Hello RF posters, your new lesser demon would like to know what kind of people you are!

I find music is very telling, although while music is very subjective, in other ways it is more illuminating than an entire biography, so if you don't mind indulging me, list three songs (link them to YouTube if you can) that describe you, aspects of your very psyche...in lyrical/sound format.

I can't find "me" on YouTube. :(

YouTube - The Gathering - Rollercoaster

YouTube - The Cranberries - Disappointment

I suppose the latter song suggests that I'm a sad character. It doesn't define my present but reminds me of a time in my past.

Your music choices reveal to me a deep reflective personality...someone given to introspection and self analysis...but not necessarily self critical.
A spiritual person, a romantic, someone who is aware of things that affect others an empathic personality.

One of my greatest weaknesses is that I am overly critical of myself and others and fail to keep these opinions to myself.

Everything else is spot on.

It was on fire when I laid down on it.
Here are mine, in no particular order:

YouTube - Amadeus OST - Serenade For Winds; K 361; 3rd Movement

[youtube]Iay3ddaY8Eo[/youtube]
YouTube - Sting - Jerusalem (Official Video)

[youtube]b3e_zYCOc3I[/youtube]
YouTube - Paper moon : Natalie Cole

[youtube]VQbTRcUbHwY[/youtube]
YouTube - Lyle Lovett: Nobody Knows Me

Sorry, but I felt like this list wasn't complete without the fourth song - I tried, but I couldn't leave it out!

OK, so...what can you tell about me from these? Gots to know...

This person is the person others talk to when they need a confident, someone to listen to them, a counsellor.
Keeps their own worries and concerns to themselves more than is usual perhaps, but optimistic and tough in spirit.
A very busy and active person but one who has time for people, somewhat a sentimentalist maybe.

I am hoping my own liking for some of those songs isnt prejudicing my feelings!

A person with a sophisticated air, projecting an aura of calm mystery and good self control that conceals a smoldering spirit.
A person who loves life and is fascinated with its more esoteric aspects.

Element wise I am not much of an expert I would hazard a guess with either fire or possibly air.

I identify myself with the symbology of Air I think.

This is such a great thread PA!

When I am at my best, the first line, I would like to think ;), paints me quite accurately.
The second line however, is always true.
Even when I'm at my worst. :p

I'm Fire. Aries.

My first two youTubes are Fire and Earth to me.

The last maybe more Fire and Air actually.
My daughter said a funny thing when I was playing 'Passion Dance'
the other morning.
When it started she joked me and said "You like Peanuts music"
(meaning of course Snoopy and Charlie Brown/ Linus and Lucy)
I laughed and agreed it did have a Vince Guaraldi air about it.
Then a couple of minutes in I said, "It's Peanuts on Crack".
Then she said "It's GRUNGE Peanuts"!
And she was right!
That made me laugh SOOO hard!
Maybe it's just a jazz thing. :D

Wait... are you making claims that you can tell what type of person someone is by the music they listen too?

You can learn a lot about somebody from various methods of self expression, art, music, even handwriting. PA seems to be doing a good job so far (and now I have to drop a childish "me next! ME NEXT!" into the conversation ;))

Me first too! I was one of the first to respond and I never got analyzed! :) Interesting stuff so far, and if you're in the mood for some music this is a great thread. I agree that you can learn a lot about a person by their taste in music. I also think that who a person admires reveals a great deal about their own personality and convictions. Tell me the top three thinkers or historical figures you most admire, and I can tell what kind of person you are. :)

It certainly tells me that you value intelligence and being admired for intelligence. Perhaps fame appeals to you? :p

I don't really know, I'm terrible at understanding people. They're most perplexing things. And women, don't get me started on women! If I live to be 1000 years old I'll never understand women! Seriously, why order food and spend money on it if you're only going to throw half of it away to impress your friends? :areyoucra
