O que os seus gostos musicais dizem sobre si num possível encontro

Interessante perspectiva de Scott Alden sobre os nossos gostos musicais. Claro que é tudo uma treta. Ainda assim....

Bruce Springsteen: You’re a monster in the sack.

Rod Stewart: You’re gross.

David Bowie: You’re selective, but slutty.

Kanye West: You’re kinda mean. In a hot way.

Jay Z: You don’t take any shit. Or at least you know that you’re not supposed to.

Beastie Boys: You believe that loyalty is rewarded.

The Arcade Fire: You spend the first third of a relationship in a romantic frenzy and the last two trying to justify it.

The Ramones: Unless you’re over 40, you’re trying to be cool.

Rush: You’re a man. And a nerdy one at that.

Led Zeppelin: If you’re a woman, you’re hot. If you’re a guy, you’re average.

AC/DC: If you’re a woman, you’re the kind of person who lets a guy move in with you after three dates because he’s temporarily homeless. If you’re a guy, you’re temporarily homeless.

My Chemical Romance: You’re not so much looking for a boyfriend or girlfriend as someone to share a “fuckyeahsuperheroeskissing” Tumblr with.

The Pixies: Relax. You’re cool.

Talking Heads: You’re a good person.

Judas Priest: At some point in your life, you’ve sniffed a little glue.

Belle and Sebastian: If you hook up, it’s gonna get weird.

That One Peter, Bjorn and John song with the whistling: You’re a human being.

The Mountain Goats: You’re very serious about your feelings.

Van Morrison: You’re a romantic. Possibly with a slight drinking problem.

No Doubt: If you’re a girl, you’re a confident person, but you know what it’s like to get treated like crap. If you’re guy, you’re just trying to get laid.

Nirvana: You’re angry and hurt.

Radiohead: You’re angry and hurt. But you’re open to getting some professional help.

The Rolling Stones: You’re hot.

Rihanna: You’re hot.

Beyonce: You’re sweet, but not a pushover.

Regina Spektor: You might be a perfectly nice person, but you’re kind of annoying.

The Beatles: Eh. Who knows.

Coldplay: Missionary position only. But lots of kissing and eye contact.

Queen: You love with the heart of a warrior.

Oasis: You’re the kind of person who does things they’re not supposed to do. Like liking Oasis.

Daft Punk: Depends. You’re either prone to “raging” in the sense of “partying a lot” or in the sense of “throwing your X-Box controller on the floor and smashing it with your purple Sam Jackson lightsaber replica.”

Cat Power: You’re already getting over our inevitable break-up.

Madonna: You’re kind of bratty, but you’re hot enough to pull it off.

Miles Davis: Introspective.

John Coltrane: Deeply introspective.

Charles Mingus: You’re cool as hell.

Thelonious Monk: You’re cool as hell. Even though you’re wearing mismatched socks.

And even though no one complained about it, I’m including a few classical composers here, too.

Brahms: You’re sensitive but guarded.

Beethoven: You’re guarded but sensitive.

Stravinsky: You’re romantic. Sometimes aggressively so.

Mozart: Smartypants.

And here are a few of my favorites from our readers:

From Glow420:
Jack Johnson: chill and easy going, allowing the relationship to take a natural path (versus rushing into anything)

From Anon:
Jack Johnson: You think you’re chill and easygoing, but really you’re just afraid of commitment.

From Tina Starr:
Nine Inch Nails: You’re kinky and and have lots of angry sex.

From Javier Ordonez:
Pink Floyd: Your alcohol/substance use prevented you from making it to the date, but the hours spent in heavy contemplation left you a better person. For now.
