Nothing wrong with your selection! I’ve got Enya’s “And Winter Came” here on iTunes and on a CD in my car’s radio.

[fhayek]

Dorky? Now why would she think that?

If you enjoy them and they are calming, then they must be the right selections.

[mojito]

Believe me, when you have a listen to what’s “cool” these days, being cool is a pathetic waste of time.

I try to listen to the least hip music I can: Currently, that’s Schumann and Brahms lieder.

[LiberConservative]

Leo Laporte, Dan Carlin, and Scientific American podcasts, jazz and loading some Christmas music today.

[St. Louis Conservative]

Well, at least you don’t have any Kenny G or Barry Manilow on there.

In that case, I would have agreed with your daughter.

[St. Louis Conservative]

Also, since you seem to like soundtracks, may I recommend “The Natural” movie soundtrack by Randy Newman? That is fantasic, probably my favorite.

[Lazamataz]

Lots of Nine Inch Nails, Three Days Grace, Crossfade, Stabbing Westward, Linkin Park, Staind, a little Nirvana, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Sublime....

[Allegra]

For Christmas music on my iPod, I have the Trans-Siberian Orchestra's "Lost Christmas Eve" album, some Mannheim Steamroller and some Robert Shaw Chorale traditional songs. I have a few other classics as well.

Nothing wrong with your selection at all. Liberals don't know how to enjoy anything; they're too busy trying to be cool. ;-)

[Enchante]

Since I haven’t yet made it into the iPod/MP3 generation I guess I’m really dorky! I do have a CD Walkman circa 1995 though!

[fanfan]

We have Rush Limbaugh, Mark Levin, and when those are done, we are listening to the audio book of Atlas Shrugged.

She’d really hate me. ;-)

I've been a music collector for years. I have just about every song that hit the Top 20 from the mid-50's through the 70's loaded into iTunes.

I've waded through the 80's and 90's Top Billboard 100 over the last year to get some of the good songs. You can really see the downfall of popular music in listening to that drivel, particularly the early 90's garbage. It's loaded with mechanized drumming, Mariah-like scaling before even singing a word, foul language, etc. It's no wonder respect has gone down the tubes.

I long for the good ol' Motown days when songs had lyrics that were positive and upbeat.

Ah, the old age is showing! LOL!

[united1000]

My kids call it elevator music

[Grizzled Bear]

Megadeth - United Abominations

Check it out. It’s extremely anti-UN.

[DYngbld]

I don't really care what my kids think of my music. If they do’t like what I listen to in the car they can stay home. My kids like talk radio and i will often hear it on the radios upstairs. It brings nice discussion.

[ModelBreaker]

This is a good thing. Daughter’s are supposed to think their Dads are dorky.

[Grizzled Bear]

What’s on your IPOD?
