I like classic rock, and my mom and most of my friends like pop and Lady Gaga. Unlike Chapel, I haven’t been completely converted, and don’t plan to be.
I totally get this. My record player is my second most prized possession after my actual records, and my mom listens to *annoyed*Kiss FM.
I have said before both Sarah Brightman, and Nightwish make great music. Try out Original Sound Tracts (or just OST) of Movies and TV shows. i suggest "Game of Thrones" OST (season 1) to start with. If you just want to really rock out, try out "Dropkick Murphys". btw, what does your dad listen too then?
I listen to quite a few OSTs actually. Some of my favorites for working are the Doctor Who and Coraline OSTs. I'll check out the Game of Thrones one definitely (I've actually been meaning to try watching the series itself soon). My dad listens to Girl Talk, De la Soul, Beastie Boys, Dead Kennedys, 2 Many DJs, and a lot of college radio. I tend more towards the classic-rock and indie spectrum (as I'm not a rap/remix fan) but we have a lot of favorite songs in common.
OST's are brilliant. I have mostly video game music in my "Generic MP3 Player" but I also enjoy the Doctor Who soundtrack (I love Murry Gold's work) The moment the protaginist's theme starts up in any show I get all happy... things are about to go down.
I don't play video games so I don't have any of that music! But Murray Gold is the best. Right now I'm really looking forward to the soundtrack for BBC Sherlock to come out, it's got some great classical pieces!
I don't play video games either except for Legend of Zelda, Pokemon and other JRPGS. I like Fallout though because I like the whole post apocolyptic cold war thing. if your reason for not playing them is the same as Chapels (you suck and they aren't fun) Don't care about it. I'm the worst player in the world because I don't actually own a console. The best part of gaming is becoming something you're not in the real world though which is something you're still young enough to do on your own.... I wish I could do that now *sighs*

The League of Fonts
THE LEAGUE OF FONTS is where typefaces are born. Every time a font is created in the world, it manifests as a living, breathing, Font – human for all intents and purposes, but unable to age or die unless their typeface falls into disuse. They live together on the League of Fonts, which serves as a secret island hub, bustling corporation, and home. It’s a world full of its own internal intrigues like any office, and Times New Roman is its powerful CEO. He’s got a lot on his plate lately: planning the League’s famous Decennial party, struggling with modern technology, and hiding his embarrassing addiction to the Twilight movies. Times New Roman is confident he can keep everything under control…but what’s an old font to do when a young boy named Louis Pepping accidentally stumbles onto the secrets of the League?
