What’s this crap, now?

sounds like music from a mario brothers game.

-my brother after listening to yes.

that was some weird f***ed up s**t.

-my brother after listening to zappa.

"Why are you constantly listening to weird music? That's the worst junk
I've ever heard. It's scary ... it's just weird."

-- My wife whenever she hears me listening to certain tracks from 5uu's,
Thinking Plague, some Yes (especially Relayer or Tormato), A Triggering
Myth, etc.

"Now that's nice music. I don't know why you have to always listen to the
weird stuff. This you can actually listen to. I like this kind of music."

-- My wife whenever she hears me listening to other tracks from 5uu's,
Thinking Plague, some Yes (especially Relayer or Tormato), A Triggering
Myth, etc.

When I tell her it's the same music she's always saying she doesn't like,
there's a brief pause in the conversation ... before she launches in with:

"Why are you constantly listening to weird music? That's the worst junk
I've ever heard. It's scary ... it's just weird."
