I’m the same way. I also usually have nobody to share it with, because either they’re not interested in obscure French bands or they’ve been listening to The Killers since they came out whereas I just “discovered” them because I don’t listen to the radio!

So what kind of music do you like these days?

I think itunes is the worst thing for the unadventurous because you can get just the song you hear on the radio and you aren’t forced to listen to a whole album like on cd’s, or tapes and christ even records. Technology is kindof a bummer sometimes.

Linds has hit on a great idea for another blog post: ask your readers for an artist or album or song that they’d recommend to you. I did that on my blog a while back and was pleasantly surprised–there were a couple clunkers, but they were vastly outnumbered by artists I would never have checked out on my own but really liked.

PQ, I could have written this post. I like my ‘old’ music, and often don’t give ‘new’ music a chance. I have found, though, like others have commented, that going to an exercise class is a good way to find new music – especially if you’re looking for music to add to your workout playlist. I DO, however, need to broaden my horizons and find some music a little more calming/soothing.

Great topic!! New music is really important to me, especially to make working out something to look forward to. I have a good friend who is always on the cutting edge of the musical scene – she makes CDs for me and mails them periodically. It’s fun because I never know what’s going to be on them but she knows my musical taste pretty well so I usually love everything. I’ve never heard of Pandora – after reading all the comments above I’m definitely going to try it! Thanks PastaQueen for your great blog!

You give voice to my reasons for seeking out new music, Pasta Queen. If I could be allowed to tell you about “a pretty thing” I just discovered… a hauntingly beautiful song called Charlie Darwin (from the album Oh My God, Charlie Darwin) by a group called The Low Anthem. Their music tugs at my soul.

I think I am getting old. I used to love to blast good music in the car. Now everytime I get in the car (without the 4 children) I turn everything off. I used to think my mom was weird when she did that. Crap I am becoming my mom. HELP
