me) who enjoys music but can't even carry a note, I can't lie.
Stopmakingsense56-60, F
No, but I've pretended not to be annoyed so someone could learn.
SW-User
That would require someone to like me first

Replace music with painting and yes I've done that

@Stark it was horrible. Having to pretend that I thought her work was genius when it was awful.

Never again 馃槀
reflectingmonkey51-55, M
@SW-User @Stark agree with both of you, its worst with art. for some reason THE worst for me is poetry, god, when someone asks if I can comment on a poem they wrote I just hope for some distraction to save me, like an earthquake or a fire.
SW-User
@reflectingmonkey I didn't even think of poetry. Mainly because I don't know many people who write it besides myself.

I think that would be even worse. A lot of poems I've read have been almost pain-inducing

Naw I'm too honest when it comes to people asking me stuff .it gets me into trouble sometimes 馃ぃ
