I agree with you. Emotion is not the only component of good music. However, music without emotion is not music at all. Anyways, what sort of music do YOU like? Do you even like anything at all? Or do you simply enjoy belittleing the opinions of others, while keeping your preferences secret to aviod other people criticizing your choice of music?

Opera? Nooooooooooooo...........

I have used music for years to affect how people think, feel when they watch productions. Music is as much a part of life as air.

Yeah, Opera. Waltz is good too. I remember have three discs of Strauss in the changer while playing Duke Match (multiplayer Duke Nukem 3D) for hours at a time.

Invigorating.

Remember, the Ride of the Valkyries is from Wagner's opera, but it's a damn good piece by itself. Personally, I can't stand operas either, but I do like classical music. At least the bombastic, thunderous type of music.

There is something rather grand about having Gustav Holst's the "planets suite" on whilst playing SEIVG.

I do like going into battle with the sounds of "Mars - Bringer of War" kicking off in my earhole. It just is a bit annoying however when SEIVG seems to make the tracks jump about
