"I don't listen to music"
"Hey Bob. Are you watching that Neil Young special tonight?"
"I don't listen to music"............
WHAT
THE
FUCK?
I've never met anyone who's said that before.
I'm speechless.
Anyone ever come across such a strange anomaly before?
- Relevant artist taggings:
- None
-
Really?!
REALLY?!
-
Course!
I know loads of people who view it as interference. That's cool - vive la difference, comrade!
-
Yes, quite a few times
I don't really find it that strange. The woman who sits next to me at work doesn't listen to music but she's really passionate about motorbike racing, something I know nothing about. Different strokes for different folks.
-
Yeah, you know what Depeche Mode say, 'Enjoy the Silence'
no wait, that doesn't work....
-
i find it odd
because i listen to music so much, it's quite a big part of my life. but yeah, other people have different interests that i don't have, so it's all gravy.
when's the Neil Young special??
-
It turns out a lot of people don't
or they do the initial thing of listening to soundtracks and stuff instead of actual music
Yeah, I'm judging you, every last one of you -
Yes.
Also, some people don't like sport, or reading, or telly, or travelling.
INCREDIBLE SCENES.

I know someone
who doesn't like strawberries!
-
i don't like strawberries
i love them
-
i don't like strawberries
i hate them

Strawberry Holiday
I was walkin' down the field
Concentratin' on pickin' right
I heard a dark voice beside of me
And I looked round in a state of fright
I saw four faces one mad
A farmer and his mother
They looked me up and down a bit
And turned to each otherI say
I don't like strawberries oh no
I love them
I don't like strawberries no no
I love them
Don't you walk thru' my shrubs
You got to show some respect
Don't you walk thru' my shrubs
'Cause you're squashin me plants, y'git.Well he looked down at my punnet
He said I'll give you one dollar
I said you've got to be jokin' man
I've been pickin' these for an hour
He said I like it I want it
I'll take it off your hands
And you'll be sorry you crossed me
Those berries you'd better not drop
Cos you're an acre from the shop.And I say
I don't like strawberries no no
I love them
I don't like strawberries
I love them
Don't you pick all me crop
Don't you step on me berries
Go and walk thru' some woods
And someone else's cherries. -
even stranger is a girl i vaguely know once said
that girls only get into music to pull guys.
Incidentally she was a total dick.
-
I've never listened to music.
I keep hearing things about it.
I may give it a try one day.
Maybe. -
she's probably more correct than any of us would like to admit.
the reason why anyone chooses to do anything usually has that ultimate goal at it's root.
-
loads of people don't listen to music
boggles my mind
-
don't
trust them one bit.
-
premier work
was that an original remix by your good self or copy-pasted from elsewhere? I believe it was original and I salute you, but feel free to disabuse me of that notion.
-
Not listening to music is like not breathing...
In my book at least.
I seriously couldn't (and wouldn't want to) contemplate life without music.
-
sociobiology
motherfuckers
-
Aye, I copied and pasted
the first 2 verses of the original and played around with the lyrics to give it a more strawberry-based theme.
-
I don't like strawberries
It's cos they're hairy
-
Music & Football
That'll do me.
-
what about chestnuts?
you gotta have chestnuts.
-
people who don't like music are cunts and I could never trust them.
Incidentally, people who like music are cunts and I could never trust them.
-
I know plenty of people who don't listen to music.
In fact, I think the vast majority of the public could be described as having no interest in music.
I don't watch or pay attention to any sports. Many people would find that equally strange.
-
****CORRECTION****
It is TONIGHT, not tomorrow. I didn't notice the date on that other thread.
-
He's Probably just trying to schock people
Big deal. I bet he listens to all his albums before he goes to bed every night.
-
um, shock actually...
*akward
-
god
dammit
-
david mitchell doesn't
but i'll let him off because he's funny
-
its better than people who claim to be passionate about music.
when theyre passionate about chart pop rock
-
I don't understand this thread
I have always known that most people ar not interested much in music or Neil Young.
I on the other hand own about 60 albums by him and am now waiting for the shows to begin (it is better to be me). -
I remember having this conversation
about this with an old school friend on the back of the bus. I was really shocked when he said he didn't listen to music, as he "didn't see what people get out of it". I think I was too weirded out to construct a case for the defense.
-
different strokes for different folks, innit.
I don't like watching films. Some people might think that's weird.
-
That is
fucking weird.
'Point Break' is a masterpiece.
-
Me neither
I fucking hate those weird people that flick through the Sky Movies channels then begin watching a film that's already half the way through, fucking weirdos.
-
I know
it is a bit odd. Loads of people don't read fiction either. People are strange. I don't really object to such people, but I don't think I could go out with one of them.
-
Chestnuts
are definitely in for me.
-
most people dont like music
its an acoustic wallpaper rather than a pursuit
meh -
Most people
make do with whatever is thrust before them. Like Dan Brown, The Killers and Newton Faulkner.
Course you couldn't go out with them, there's little common ground to build on after you get rid of those...
-
I know someone..
well two people actually, who don't like hot drinks.
weirddd
-
i don't trust people that don't like music
i used to live in halls with this girl who didn't own a single CD /tape / vinyl and she used to nick my milk all the time.
life without music = life without meaning (and morals)
-
In all honesty.....
I can only think of 4 actual real world friends who like music to DiS-esque levels. There are a few more who enjoy going to festivals in the summer and will come and watch the likes of J.E.W or Interpol as long as they're not working the next day or anything, but most people don't really care.
Either they'll associate music with being in their teens or as the soundtrack to moments in their lives and/or they'll be the 4 albums per year crew who buy all of their records at Tesco.
We are the freaks, not they.
-
Neither of my parents listen to music...
and I honestly believe it's one of the main reasons we don't get along at all. Our personalities are just so different because of my extreme love for music and their not understanding it. I really just can't fathom how they don't listen to ANY music, even casually.
-
Ya i agree
I only can think of like 4 other people who love music as much as me. and they happen to be my four best friends. I think it's really interesting how our personalities match so well just because of our mutual love for music.
-
none of my close friends are very interested in music
it's not that important either
-
It's strangest when people say "I don't like music"
because that really doesn't make sense. You don't like music? ANY music? I mean, it can take a lot of effort to be a "music listener" so to speak, especially if you're a bit older I expect, but saying "I don't like music" is is exactly the same as saying "I don't like films" or "I don't like books", which seems rather general to me.
-
A few.
I think it's unlikely they don't listen to music at all, or go out of their way to avoid it, but it's pretty easy to imagine some people just don't buy CDs, listen to the radio or watch music television. It's the same as people who don't watch films, television, go to art galleries, read books (this is far more concerning than music, in my opinion) or indulge in other artistic outlets. Nevertheless, I'd probably find it hard to relate to these people as listening to music is just one of those things almost everyone I've met/befriended has in common.

Yes.
It's not unusual.
