“You're nuts - “Fade to Black” is one of the greatest metal songs ever.”

- Today, I enjoy most of their music, but at that time I was very much “in need of speed”, I guess.

On the other hand, I haven't changed that much. Take my relation to the work of Mozart, one of the most gifted composers of all time. I sure can appreciate and admire his adagios, but what really gets me going is his allegro pieces. Believe me, walking around in Vienna listening to music like this is heavenly. After having done so at a particular occasion, I went straight to Salzburg and saluted him (well, the Mozart statue found in one the squares of this wonderful city) cheering “HOCH LEBE!” (meaning more or less “long live” in German) holding a bottle of Austrian beer, Stiegl, in my right hand.

Hehe. I understand - I was very opinionated about music back then.

Mozart and metal - your musical tastes are definitely well-rounded. :-)
