I have such a strange taste in music..

ranges from Bon Iver and Jose Gonzalez to Elvis Costello & The Beatles & Cream to bands like Kings of Leon & Wolfmother.

...it's not that strange.

I'd imagine that not many other TSRians have Mongolian overtone singing on their iPods. Of course, I could be wrong. >_>

Mine is pretty diverse.....

Metal is the predominant one, but my collection ranges from Cradle of Filth, Metallica, Opeth, Dream Theater, through punk like Offspring and Bad Religion to general rock - Guns and Roses, Bon Jovi through Muse and Oasis to Lily Allen and even a bit of Robbie Williams through Jonny Cash through Faithless and Pendulum through Eminem and 50 Cent and then a nice bit of Vivaldi and Beethoven. Being a drama student I've also got quite a few musicals on there.

So yeah....pretty diverse.....I'm hoping when I get to uni I'll have one of those Ipods that anyone can find what they like on it......I'm generally into a bit of everything.

I honestly don't mean to be rude, but having a mixture of metal, punk and indie doesn't constitute a diverse I-pod/music collection.

The ones I mentioned (just examples obviously) had a mix of metal, rock, indie, punk, pop, musical, classical, rap, drum and bass, club....... and I've got others like reggae, folk etc, just not as much. Thats not just a mixture of metal punk and indie - or do you count those artists as being indie for some reason? Its fairly diverse as a mix of music - although I won't be so arrogant as to claim its extremely diverse - I'm the first to admit its largely mainstream.

Rock, indie, punk, rap and drum and bass are all, essentially, Anglo-American youth sub-cultural styles and movements derived from similar roots.

If, however, you had said, "I have a mixture free form acid jazz, bit-pop, Latvian nasal chanting, tribal house, Nothern soul, bunggul, futurism, Italo disco, Mongolian overtone singing (thankyou BJack), space and Hungarian folk music," then perhaps we could call your tastes diverse. As it stands, apart from the Beethoven - a staple of many record collections - I would call you a western pop-music fan. Nothing wrong with that, that is predominantly what I listen to, but you can hardly call it diverse.

Also, if you're a drama student, I'd highly recommend downloading some Mercury Theatre Company (War of the Worlds is a classic!) and Thomas' Under Milk Wood. You wont regret it!

80GB iPod, rapidly running low on space.

...Genre-wise? Mostly Alt/Prog Rock- as ridiculously broad a label as that is. Loads of Britpop and Dance kicking around, too- with a couple of Musicals and Soundtracks for good measure.

Current listening material? Manic Street Preachers. <3
