i can’t wait
Dear my taste in music.
We’ve had some good times, right? We’ve been having fun together, for what? At least 18 years now. Remember when we discovered karaoke? Remember when we branched out from Backstreet Boys and dc Talk and discovered fun music? Remember screaming Linkin Park lyrics with Kristi in the front seat of her Powder-blue Celica?
Yeah, those were good times.
And then we had a Boyfriend who introduced us to even better music, like Modest Mouse and Gogol Bordello and we started wishing we knew how to play the accordion because hot damn that is freaking amazing music, and then someone gave us a Journey CD and we memorized all of the words to Separate Ways (Worlds Apart) because it is the most amazing song we had ever heard in the entire world?
So, my taste in music. We’ve come to this point. We’re growing up. And I think we can, with some work, grow up together, but, like I said, we’re growing up, and listening to Grown Up music, and giving David Bowie a chance (even though his music makes us dizzy sometimes) and realizing that the screechy guitar music Dad has always listened to is actually pretty cool.
But, really, my taste in music.
Miley Cyrus?
REALLY?
Please, I don’t want to leave you, my taste in music. We’re going to have to figure this out. She just doesn’t fit in between The White Stripes and Nine Inch Nails and Franz Ferdinand. I think that if we’re going to stay together, she’s going to have to go.
Love,
me.

Does she…does she know that the pointer finger is not offensive?

@Jessica I think she’s being all, “Get over heerrrrrre!”, but it totally looks like she’s trying to flip us off, and failing!

I’ve heard one Miley Cyrus song in its entirety. I can’t remember the name of it, only that it was vaguely reggae-ish, very dancey, and involved “hip-hop” and “hoedown”.
Then again, I shouldn’t judge. I have Billy Joel and Britney Spears on my iPod.

If you want to see the most hilarious music video ever that wasn’t intended to be hilarious, watch “Seven Things I Hate About You.” God help us all.

*pats* Don’t worry dear, this is completely normal behavior for healthy, growing Tastes in Music. Mine certainly has a few shameful pop idols skeletons in the closet. I can’t actually think of any songs I have heard by Miley Cyrus, but I won’t judge.
But. What is this MADNESS about music better than Linkin Park. Is it true???? How can you transcend that?
CRAAWWWWWWLING IN MY SKIIIIIIINNNN…

@Amanda Billy Joel is AMAZING. But yeah, I have loads of embarassing music, but this Miley Cyrus stuff just seems like a whole new phase of not-so-cool…
@Vanessa I… I just watched it. And was mezmerized! It’s right up there, I think with My favourite music video ever, Shine On Me! haha.
@Kristi S-sorry! That was OBVIOUSLY a typo! (THESE WOUUNDS THEY WILLL NOT HEALLLLLLL)
@Laura Oh goodness. Thank you for that reassurance. It’s never going to be either, so I guess I’m safe!
(BREAK THOSE, CHAINS THAT BIIIND YOUUU)
