shadowkatRegarding the music meme? I should clarify something? It's not supposed to be your favorites or the best music ever. Just pick some that you listen to and like. I don't believe in putting value judgements on this stuff any longer - because, well, it's subjective and I'm agnostic on my choices. They change with the wind.
Eclectic means non-discriminatory - basically, I really don't have "favorites" per se, I just have songs I like at various points depending on mood. I'm not really critical when it comes to music. I'm critical with enough things already, so there should be a few that I'm not critical with, right?
So these lists are really just whatever songs or albums I happen to remember or can find. (I am not proud of this - but I had to look up the James Bond Movie Theme Songs to come up with five that I liked and wanted to share.) They are by no means my favorite.
At work today, I listened to the scores to Game of Thrones, Arcane, Obi-Wan, and various others on Apple Music.
Without further ado - here's the music lists for tonight.
Meme rules:
Pick a music category, list five songs or albums from different performers in it. Try to provide links if possible (but if you can't, that's okay.) Outside of that, do whatever you want. If you want to pick you favorites or the best ones - go for it. I'm picking whatever I can come up with at the moment.
