It's Manda, the brain-injured music teacher from Oz, here.
I would just like to extoll the varied musical tastes of everyone on CDL's
list
as being musically brilliant & inviting.
Thank you all.
Because I actually teach music - my tastes vary from heavy (almost dirge)
classical
to heavy anything - except techno & elevator music (where I often find
myself singing
deliberately nasal harmonies to bleched versions of any song).
My idea of Hell is being force-fed elevator music.
