I do not listen to music.

So I do not really listen to music at all. Is that strange and why?

I have never really listened to music and have not bought any musical cd or anything of that nature.

The only time I actually listen to music is when I drive and when it is part of tv or movie , games , etc.

My knowledge of the music community or what ever is pretty much nonexistent. Anyone else this way?

Discuss.

Nah, I used to be like that.

The only music I would listen to is the stuff that happened to be on when I woke up to my alarm clock...

It's unusual, but I wouldn't say weird in the sense that it is "wrong".

If my parents and sister didn't play the radio I would almost never listen to music except for Journey, classical, and things from TV shows or movies. I know nothing about current bands, and I don't care.

It is weird... You don't know what you're missing in life then if you're a music virgin and never had a "groove" of some sort... I would suggest finding what music genre(s) interest you, and then exploring what kinds of songs there are.

Well , I listen to the radio when driving , but it is more of a reason to have noise in the background , rather then silence.

I guess it's strange since most people do listen to music. If you're not into it, you can't really change that though.

"Normal" is a term that describes the majority... this is a bit strange. I listen to melodies I like every day, some of them I found by hearing them in a movie, TV, youtube or somewhere else, then I took a mental note of it.

If you are interested in trying to work your way into the musical community then you could start slowly by keeping track of songs that you think sound pleasant... if there are any...

I think music is a pretty cool guy, but he does afraid of some things, so it's cool.

I was actually like that until about6 months ago. I recommend finding a few songs you like and seeing if you like any other songs by that artist. Then branch out from there to other artists that make music of that type. And no, I do not think it is weird that you do not listen to music. :P

For a Dave, it is not uncommon. Dave's have been proven to be quite apathic towards many subjects that provide some form of escapism, a breef moment without thinking about the daily concerns of life. Upon further observation of the Dave, I have come to the conclusion that they are quite cynical and nihilistic.

Dave's are considered normal people, who do not display any interest whatsoever in enjoying themselves. It has been scientifically proven that most Dave's do not have sex until they are over the age of 20. Dave's realise they have to perform their daily duties, to keep the machine going and so on, but they also lack the will to accomplish anything out of the ordinary. Because of that, Dave's are ideal for working in such mundane places as Mcdonald's, Burger King, Pizza Hut, tooth paste or glue factories. It is also not uncommon to see them working there forever.

The more advanced Dave that performs well in his studies gets to have an office job from where he surfs humorous websites because he is bored. Speaking of office jobs, Dave's also have an affinity for ties and formal outfits. All Dave's mostly wear the same formal suits; the only noticeable difference being the tie. Which leads Dave to a difficult decision:''Should I wear the outgoing one with the stripes, or the red one?'' His decision is obvious most of the time.

Due to the Dave's submissiveness to mundane tasks, uniformization, indiference and completely nihilistic view on life, his kind is the perfect specimen to participate in kolkhoz; the Dave is somewhat of a... smurf.

lol. dave my man, I was just like you. Then I started actually watching/listening to the radio to find out what I like. I started to develop a taste for quiet piano rock. Then Guitar Hero came around and REALLY opened my ears for music. Ever since then I have developed a love for my favorite genres, heavy metal and alternative piano rock. All I can suggest is listen to genre mixes(aka GH) and find out what you like listening to. Lots of people relate to music through instruments or singing. I relate it to playing guitar and piano.

Basically just go out and listen to different music. It took me 2 years to refine what I like listening to and find bands I like.

Hey Man!! We are not, your psychiatrist. Go get on somebody else's couch :P but yeah dude, it is weird that you don't listen to music. Listen to some Amadeus or Ludwig Van, you'll know music then.

I also find it kind of weird (although I think I'm the weird one here) that so many of you guys "just recently" got into music, I've been listening to music and I have owned CD's pretty much my entire life, ever since I was 4-5, I used to love pop back then. :P
