Earlier I told my dad that he needs to broaden his musical horizons.
As far as I can tell, his Itunes Library consists of nothing but Radiohead (eww, I know they're local and everything, but I severely dislike them - apart from Just, but I prefer the Mark Ronson version obvvvv.), a depressing Russian classical composer called Shostakovich (who I am subjected to every time he drives me to Sam's on a Friday night, but apparently he is supposed to be very interesting as he rebelled against communism through his music - how does that figure if there are no words?), Frank Sinatra, and a Westlife album of Frank Sinatra covers (which I made him upload!) That's basically it.
So I subjected him to my 'Top 25 most played' while he was eating his porridge oats this morning, and although he doesn't believe me that not all RnB is shit yet, I did get him giving 'Don't Stop the Music' by Rihanna some positive comments, for example; 'Well it's bearable...' and 'It's got quite a good beat.'
This is v. good progress.
