The one piece of music you love that your partner hates..?

Can't read the whole thread but my wife does not tolerate Steely Dan … and Bodishattva in particular....

Edit. Have now read the whole thread and realise I may be alone in this …
She is not too enthusiastic about Rush either.

 

Mine too . She’d rather watch an ASPCA commercial then hear a Cocteau tune and she always has to leave the room when those commercials come on.
She also can’t stand Xiu Xiu. I get her back by showing my complete displeasure for Sonic Youth.

 

Jesus. Don't ever get a divorce.
This wouldn't look good in court.

 

Albert ayler, ghosts, I like it enuff that I can kind of play it.

 

Too many to name. Rush would probably come in first.

 

I thik my wife doesnt like about 75% of what is in my collection. Shame

 

I like this thread!

My partner Very suffering when I listen to the Canadian Electro-industrial band Skinny Puppy, he always asks if these sounds and these vocals are instructions and type of frequencies in order to call huge monsters from space to come here and conquer the earth from humanity!
then I tell him that they will not just come here ,they will take him to their planet and never bring him back ,,,, Tough love

 

80s new wave music is Amazing and creative
I actually love music from the 50, 60 ,70, 80, 90,
regarding music from the recent years, mostly Ambient music

 

Kate Bush, he cannot abide Kate Bush. Was the same with Radiohead but eventually warmed to them.

 

My partner also doesn't like Kate Bush, (I like her a lot.
When I thinking about it I think he doesn't like 80% of my beloved music, or maybe even more?

 

My girlfriend does not like 99.9 per cent of what is in my collection. Music is not something we share.

 

I can't complain though, she surprisingly enjoys Front Line Assembly

 

Mostly no problem but Cardiacs and post-Safe As Milk Beefheart can only be played when Mrs not at home.

 

Pretty much anything rockabilly, reggae, jazz, Grateful Dead, Zappa, Beefheart, instrumental (except classical).

 

Everything by Roy Orbison. Joni Mitchell too.

 

Since she's a child of the nineties her favourite bands are Panic at the Disco and Muse. She is also familiar with a smattering of classics picked up from soundtracks, though hardly ever knows the names of the bands. She tends to 'tolerate' my more extensive collection stretching back to the fifties and focussed mainly on my formative decades of the sixties and seventies - Beatles, Stones, Bowie, Waits, Zeppelin, etc.
However, she cannot stand even a few seconds of Captain Beefheart. Not even the more easy listening Safe as Milk.

 

Jethro Tull.

She can't stand a single note. Especially once the flute kicks in. I'm ok with it because she enjoys the vast majority of my collection but I've stopped playing Tull when she's home. Their music irritates her so much!

 

Same here

 

Led Zeppelin. I usually get my LZ fix when she's out shopping.

 

I like her already!

 

I played the first album and everything was ok til "Dance this mess around"...

"This song is horrible!"

 

My ex used to hate "When Big Joan Sets up" by Captain Beefheart". I will let you guess what her name was!

 

The only music my partner and I can share:
Love "Forever changes" (she really loves this album, actually I bought her a copy as a present)
David Bowie (except Low and Heroes second side)
The Beatles
The Hollies
Prince
Pet Shop Boys
Lou Reed "Transformer" (I told her he had an album consisting of 1 hour of strict noise but she refused to give it a try)

 

Anything by Steely Dan. My wife loathes them. I love them.
