When I was 15 I heard "Strangelove" by Depeche Mode and I was blown away. It was an indescribable feeling that made me appreciate music more than ever before.

Different drum. I have not (until now) met any man I can get along with. I get to where I can not stand one more moment of their bull sh*t. It builds to an ending where I sigh a sigh of relief and pick up my car keys and get out. We will both live a lot longer, if you live without me. They fall in love with someone else and I open my fingers and let go without an argument.

Now, I have a man who is authentic. He is what he says he is. He dares to show his human side and it is attractive to me. I hope the time never comes when we pick up our car keys and give each other that final salute.

I didn't even really realize how much my tastes were shaped by what my mom and her best friend listened to all the time when I was a kid. My mom had a gay male friend who lived with us off and on and he would make cassette mixes for my mom that were straight 80s club music (some of the usual popular stuff and some more obscure stuff). I'm sure that had a lot to do with how much I now enjoy stuff like Crystal Castles and VNV Nation (really most anything synth/electro/trance/dubstep/younameit). On another level entirely, I remember the first time I *really heard* Tool. I had seen their videos on MTV here and there and thought they were neat, but the music didn't stick with me until one day when I heard Stinkfist on the radio shortly after Aenima came out (I was probably 15) and I about sh*t myself. "WHO IS THIS AND WHERE CAN I GET MOOAAAARRRR!!!" I've seen Tool four times and A Perfect Circle and Puscifer once each at this point.

Really I have such a wide range though...honestly I've gotten a lot of new music from various people I've dated. You can't really help but hear what they're into, and some of it sticks.

it's happened a few times. i can't recall every time something came up that changed the way i look at music and what i'd want to listen to. i still listen to stuff that i listened to when i was 13. maybe not as much but alot of it still gives me some sort of feeling. it can go from things like our lady peace to martin sexton to the wailin' jennys and everything further as well as in between.

I think the first time my mind was actually fried by a tune was hearing I Am The Walrus when I was about 12. I couldn't stop playing it.
