9. What band or Artist do you love musically but hate most?
Eminem. I love the sound of his music, but I have no respect for his message.

From that perspective, I guess I understand the question now. I don't think an "active listener" like myself can answer the question though. If I don't like it I'm not listening.

22. Don't try to pretend you don't!
It is just plain stupid to assume that everyone likes Journey.

That was supposed to be a tad bit of humour, Mr. Fisher.

Say from '98 to '03, with some exceptions of course. Most current music that I listen to (rock mostly) sucks horribly. It's not even rock, it's some bastardized crap.

Will you win the Music Poll Award for being the first person to pick:

#5. What are five old but good songs?
1. Imagine - by John Lennon

I was hoping one or more of you would pick it.


As to summing you up, the song I chose sums me and my life up without fail. Listen to it and you'll know more about me than I could possibly ever tell you.
