Allen Hunter were you alive for any of the 80s, or even the first half of the 90s? I only ask because a no to both of these questions explains a lot.

I will be 19 years old by the next month. And I've listened to 80s/some 90s music growing up as a child. I'm just saying, opinions are opinions. Not saying mine are correct, neither yours or anyone else's. I just think it's silly to bash a band or artist sucks without a valid reason to hate them other than musical preference. But no one's forced to like it.

For example, I do not listen to the Beatles, neither consider myself a supporter, but I respect them enough to not bash on them because I don't have anything bad to say about them that doesn't reflect my personal preferences. I will not be like some average right-winged conservative, attacking any and all musical styles that contain secular lyrics.

My favorite musical genre is heavy metal, but I open up to various other styles too, like classic rock, jazz, blues, some older pop, some opera, and classical.

My favorite opera singer is Luciano Pavarotti. Two songs I really like are Ave Maria and O Sole Mio.

I wasn't going to say it but........... yeah your pretty much a stereotypical metal fan. Every metal fan claims to appreciate jazz, opera, classic rock blah blah. Even though metallica isn't exactly saying anything that isn't somewhat mindless.

No. I never said that. I just love his range of singing, and I never said I was very experienced with the world of opera or jazz or blues. But of course, it's easier to introduce the more popular artists than the more obscure. I just like listening to random artists from these genres as long as they sound good. Tenor is my preferred range in singing, I've sang for my HS choir for several years and we've had some really decent tenors and altos in there. I just wish I could sing that high, I only go as far as bass.

Il Gladiatore is also really good. Nessun Dorma is another one I like listening to, but it has been everywhere from world cup soccer to Boxing Helena.

when you ask metal people about classical music, they all say they like bach, beethoven, wagner, and mozart but when you ask them which songs they like they don't know any.

People who say 4'33" is their favourite song by John Cage usually can't name any other songs by him either
