I don't think anyone can *make* anyone *get* a certain kind of music. You're either going to, um, appreciate it by discovering it for yourself or... you're not. People can tell you whatever they want about why so-and-so is such a great singer or songwriter (whatever), but there's still personal taste. I'm gonna catch hell from all kinds of people for this, but the time has come for me to step out and 'fess up that, in addition to disliking Stevie Nicks, (quelle horreur!) I never got (or maybe just plain don't like) James Taylor (don't even ask - somehow he's just too white-bread for my liking - and yet, I do like some of his stuff, but he always sounded like he needed to take an iron pill or something); Dylan (there again, I like a lot of his *stuff* and even sing/play it myself, but not necessarily him singing; and (this is the big one because I know a lot of you are major fans) Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young. Never got 'em, never will. Oh yeah, and Minnie Ripperton - to be fair, the only song I ever heard her sing is "Loving you" and I wanted to scream every time she went for this "La la la la la.... aaaaaaaaaaaaahh" things in a range no one should ever attempt to get into, even when equipped with an oxygen mask. The flame-proof suit is on, so I'm ready to take my lumps (nothing liked a mixed metaphor to close off.) ______________________________________________________________________ Web-hosting solutions for home and business! http://website.yahoo.ca
