Do You Hear What I Hear

So I left today.  I left and I took the kids with me.  We went out to Walmart, saw the sights.  Played with some toys, bought some meds for daddy.  Bought Evanescence's new album.  You know, my taste in music is quite eclectic.  The only reason I brought that up was so I could write the word eclectic in a sentence.  Fickle of me, ain't it?

My eclectic taste in music.  Yes, I'm a bit of a fan of country (*gasp* I just said the f word as relating to music).  Yes, I'm a bit of a fan of classical.  I'm a bit of a fan of alternative, and metal, and (you better sit down for this one) I even like a bit of rap now and again.  Rap though, has got to have a point.  As I think back - hang on, I've got to deal with a few unruly apps on my computer - ok, sorry about that.  Stupid autorun, tryin to tell me what I want to do with my CD.  As I think back to the times I've enjoyed rap, Bone Thugs N Harmony comes to mind.  Hang on, another interruption...  ... ... ... ... ... ... ...  Ok, back again.  Rap, I rather enjoyed that one song by Coolio with Biggie what's-his-name-dead-guy.  You know, that one that was in the movie with Michele Pfeiffer about the inner city teacher that Wierd Al did about the Amish Paradise...  Oh yeah Gangster's Paradise, or whatever.  But that's enough about rap crap.

I like some of all of it pretty much.  All of some of it would just be too much liking going on.  That wouldn't be eclectic either now would it?  I like some jazz, some blues, some pop, some...no, most rock.  Yeah, if I had to pick one genre that was my favorite, it would have to be rock I supposed.  That one contains probably the majority of the songs that I like.  Sometimes I get in a mood for classical.  Beethoven has always been a favorite of mine thought I wouldn't recognize any of his music except for symphony 9 which nearly everyone recognizes.

Where was I going with all this?  Ah, who knows.  I'm not in much of a mood today (actually I am in a bit of a mood...but that's another story for another time) for humor and I feel I'm just rambling on about nonsense so I'll spare you any more drivel and just leave you with a song from another time in my life when I was younger than I am now...
