During my non audio times, I work as a Psychiatrist. Let me just say that in my somewhat biased and therefore semi-professional opinion, you are not all crazy, just a little nuts:D. And in the words of Willy Wonka, A little foolishness now and then is relished by the wisest of men!

Jay Our greatest glory lies not in never falling, but in rising each time we fall.

Thank you, Jay. I am relieved by that. I guess wer're OK afterall. Well, everybody except that poor guy that got in trouble for yodeling.....
Listening to my entire collection on shuffle would be enough to drive someone to schitzophrenia for sure. I've been known to go from Ozzie, to ABBA, to Modest Mouse, to Tupac, to Nora Jones, to Slayer, to Fernando Ortega, to Jars of Clay, to Al Green in the same playlist. I'm not a huge rap fan at all, but every now and then I like to hear Tupac, California Love or Ice Cube, Today Was A Good Day; just to name a couple.
I love a LOT of different music. Someone hear posted 2 German girls singing something in German a year or so ago, don't remember who they were or the band name but it was good.

This isn't my collection though, it's just one arbitrary stack that structured itself out of the random chaos of my psyche and its musical cravings. I mean seriously, who has Meat Loaf and Bridgit Mendler, Led Zeppelin and Nora Jones, all in one stack?
I might! So now you have been "Psycoanalized" My bill will be in the mail!
After reading the rest of this thread, I've come to realize the folks here at PETT love good music. Doesn't matter the genre, if it's good, we'll listen to it. Probable the same type of people who take a sensible approach to the world and try to leave it a little better than we found it.
My playlist has grown since I've been improving my listening equipment. Songs that may have been OK, at best, in the past take on a different light when played on better speakers through a better amp. It's not that my older equipment was bad; Pioneer SX-780, Pioneer PL-600, and JBL L40s. I just listen more critically because I'm looking to see what I can and can't hear in the speakers. Building my own causes me to evaluate them harder than non-DIY. Plus, some of the music played at the few DIY shows I've attended has given me reason to search for different music. Now, add Pandora and HD Tracks and I've always got something tickling my fancy for new music. Oh, and of course there's Bryan Keene suggesting new music...

similar mix here, then add add some old and newer Maricahi/Ranchera and Tejano Mexican music. Every once in a great while I add some of my Dad's music he brought back from when we lived overseas back in the 60s n 70;s
