    This is a bit of an odd one really, never been able to get my head around it...

    I have a few friends and know a couple other people that have absolute NO interest in music. This is absolute madness in my mind, how someone could survive without it is beyond me...

    So how bout it... Any of you freaks people on boards?

    I don't think it's possible to vote no. Music is everywhere. TV, Radios, Shops, etc.

    I don't really. I don't have a soul for it to appeal to.

    They're probably telling you they don't because you bang on about it so much. I know people like you, and you make me dislike discussing music. ;) (if you're one of those people of course)

    Listen by choice ie. listen to music as entertainment...

    Wasn't asking if people go around with ear protectors to avoid it...

    I go through phases of listening & not listening to music (tbh i do that with everything, haven't listened to radio for past 4 months).

    at the moment i am listening to ambient, easy listening, chilled out kind of music.

    Someone tries to take music away from me, I take their life. No negotiation:mad:

    Anyone who doesn't listen to music is a freak of nature, and I fart in your general direction.


  • Registered Users Posts: 26,556 ✭✭✭✭Creamy Goodness


    according to my last.fm i've listend to 63 tracks today well since 00:00am.

    that's actually quite high consider i was asleep from 2:00-11:30.

    should have made the poll public so we could lynch the gingers that voted no :pac:

    Music is my life. My brother got a car 3 years ago and all it has is a crappy radio and tape player. I'm in a state of shock that he still ahsn't got a CD player for it. That woulda been the first thing I get. Even before petrol.

    I'm listening to music right now! To drown out the death metal my housemate is listening to across the room.

    DAMN!


  • Registered Users Posts: 81,223 ✭✭✭✭biko


    Yes but I'm not glued to my mp3 player either :) Usually listen in the car, just got a stereo with USB so can now load up what I feel like listening to every morning.


  • Registered Users Posts: 17,187 ✭✭✭✭IvySlayer


    I love music, can't live without it. I listen to around 50 songs a day.

    Didn't think gingers were allowed to listen to music in the first place. :confused:

    I would go tunefully crazy if I hadn't my music.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,497 ✭✭✭✭Dragan


    I listen to a **** load of music. Wake up in the morning and head to work, listening to music. Get in and say hello, sit down at 9:30 and listen to music nonstop at my desk, breaking only for meetings. So call it about 5 hours of listening to music. Arrive home and stick on a mix by Ghosty or Peter Worth or Decline to chill out after the day, then load up Win Amp with a playlist depending on the mood and listen until i go to bed. Hit the hay and stick on something like Dream Theatre, Opeth of Fat Freddies Drop, anything that is good to fall asleep to.

    I'd say on weekdays i spend about 80% of my time awake listening to music. Weekends even more.

    I know a lot of people say "I listen to music. If there's nothing on the TV I will switch it off and just listen to music." I have yet to meet someone who actually does this though.

    I've reminded people of their words and the main excuses are "Ah, I can't really be arsëd." "I can never decide what to listen to." and "Oh yeah, I used to do that, when I lived at home."


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 29,130 ✭✭✭✭Karl Hungus


    Yes. It's safe to say, I do.

    Yep. Apparently it's "too much hassle" trying to decide what songs to put on, whether to play the whole album, if not then they have to keep changing...
    :confused: - I don't get it either.

    Now, I can't say that's too strange. I feel like that sometimes, like I can't decide between one thing or the other.
