In all seriousness, what kind of music do you listen to, Doug?

And what didn't you like about the Raleigh song, which is the only one posted which I wrote and sang and am even halfway interested in? Was it the poor recording quality? My mediocre singing voice? The fact that I rhymed "Genevieve" with seemingly nothing?

I'm mostly asking because I'm thinking of starting a semi-edgy adult-contemporary band called Superplain which you might find a lot more up your alley. I imagine writing a bunch of whiny ballads in the Counting Crows/Train/Matchbox 20 vein about all the things I've never done, dangerous self-destructive orphan women, and what a grey uninteresting place I live in and how I wish I could go back to some beautiful sunshiny place like L.A. They'll go something like:

I never ever tried a crack,
Or invented a human spider act,
Or rode a freight-train, or ever once tried
Man-man fellatio...

She always drinks grape soda in her high heels!
Says she was an extra once on Al-ly Mac-Beal!
Walks down Sunset Strip dressed
Kind of like a geisha...
Like a geisha...
Like a geisha...

<WHINIER PART - WITH STRINGS!>

'Cause everyone in this place
Is always thinking exactly the same thing as me,
Even as I'm thinking it -
Even right now,
And now,
And no-o-o-o-w!!!!!!!1!!11!
