Why I Love Weird Music

If you've already watched my fan videos, there's a chance you might wonder why the music I put to them is so weird. You might not wonder that but there's a chance, you know?

Well, it started about 2 years ago, when all I liked was rock. I was more into following the crowd n' all that jazz. Dude, I had the coolest hair...anyways! I didn't exactly get bored of going with the flow...I just kinda got tired of it. See, being a "scene kid" calls for "making a scene". aka- being different. In all honesty and from personal experience, "scene kids" are just a set-apart group, not unique individuals. Yes, some of them can be unique, but they aren't original in their ideas and lifestyle. The lifestyle is the worst. I was convicted and I couldn't live like that. Plus I have this huge pet peave: if a band I like turns up on the radio, then everyone else will start liking them- I can't stand that! That's what happened between me and Metro Station. I totally liked them before they got on the radio. Now everyone loves them, and I don't listen to them anymore. Urgh!

So, anyways, now that I'm trying to truly live my life in my own way (well, God's way, which equals "true set-apart-ness"), I'm now listening to music that I enjoy personally that isn't on the radio. However, Coldplay is on the radio..but I'll always love them.

Therefore- weird music! The Graduate is pretty different, I know. But not as much as some stuff. I don't know how to explain to people the kind of music I like.
They'll ask me and I'll say:
"uh..ambient/electro/techno/emo/rock/punk/electronica/industrial/pop/pop punk/alternative/christian/indie"
It's so very hard to remember all that you know?
