Music to my ears!

I updated the radioblog...with all English songs! I dedicated to no jpop for this rotation because I scare myself sometimes with how Asianified I've become since middle school. Also, there's only so much jpop one can handle in a certain amount of time. I think if I could browse someone's whole music library, I could distinguish if they were white, Asian, or thug. You might think that I'm just stereotyping and being racist or something. But from my experiences, only Asians like jpop. If I see an Ayumi Hamasaki song in someone's iTunes, chances are that he/she is Asian. Next, if there is no jpop/cpop/kpop/whatever, and there is the Hives or Keane or the White Stripes or any number of certain bands, the owner is probably white. If the music library does not have any of the above, it probably belongs to a thug. Try this test on your friends' playlists. Freaky, no? On a more "unifying" freaky note, we discovered today that the word for "mom" is very similar is many, many languages. We covered all the Romance languages, Czech, a lots of Asian languages. I must find out how they say "mom" in African and Native American Languages!

The mandolin hypnotized me! I couldn't help it!

Does Brett listen to anything other than jpop? Just wondering.

Good point Mike. He seems to listen to all kinds of non-English music. I love my jpop, but sometimes I just gotta have my Keane, ya know?

I agree with you on being Asianfied. Coming to IU and joining on student groups do that to you. If you don't want to become Asianfied, stay away from the free food!!! :P
