Genres are Silly.
I enjoyed reading Marceline Smith’s post about the iTunes genre box over at Diskant today, and it reminded me that I’d been meaning to do a similar post on genre-related silliness a while back.
I download a lot of mp3s, and borrow/auto-recognise/create a lot more, and looking at my list of genres always gives me a chuckle.
I typed *very few* of these in myself I should add. That would just take the fun out of it, wouldn’t it?
“Girls” is my favourite genre, I think, although “Strut” and “Terror” are also quite pleasing.
