Hello Sup Forums. This is my first post on this board. I don't know a thing about music, I'm a complete newbie and rookie. I like simple music with female voice.
What I like: - Almost entire 1989 album by Taylor Swift, except slow songs like Bad Blood. - Chandelier by Sia - A Thousand Miles by Vanessa Carlton - Call Me Maybe by Carly Rae Jepsen - soundtracks to films and occasionally games
I don't listen to music on regular basis, only occasionally. What would you recommend me? Some other artists? Maybe I should kill myself? Tell me.
Please give my 1 song by her, I will listen to it and make my mind.
Blake Green
Start your own music sharing general. It'll get you actual music you can listen to immediately, rather than salty discourse.
Start it off with a link to a download of an album you like, maybe look up the pastbin for whatever type of genre you'd be starting. That's my $0.02.

grims or kys

1. Use the sticky 2. Use the sticky 3. Use the sticky 4. Fuck off
Bentley Jenkins
pleb. What a terrible way to judge an artist. Imagine if the only T swift song you heard was bad blood, you'd write he off without ever knowing you like her other stuff.
Josiah Brooks
Joanna newsom and Joni Mitchell Also kys loll XD
Cameron Rivera
Check out Christina Perri
Adrian Barnes
Carly Rae Jepsen - Emotion if you want some anorak hipster cred, check out Talulah Gosh, too.
Listen to all of them. You'll hear a lot about Grimes on these boards, so better be prepared.
Christian Bailey
I'm afraid I don't like it... My currently favorite song is Welcome to New York by Taylor Swift. But again I hadn't listen to nearly any considerable amount of music to have valuable opinion. There is like 20% chance the next random song I'll hear I'll like more.
Hunter Nelson
They will grow on you if you keep listening to her songs.
Charles Murphy
you sound like a /wpop/ brethren. Try Charli XCX, Marina Diamandis, and Aurora.
do not listen to grimes, not even once
Oliver Roberts
>do not listen to grimes, not even once False. Keep listening until you get into her music.
OP, better check out the album Art Angels first. It's honestly the best pop album of the last 5 years.
>best pop album of the last 5 Years >not picking Emotion by Carly Rae Jepesen
Eli Bell
I was listening to Divers on Youtube since it's not on Spotify (at the office atm, making sure to shitpost whilst getting paid)
A Grimes song off Art Angels was apparently on the list I found and it actually made me angry :(
I understand that it could just be because I was expecting something else, but why would you listen to this? To me it sounded like listening to the radio, there were no dynamics, no ebb and flow to the sound, y'know?
Lucas Torres
>not picking Emotion by Carly Rae Jepesen That album sounds like a 1989 remake. Too generic.
>I understand that it could just be because I was expecting something else, but why would you listen to this? To me it sounded like listening to the radio, there were no dynamics, no ebb and flow to the sound, y'know? Are you sure you listened to a Grimes song? To me, her songs have a lot of dynamic: youtube.com/watch?v=jU15FFHhWrc
I'll check this thread once I'm off work and give it a listen.
OT: Found some Julia Holter on the same list... fucking love her music damn son.
Gabriel Morgan
Oh nope that's not how it works. It's the same as when they say I should keep drinking coffee to like it, but I don't like it. If there is music I like after first listening, like Taylor, there is no reason to tolerate something else in order to possibly start liking it.
Robert Foster
Aaaaah, Flesh Without Blood? That's her poppiest song. Her usual style is pretty different. Give it a listen now: youtube.com/watch?v=qsbiyvpel54
Adam Bennett
Not bad but not good either. I love when music makes me want to start dancing, more active, faster. Some of Taylor's songs are perfect examples, hell, I can even say Shake it Off, why not.
Joshua Sullivan

Jaxson Wilson
>there is no reason to tolerate something else in order to possibly start liking it. You're missing out a lot of music for not giving a proper chance. Trust me, some music that you don't like at first it will grow on you and become a favorite if you give it a chance. Your choice.
Nolan Nguyen
As you can see there is a lot of memes here. You can actually start with this chart wich gives you a sights of what album are discused here. Then try to to discover music by yourself or with the help of /daily/, /chart/ and rym godd luck
Dominic Nelson
I already listened and didn't like it, so relax. I couldn't even hear her voice, what the hell was that even. Not my type of music at all. And I can already see it's a local meme, after being here for only an hour.
