Music you like that nobody expects you to like

This is a repost from the old boards. The original was started by El Machetero. I was browsing the old boards (typical of me to dwell on the past..lol) and came across this post again. For some reason I got a real kick out of it, so here it is again :-).

Classical music is one thing a lot of people don't know I like. Not that I hide it or anything. I only have a Mozart and Beethoven CD but I really like classical music some of it is truly beautiful. Beethovens - Fur Elise is in my top five off favorite songs ever. There's other music but that probably is the most likely to catch people off guard.

Oh one time I was working the cash register and started discussing with the customer who was better Bing Crosby or Frank Sinatra. I think that surprised that guy and his wife. FRANK SINATRA!!! BOOOYAAAHH!!
