Your secret stash of tunes
I have a rep as a diehard metalhead, so most people at work would be shocked to learn that I have NWA, Tupac, Notorious BIG, Nelly, Alan Jackson, Pam Tillis, and other non metal genres in my music collection. What's in your secret stash that would surprise your coworkers?
Re: Your secret stash of tunes
Doctor Steel, Bela Fleck, and for some reason, Electric Six. They're my joint favourite band, so I dunno why people are always so shocked!
Re: Your secret stash of tunes
I've mostly been known as an alternative fan, so I've surprised people because I have large collections of these:
Classical. Yes, I love Beethoven, Tchaikovsky (have 3 copies of the Nutcracker), Mozart, and so much more. I plan to use Pachelbel's Canon in D when I marry. I also love opera and have a few in my collection.
Jazz. I own a CD of Scott Joplin's music and have the Entertainer and Maple Leaf Rag in my iPod. I have a box set of Billie Holiday, and own various CDs of Louis Armstrong, Cab Calloway, John Coltrane, Glenn Miller, Benny Goodman, Nat King Cole, and many more.
Classic Country. I can't stand the new stuff, but the older music is great. The older music has soul in it.
Bubblegum. I admit it, I love the Brady Bunch, the Partridge Family, the Archies, the Banana Splits. Cheesy music, yes but lots of fun. I'm not crazy about today's bubblegum though.

Yeah I am a definate metalhead rocker chick as well but I also love me some Lady Gaga. I'm so ashamed!!!
Re: Your secret stash of tunes
I'm a metalhead too, but I have a lot of trip-hop in my collection, like Tricky, Portishead and Massive attack.
Re: Your secret stash of tunes
Just because I have tattoos all the DJ's assume I dance to Marilyn Manson, Korn, Godsmack, etc (who I all love), BUT I usually dance to more emo pop stuff. Like All Time Low, Paramore, Boys Like Girls. Happy, upbeat stuff.
I've been known to dance to Jason Derulo and Black Eyed Peas before too....shhhhh... ;)
Re: Your secret stash of tunes

Re: Your secret stash of tunes
Yeah people try to play rock for me... I prefer to dance to techno/electronic music. Most people look at me like heyyyy you're a goth chick. But in all actuality I'm more of a rockabilly/pin up girl... black hair universally means goth hahaha. ::)
The next DJ that assumes I like Nickleback is getting stiffed lol! I'm just kidding I don't stiff my DJs evah.
