The type of music.
I get 'exposed' to lots of different types of music & have for decades....my daughter was into alternative music from teen years, so I guess I rode along on the wave. She went to 'raves' etc & liked 'trance' music. Whereas my son is more into 'drum & bass' type electronic music & the newer 'dub-step'... a lot of which I don't like as much.

I was speaking to someone at the station about why North America has such a wonderful tradition of music, and why Europe has lost it (did it ever have it, I mean after 1850?).
I said that it was like Russian or Indian novels. You needed a social problem that was unresolved for people to reflect on. That and the survival of religion and religious music, heaven, hell, damnation and the rest. (For evidence of the truth of this, consider Joy Division in England, the last band with a religious education and sensibility. Here is Day of the Lords
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9BP-LIntM6c)The US still had it so they could do good music. Europe is far too liveable for any of that.
The person I was speaking to wasn't that impressed. She wondered if it had something to do with American verbal expressiveness.

lol. I'm afraid I'm too old to know who's hip today. My son is a Dave Matthew's freak judging from the Firedancer tattoo on his back, for what that's worth.

It is good, nice vocals, very rhythmic. I spent the better part of my young adulthood intoxicated by Brit prog rock, Yes, Genesis, Deep Purple, King Crimson, ELP, Asia and the like. Also, one of my first loves was English. I loved riding her between my legs. I picked her up in 1972. She was beautiful and had a wonderful voice. I'm speaking of my Triumph Trophy 500, of course. ; )
