Are you a music pretender?

I've never really liked top 40 music for a long time now. These days it's all the same regenerated electronic music. It has no soul or meaning and lately all the music is about people feeling sorry for themselves.

That all aside, I would genuinely like to know if people actually like today's music? I think younger people are peer pressured into 'enjoying it' when deep down you know it's horrible and deeply shallow.

Do you have older music you prefer to listen to without others knowing for fear of being outcast?

I have [b]never[/b] let anyone shame me out of listening to music I liked, whether it was classical, rap/hip-hop, Greek folk music or Patsy Cline.

@bijouxbroussard I'm pretty much the same. My music goes from U2, Neil Young, cat Stevens, traveling wilburies, etc. I actually find I use that music to connect with memories.
@Laughman I’ve been a Cat Stevens fan since high school...

@bijouxbroussard there is something about his voice that I find incredibly relaxing.
