"so sarah, what music are you into?"

anyone that asks me that question always ends up wishing they hadn't, because once i get talking i don't shut up.......

i've always loved music and everything to do with it. my tastes could be considered weird, but hey, i am.

the ten bands which i absolutely worship are:

nirvana. hole. silverchair. pearl jam. smashing pumpkins. greenday. living end. jebediah. you am i. grinspoon.

the following are artists that i adore, or i just love some of their songs. a few of them could be considered geeky. but like kurt said, "i'd rather be dead than cool."

aerosmith. alanis morrissette. ammonia. ash. ben folds five. ben lee. blink 182. blur. bon jovi. bush. dandy warhols. everclear. foo fighters. frenzal rhomb. fuel. garbage. guns'n'roses. jewel. korn. led zeppelin. lemonheads. live. local H. loki. madonna. magic dirt. marcy playground. marilyn manson. mavis's. metallica. nick cave. nine inch nails. no doubt. oasis. offspring. placebo. portishead. powderfinger. radiohead. red hot chilli peppers. regurgitator.

::INSPIRATIONS TO ME::

Kurt Cobain, 'nuff said. Courtney Love, courage is her middle name. Billy Corgan...genius. Jimmy Page, one of the best guitarists of all time. Stone Gossard....legendary guitar player AND wicked vocalist as well. Eddie Vedder, the most emotional lyrics i have ever heard. and the most touching. Art Alexakis....overcame drug addiction and started a successful band and gorgeous family. *anyone that does what they want without hurting others. *anyone who isn't afraid to say what they feel, and anyone who's willing to work at something, even if it's really hard to get. if you want something bad enough, fight for it and don't let it get away or else you'll spend the rest of your life wondering "what if."

below is the pic of the infamous eddie-jeff lean, if you don't know what i'm talking about, you obviously don't like pearl jam. and you should!
