More steel guitar and less twang. The sort that would have you feel like you're in the west, cowboys and indians.

yeah but you probably listen to metal so....

I listen to all sorts.
I was just saying that it doesn't sound like the country western you are talking about is what it's known as here.

I'm talking things like Billy Ray Cyrus

Billy Ray Cyrus hasn't really had a music career since achey brakey heart
To be fair, I'm sure it all sounds like that to people that don't listen to country. But there's a fuck load of variety to it. But it's unlikely you'll find a cd full of songs you like, but that's with any genre.

that was just an example of the sort of twee thing I mean
I often find CDs full of songs I like, in many genres.

You're lucky then. It's very rare that I ever do.
In fact, I'm fairly certain that the first time I bought a cd where I enjoyed all of the music, was N-Dubz.

I have been very lucky recently
and have discovered (or been directed towards) a few new bands who I really love.

I LOVE HANNAH MONTANA

I was forced to take my son to see the film by my ex
Don't tell anyone but I was pleasantly surprised by rather liking it, and some of the music in it too.

I used to watch Hannah Montana all the time, because it was genuinely funny.
Very goofy, but still funny. And some of the "hannah" songs are really good, especially for younger girls, I realise they probably don't listen to the words and try to find a meaning, but they're really good, inspirational even.
I mean, not stupid ones singing about ice cream or whatever.

it's surprising where you can find inspiration when you're in the right state of mind.
The one time I visited the states, I fell in love with Mr Rogers, his being the old nice thing in the middle of LA/jetlag may have been a factor.

And you questioned my musical taste?
I've never heard Hannah Montana, is she good then?

It's Miley Cyrus, she played Hannah Montana on TV, it's how she got her start.

Fuck no, awful teenaged rubbish
My musical taste is 90% awesome and 10% objectively questionable diversions it to some very odd/shit stuff. My liking of the first 3 Levellers albums however is in the 90%, not the 10.