Caleb Butler
>Oh nope that's not how it works. Oh yes it is you fucking faggot. It might not always work like that, but it can. Just like if you read a book by a new author, you might hate their prose and find it confusing at first, but as you learn to understand it, you might love it.
Lucas Reyes
This song makes me want to dance, though you might not get that same thing from it, it's more of a song for sad dancing youtube.com/watch?v=jsjA_uVqUAc
Daniel Rivera
DO NOT, BY ANY MEANS, LISTEN TO THIS GUY
MUCORE IS THE REASON THIS IS THE WORST BOARD ON Sup Forums
MUCORE-ERS ARE ABSOLUTE FAGGOTS
Jeremiah Green
wow, so there's a guy who takes the time to draw that pretending he was a children talking about Death Grips
those are some serious butthurt levels, is so pathetic, just wow
Ayden Watson
>And I can already see it's a local meme, after being here for only an hour. Honestly, you're lying. This is a bait thread, right? You already heard about Grimes and never liked her. You're on Sup Forums for far longer than 1 hour. Spill the beans.
Asher Thompson
OP, hey buddy, hey friend: why don't you try this terrific synthpop collective called CHVRCHES?
They sound like they'd be right your alley. I hope you enjoy what you're seeing on this board so far! :)
Austin Rodriguez
It's much too late for some.
Mason Price
Even if you don't listen continuously to things you don't instantly like, it's good to revisit things later. Something that used to be used to be too "out there" might become enjoyable as you listen to more of other things and your tastes expand.
Mason Miller
yeah no listening to a new type of music won't make you decide if you like it or not from the first listen you will understand the WAY of listening to the music when you listen to it more often
Parker Stewart
They can't handle her music. Shame, because it's really great.
Ayden Howard
Nigga, that Tallulah gosh track always gets me pumped. What is your problem?
Kevin Hall
MODS BAN THIS KID
Lincoln Stewart
What a joke, this mu-core. Most of these albums are acclaimed outside mu (and great for real). I expected something unique...
Parker Collins
Grimes is basically female shrek
Also, pretty sure OP is baiting. Nobody can be this stupid.
On the off chance OP is serious, a few pointers. If you think listening to a single song by an artist is the best way to get into an artist, never go on this board again. If you think artists are only good if you love them after one single listen of one single song, never go on this board again. If you listen to so little music and care about so little music that you can easily discern a favourite track, never go on this board again. If you think that there is no point to listening to a musician if you're not sure you like them yet, never go on this board again.
Music isn't for you, bud. Just listen to whatever flavour-of-the-year bland viral garbage floats onto your tumblr dashboard because that's all you listen to, apparently. Which is strange, because that's literally what grimes is lmao
Mason Nguyen
What's with people who can "handle it"? What purpose could her music actually have.
Tyler Williams
everyone else is already post-memeing you dolt you got memed
Anthony Cruz
This was made in 2010 (approximately a decade after you were born), these albums are not "unique", they're pop albums to "get people into music" as was decided throughout several threads. For anyone who's completed the list, they will notice that Sup Forums talks about the same 500 albums daily let about 50 being added and dropped off each year.
Robert Perez
You mite be trying too hard.
Lucas Flores
emotion by carly rae jepsen
good album and it's within your extremely limited wheelhouse
if you want to branch out into genres other than pure top 200 pop, listen to joanna newsom, fever ray, and marissa nadler
Bentley Roberts
I think the idea was to present DG as a child's concept. As in: >Death Grips sounds like something a child would make up.
Connor Rogers
Listen to Sentient and Venger by Perturbator and tell me what you think.
Lucas Wilson
I think you would like Oasis, Mansun, blur, or Suede
Lincoln Baker
Hello everyone nice to meet you we are Midori
Ryder Roberts
Enjoyment? Enlightenment? Euphoric?
Josiah Collins
>music >has to have a purpose C'mon, user, I know you're capable of critical thinking.
