Eclectic Tastes
So I like bands like Rammstein, Depeche Mode, Deathstars, Sistersof Mercy, but also like Johnny Cash, Garth Brooks, Maksim, the Cure, Ryan Adams, and Steps.
Does anyone have a more eclectic taste in music?

OK, I'll stop now - that's just a few of the people who enjoy space on my shelves.
I did a programme with the local radio station a bit back - a sort of chat plus desert island discs. I included Rachmaninov's 2nd piano concerto, When You're Young And In Love (Marvellettes), Postman Pat, Da Do Ron Ron, The Major General's Song from Pirates of Penzance and Teenage Dirtbag (Wheatus). Trump that lot.
I would never disregard any type of music simply because there is bound to be at least one song that I would love.
I spent my childhood in Africa so have a few records at home to remind me of good ol' days. I also have Asian music, Irish folk songs, classical, musicals, country rock, old school hip hop, rap, r'n'b, soul, dance, trance, a good few cd's of party songs for me littlun, rock, pop, russian bands, chanson, and my fav indie, alt rock, metal, doom and death metal.
Radiohead, Elbow, Death Cab For Cutie, Delays, Blur, The Postal Service, UNKLE, Mylo, Royksopp, Orbital, David Gray, Damien Rice, Ben Folds, David Bowie, Magnet, Placebo, The Secret Machines, Muse, Mew, Brian Eno, Enya, Weekend Players, Sigur Ros.... The list goes on!
I think that's pretty eclectic!
