Interesting.

I can't say I like Bob Dylan's voice much but he did make some good music.

Ha. You have an obsessive personality, that's all.

I do the same thing quite a lot, mostly at work, it drives my co-workers crazy that I keep listening to the same few songs over and over again. I have resorted to headphones lately.

I mostly rotate between Pearl Jam's older stuff, Foo Fighters, Stone Temple Pilots and Nirvana.

I have seriously tried to find some newer stuff but I can't find anything I like post 2005.

For example, I love Scott Weiland in STP but I hate him in Velvet Revolver. I don't really like the sound of Pearl Jam's new album either and that is hugely disappointing.
Dave Grohl I like all around (except for Them Crooked Vultures) and also Taylor Hawkins. Alanis Morissette, always love her.

almost worked at excessive deadpan nasal quality wasn't the attraction, nor his point in time cult stature. masterful,

lyrical story telling and the mileage the guy gets out of 'r's' was/still is. boston lad only has a 25-letter alphabet.

sounds as if your headphones may have become a temporary dwelling place

for small homeless critters or gnawing rodents. hose 'em out in the morning.

Ha, I thought I was not current.

Here is my fav Foo Fighters, though they have a lot of good songs, really like Grohl (singing) he played drums for Nirvana and is pretty talented. Also Hawkins (drums) he also did drums for Alanis Morisette.

Pearl Jam's Yellow Ledbetter is one of their best songs, imo. Really love Vedder's voice in everything he does and also Mike McCready on guitar is amazing.


Stone Temple Pilots have disbanded but had a lot of good songs.

It's supposed to sound that way, or I mean it always sounded like that. 😕
