Eminem

[asterroc]

I'm sure that people who don't know me well would expect me to listen to Sarah McLachlan exclusively, but just like I'm not vegan, I do like pop, but I need healthy doses of "alternative" - metal, occasional punk/ska, and Eminem. I don't like any other rappers, just him. And that's because besides having good rhythm and an actual tune, he's clever.

I just listened to the lyrics of "Till I Collapse" for the first time, and caught "Adrenaline shots of penicillin could not get the illing to stop / Amoxicilin's just not real enough." Hee, I like that. :)

Yeah, I enjoy the occasional Eminem. I'd like to get the greatest hits album, which came out last year, I think.

I think my Sarah McLachlan days passed long ago. I migrated to the much cooler Tori Amos. Anymore, Sarah's got a little too much Jesus in her for my tastes.

While Eminem's got a healthy dose of "Fuck God"? :-P I thought you were some flavor of Christian though? I don't find Sarah's stuff too overbearing (except for "Hold On") - most of it is more story-telling than preaching. Kinda like I really enjoy the Indigo Girls' "The Wood Song" which is the story of Noah's Ark. As I was saying in another post, I like Christian stories.