Noah Brown
>taking the bait
oh summer children
Angel Hall
OK COMPUTER OK COMPUTER OK COMPUTER
Juan Brooks
>excusing stupidity under the umbrella of bait Assume your idiocy, pal.
>summer children Actually, user, I've been here since 2008. You just made me realize I've been using Sup Forums for 8 years. Huh
Anyway, pretty much anything can be "bait" on this site by your logic. If we never replied to any of it, there would be no discussion. I don't even like Grimes btw.
Adrian Gomez
you could not have taken the bait any harder
Juan Gray
You got it wrong, idiot. The artists that you posted are all for plebs. Literally every pleb heard of them (Kate Bush, Fiona Apple, Joanan Newsom, Patti Smith). They're also manistream artists and had hits.
Grimes is an indie patrician electronic artist, unlike your big label super-marketed artists that have armies of people working for them.
Luis Rivera
Grimes is horrible to you because you have shit and predictible taste. You forgot Bjork pleb.
If you like something dig deeper, never be content.
Adrian Watson
Honestly this
Gavin Peterson
Women are a meme.
Ryder Miller
here. I gave it and a few other songs a few listens and... eh?
Sounds like a girl from a rich family talking about how great life is.
Christian Martinez
>Sounds like a girl from a rich family talking about how great life is. You couldn't be further from the truth. See the attached image.
Isaac Martinez
I swear Sup Forums is just full of fucking fanboys hating on each other.
It's just an image. It's a light joke.
You guys try to extrapolate on the smallest bit of information or data to some broad sweeping, general level. Stop reading genius, ya dingus.
>child's idea LUL
Ayden Russell
>quoting boards as a credible source.
Also says nothing about a rich family. Makes more of an argument about her issues being attempts to fit in with the general populace and alienation is common for rich kids too.
Samuel Hernandez
>quoting boards as a credible source. That's true tho. It's based on multiple interviews of hers. Watch her documentary Laughing and not being normal to know more about her.
Colton Cook
This. Whatever happened to lurking?
Andrew Williams
Ok. I'll have a look later when I'm off. (productive day et.c.)
Mason Bennett
It's a meme you dip.
Hunter Wood
It's a girl happy about how shit life is.
Ayden Stewart
What are you trying? Here's the truth - I'm not a music fan but decided to ask for recommendations - I've entered Sup Forums for the first time in my life today - I saw how everyone argue about Grimes, so I assumed it's a sort of meme just like Bane on Sup Forums, but I could be wrong - I have no idea who Grimes is, I listened to few songs of her posted here and didn't like it
Adam Cooper
>I hope you enjoy what you're seeing on this board so far! :) At least it seems healthier compared to Sup Forums >CHVRCHES Not really what I was looking for but pretty good I must admit. Probably the best recommendation ITT so far. Will check more of them.
Andrew Phillips
This dear god, also lurk.
John Morris
OP here. Yes I'm serious. If I'm not wrong there are like thousands of bands and singers throughout the history, so if I spend a week for each one of them to really "get into", I won't even cover 5% for my entire lifetime. But I will take your advices into consideration.
>Music isn't for you, bud. Just listen to whatever flavour-of-the-year bland viral garbage floats onto your tumblr dashboard because that's all you listen to, apparently. Which is strange, because that's literally what grimes is lmao Grimes is established for years, jerk. She also built her career on her own, as an indie artist. Your hatred is showing. Music isn't for you, prick, if you're saying that shit about her.
Kevin Barnes
OP here. I listened. It appeared to me to be somewhat in the middle between things I like - some rather complicated music which I usually listen in a form of some sort of soundtracks, and a female voiced song. So I'd say I rather don't like this, because I prefer either one or another. Btw my favorite soundtrack song is possibly this one: youtube.com/watch?v=qo3VAltxlr8
Henry Gutierrez
OP here. Thank you user, you got it right. This is what I like. Songs like these make me smile, because they sound happy. Not that it sounded better than Taylor, but it's by far the best suggestion ITT.
Lucas Reyes
I'm sorry but I couldn't find sticky in Sup Forums. Am I retarded?
Connor Price
why are you such a pleb
Gabriel Martin
Perhaps, although in this case it pay not actually help you find the specific thing you're looking
