Yes I do know what I'm looking for in life. I'm looking for the things I enjoy about life, so as I can live happily and with a clean conscience. Simple. It has nothing to do with music tastes either.

It's been about a day since your post. Had enough beers yet? To answer honestly, I'm not really looking for anything in particular just want to do a little dance, make a little love, get down tonight. Reminds me of a bad joke I made up myself. Why has U2 still not found what they're looking for? Because the streets have no names.

Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...

I'm looking for love, both intimately and from close friends. Cheesy answer of course, but it's the truth.
Also, have you guys seen my socks?

Kinda like how Gildenlow didn't know what he was looking for and thus wrote that lyric despite being a prog musician.
This needs to be moved.

It was moved when you posted, it's just that the stupid marker makes it linger in the netherworld. :P

I'm not looking for anything anymore.
Listening and looking at what's right here right now is all I'll ever get whether I want it or not.
We'll see how long that sentiment lasts.

You are quite a fine person, and I am very fond of you. But you are only quite a little fellow, in a wide world, after all.

I doubt it, there is nothing special about liking certain kinds of music. |
You know, when I read this, I took this as a question about life. I have my ideas for the rest of my career pretty much mapped out. I suppose that is a little sad.
Taking it to the musical side, well, I pretty much know what I want out of prog. Maybe that's a bit sad too. But I do have interests outside of prog. I finally found a Buddy Rich album (Keep the Customer Satisfied) and I am as happy as heck with it. Prog is my first and only love, but that doesn't mean I won't cheat! :)

To be honest, I fear I just dont know.
The age of people on this forum is probably a much bigger factor than what kind of music they listen to in answering this question.

I like post-punk/gothic - never once did I feel "life is meaningless so let's kill ourselves" - that's called stereotyping. Music of any kind attracts a broad spectrum of personalities that do not conform to any idealised stereotypes.
Progressive (noun) Music is not progressive (adjective) - it is not about making progress or moving forward, though if you look hard enough I'm sure you'll find it - then if I said all Prog music is nihilistic or retrogressive I'm sure I could find plenty of examples to prove that too. There is a danger is coming up with a hypothesis, seeing trends that support it and then claiming that as a generalisation when Prog music has such a diverse vocabulary and attracts a wide range of personalities as musicians and fans.

That too.
If more people here are not wandering through the abyss it is because the population here skews much higher than the average punk/whatever forum.

Sometimes I feel like a prophet walking through the wasteland. I am the chosen one.
In other words, I don't know.

Why is this in the prog polls section? I know you tried to explain why, but still, but I don't get why it's in the prog poll section.
