As much as I love music from DK's to Depeche Mode, and tons of the obscure in between, prog rock, 60s, 70s, lots of the shoegaze stuff, and lots of big band and old standards, I have many CD's by, and very much enjoy:

Abba
Carpenters
Early Barbra Str

Wow. How personal are we supposed to get with this thing? Hmmm... let's see:

OK. I've already loudly admitted to being a huge NEIL DIAMOND fan. I've seen him in in concert 3 times - twice I even went alone. I just love the man.[:D]

I can shout back every Bid Audio Dynamite song 85'to 87'.

I haven't heard any depeche mode songs past 1990.

I don't own any Clash albums.

I only know 1 roxy music song.

I never owned a pair of chucks.

I've never dyed my hair.

I never dated a waver or a punk, either. In fact, when I finally started dating, which was in college in '86, my boyfriends were almost all into Classic rock or were Deadheads. However, I can proudly say that I got some of them into New wave or other Mode

I found myself singing along to a Cyndi Lauper song and realized I actually like her. Rest assured I am not going to do anything drastic like actually buy her CDs!

Right my turn:

Can't stand Erasure and Depeche Mode and found Duran Duran by and large overrated.

The Cure, Smiths and Morrissey are studenty, pretentious rubbish

Marc Almond: not too keen on his music to say the very least.

Heavily into jazz

There are some very diverse mo-fo's on this board.

No confessions here.
