Mostly Anything. I dislike Creed, but as they have disbanded, they are little concern to me now. I have put off looking for new bands of interest, because I have a wonderful friend who introduces me to new stuff all the time so I don't really have to anymore....(Holly!) When I'm at home, I hardly listen to the radio, but I do in the car because I'm somehow calmed by the carefree 'tunes.' What I Listen to....Mew, The Cure, NIN, Tool, AFI, The Crow Soundtrack, Air, Smashing Pumpkins, The Starvations, Weezer, The Pet Shop Boys, David Bowie (a lot), Peaches, T-Rex, The Magnetic Fields, Iggy Pop, Throw Rag, Sloan, Caural, Tea Party, Maroon 5, Prince, Dropkick Murphy's, Crispin Glover-'These Boots Were Made For Walkin,'' Lars Frederiksen And The Bastards, Danny Kaye, Placebo, The Velvet Goldmine Soundtrack, Squonk Opera, John Frusciante, The Hives, lots of 80s music, Alex Gopher, E-vax, U.N.K.L.E, Tadd Mullinix, Aphex Twin, edIT, Cinematic Orchestra, Skip James, Shooby Taylor, Rah Digga, Captain Jack, Dir en Grey, Lauren Hill, Billie Holiday, Danny Elfman, Bright Eyes, And You Will Know Us By The Trail Of Dead, The Pixies, Arab Strap, Belle and Sebastian, The Soft Boys, Quintron, Ella Fitzgerald, Chopin, Brian Eno, April March, Suzanne Vega, The Rolling Stones, Bob Dylan, Johnny Cash, almost anything that classifies as 'oldies,' for me that is from the 50s or 60s I suppose, 70s is 'Classic Rock' and I'm a little pickier about that, unless it's 'glam' and then I probably love it. Anyway, you get the picture....
I am a movie freak. I will watch absolutely anything that I am set in front of. I have a fetish for well made childrens movies as well as graphically violent/obsene, but beautiful cinema. Off the top of my head I like... Labyrinth, Ghost World, The Princess Bride, The Crow (only the first one), Gormenhast, Velvet Goldmine, Ichi the Killer (aka Koroshiya 1), Mansfield Park, Notting Hill (sorry), The Triplets of Belleville, Hawwie Pawter (as g.draco says...), Harold and Maude, The Breakfast Club, Many Disney Movies; such as Robin Hood, Mary Poppins, Lady and the Tramp..., Sweeney Todd-the Demon Barber of Fleet Street, It (the clara bow silent film not the killer clown), Blonde Crazy, Strawberry Blonde, Gilda, The Little Vampire, The Secret Garden, A Little Princess, Amelie, Dirty Pretty Things, Happenstance, But I'm a Cheerleader, Better Off Dead, Little Women, Happiness of the Katakuri's (Katakuri-ke no kôfuku), MAY, The Wedding Singer, Citizen Toxie: The Toxic Avenger IV, Phantom of the Paradise, Sense and Sensability, Dark Harbor, B. Monkey, Dogma, The Pajama Game, Pillow Talk, Calamity Jane, Tipping the Velvet, Blueberry, Truly, Madly, Deeply (haha)............ I'll add more later...
Over the summer, I got sucked into watching Soap Net while knitting...so that's about what I watch now. Though I do enjoy Queer Eye, basically anything on Bravo or AMC, and that Obsession show on Vh1...
I voluntarily read Jane Eyre last year, and despite everyone's criticism of it, I loved it. I also love American Psycho by Bret Easton Ellis and all of the HP books (oh yeah...) The Man Who Fell to Earth surprised me and is actually really good (I thought it would be just another silly sci fi book.) More Than Human is too. Ring & Spiral are both worth reading. I'm trying to get the biography of J.M. Barrie, but I haven't yet, so I settled for Louisa May Alcott...Meow
any one who can live and do what they enjoy and not care how much or how little they make doing it, as long as they make enough to get by. Also, Mark Ryden.
