My turn to answer some of these 音乐 questions!
1. Who is your all-time favourite artist?
Anyone who knows anything about me will know this one – it's the Beatles!
2. What is your favourite musical genre?
I like a number of musical genres, including 1960s pop, other soft pop, certain types of rock & roll, newer country (1990s and 2000s in particular), Broadway soundtrack, 迪士尼 soundtrack – anything lyric-and-emotion oriented.
3. Are there any genres 你 don’t like?
Hip-hop, anything too electronic, modern pop songs with raps in them, 或者 that have been tampered with too much and now sound 更多 “machine” than human, anything too hard and heavy, anything without words (with the exception of instrumental pieces from films, because then at least I have some story to associate them with).
4. Who was the last artist 你 saw live?
A Beatles tribute band called the Caverners.
5. What artist have 你 seen the most live?
I saw this Beatle impersonator – he does all four at different times – twice.
6. Name one artist you’ve never seen live but would really 爱情 to.
I mean, seeing any Beatle live would be nice.
7. Do 你 listen to 音乐 on Spotify?
Yes, lots of the time. I don't quite like their mentality of taking up all your listening time at the expense of every other streaming platform, radio, 或者 音乐 collection out there, but – what can I say? They do have almost everything.
8. Do 你 listen to 音乐 on Pandora?
No, I haven't. I don't think 你 can 搜索 individual songs on Pandora. That's what I'd be interested in. 你 can probably tell from the “favourite genre” 问题 that my liking one song is no guarantee I'll like another song someone else might consider similar!
9. Have 你 ever bought 音乐 off iTunes?
No, but I'd like to. Support the artist and all that.
10. How many songs do 你 have on your cell phone?
I think around four. I don't usually keep them there. They take up space.
11. Do 你 pay attention to any 音乐 charts?
No. I might if the genres I like were 更多 mainstream, but I don't think the charts will help me find new stuff to listen to, and I'm certainly not going to decide I like a song just because they tell me to.
12. Have 你 ever shopped at record store?
Ooh, I'd like to. I have shopped at stores that sell records, but that's not quite the same thing.
13. Have 你 ever read a book written 由 a musician?
I read the children's book that Paul wrote. It was good.
14. From 1-10, rate your 唱歌 ability.
I'll go with 8 because there is room for improvement, but I am very good at it.
15. Do 你 like karaoke?
Yes! I mean, I've never done it in front of anyone besides my family – yet – but I'm sure I would like it in 更多 public settings too.
16. What is your 最喜爱的 song to sing in the shower?
Ah, I don't do that anymore. The walls are too thin. My family can hear me sing even in the shower. I'd sing whatever came into my head, though, no specific song for every time.
17. Can 你 play any instruments?
I do play the guitar, though I'm not as good with that as I am with singing.
18. Have 你 ever written a song?
Sure, plenty of them.
19. Name one musician 你 wish was still alive.
Well, I can say both John and George, because the Beatles are all one person really :)
20. Will 你 listen to a song if it has screaming in it?
.... my first thought is “no”, but define screaming.
21. Do 你 have any posters 或者 pictures of a musical artist on your bedroom wall?
Sure, I have two Beatles posters and some glossies.
22. Name a song that makes 你 cry.
Both “Ask Me Why” and “The Long and Winding Road” always did, for completely different reasons.
23. Name a song that makes 你 want to be a better person.
Well, “be a better person” leaves a lot to interpretation, but there are a couple of country songs: “I Wanna Do It All” 由 Terri Clark and “Big Star” 由 Kenny Chesney, that I find very inspiring when I need that boost.
24. How many songs do 你 have on your computer?
I think it must be around four hundred. I tried to count but I was having trouble holding the numbers in my head.
25. Do 你 own any movie soundtracks?
Yes, I have the soundtrack to “Aladdin” on MP3. I have “Yellow Submarine”, too, but I think of that as a Beatles album, not a movie soundtrack, even though it kind of is one.
26. What is your favourite song from a movie?
“A Whole New World” from Aladdin, “Part Of Your World” from The Little Mermaid – do things like “Help!” count, 或者 was that not written for the movie?
27. Do 你 own any albums from a musical?
Yes, I have the “Les Miserables” soundtrack – the original English version from 1986. I don't go for tragic stories, but I just 爱情 the 音乐 from that show.
28. Do 你 have any guilty pleasure artists?
What would constitute a “guilty pleasure” artist? An artist I'm ashamed to admit I like?? Something feels wrong about that....
29. Have 你 ever gotten a song 你 dislike stuck in your head?
*sighs * Yep. Somehow that can be easier than getting a song 你 爱情 and have played a million times stuck in your head....
30. Do 你 listen to any religious music?
Yes, we have a few CDs of Jewish 音乐 in our house, which are quite good.
That's it from me today. Hope 你 enjoyed. Leave a nice 评论 below if 你 did :)
