Steve Perry's "new fave"

Postby Lilla_Forever » Fri Dec 08, 2006 9:50 pm

In the Fan Asylum Q & A, Steve Perry said:

"I have a 60 Gig ipod and it's PACKED with tons of music from old school R&B to Enya to Zep- The Beatles to- Radio Head- Snow Patrol- The Els- Jelly Fish- and my new fave - MEW- and many more digital love chunks of music."

Funny, because MEW is in fact a Danish band, I didn't know that they were so well known in the States. Do any of you know them? It is certainly not my cup of tea, but hey, different strokes :)

No, it's funny how artists can produce one kind of music and privately listen to something which is worlds away from their own sound. But I guess that's what makes the true artist, that they have eclectic tastes...

He does like a wide range of music, doesn't he? I bought Eels after he listed some songs as faves on his iTunes list & I really like it (the fave song makes me laugh)...I like when he shares his faves. Some of his choices I had already had before I read he liked them, such as "Keane", "Postal Service", "Snow Patrol"...I also have some Enya I downloaded before...pretty neat to see what we might have in common, but I think SP likes EVERYTHING! :)

Steve has said in interviews that there are things he like about all kinds of music from Heavy Metal to Bluegrass and everything in between. I guess that's why he participated in things as diverse as Jason Becker's Primal and Clannad's White Fool. He also said he has all kinds of music in his head. I just wish he'd get it out of his head and onto a CD, no matter what it is. :wink:

I was just glad that he mentioned JellyFish. THAT BAND should've been huge.

I listened to the snippet of "A Dark Design"...and IMO Steve likes it because he likes "inverted" chord changes...which are chords in a structure of music that are - and sound - "unexpected".

Just listen to the tape-loop instrumental on the home-page for a few seconds...it sounds "off-balance", doesn't it?
