DellPod: The Beatles, WITH THE BEATLES (in a playlist I made featuring every official Beatles recording they made from 1962 – 1970)
CD player in car: The English Beat, SPECIAL BEAT SERVICE
Latest things played on CD player at home: a 2005 compilation disc a guy made (special attention to Carlos Adolfo Dominguez’s song “Boobies”, Philip Glass’s NAQOYQATSI soundtrack
Last piece of music listened to on a computer: Blur, “Coffee and TV” (accompanied by the video)

I always distrust anybody who says, “I like all kinds of music, except ,”

The question “What music do you like?” is a bad one, because most people have fairly broad tastes.

“What’s on your iPod?” or “What’s in your stereo?” are better questions, because the answers are specific. I love all kinds of music, but “what’s on my iPod” is podcasts by Dick DeBartolo and Garrison Keillor, podcasts about prayer and meditation, and the new Springsteen.

This is not a representative sample of my tastes, but it’s where my ears are at today.

When you ask “What’s on your iPod?” and the person doesn’t have an iPod, your question defaults to “What music do you like?”, a bad question that has mostly bad answers.
