Haven't answered sooner, so going to correct that mistake now
As most of you probably know, I listen mostly metal. There are various reason why.
One big reason to me is because most metal bands I tend to listen are very loyal to the style they have chosen. Mostly it doesn't matter if they are well like or not, they still stick on that style. And in many cases one can hear that from the athmosphere of their music. They like it, and that makes it sound so good.
Also, there are bands which has certain songs which mean very much to me personally. One of such song is "Dead Boy's Poem" from Nightwish. The reason for this is that I got the word of my grandmothers death during the poem section of that song. Imagine it coming in the voice of young boy:
"If you read this line, remember not the hand that wrote it
Remember only the verse, songmaker`s cry, the one without tears
For I`ve given this its strength and it has become my only strength.
Comforting home, mother`s lap, chance for immortality
Where being wanted became a thrill I never knew
The sweet piano writing down my life"
"Teach me passion for I fear it`s gone
Show me love, hold the lorn
So much more I wanted to give to the ones who love me
I`m sorry
Time will tell (this bitter farewell)
I live no more to shame nor me nor you"
Basically, what I've gathered, my grandmother died exactly during this song, and my dad got the call during that poem...
I listen metal on many other situations as well. For example, when I'm preparing to the basketball game (I'm referee), and it's known beforehand that the game will be difficult one, I listen fast and pwoerfull metal to get my self build up. After the game I usually listen some slower metal to ease myself down.
Also, metal means something else to me. I danced my first slow when dj played "Tallulah" from Sonata Arctica.
