Seems like the majority rule, UPDATE: Plug theme for this upcoming Sunday is drag and LGBT.

Happy birthday @Neon, @TatsuSan, @Wicked Teletubby and @greedy-pig.

r.i.p.

Probably left a few out ;;

Making me extremely happy. ;3;

Progress in the right direction, at least. Hopefully they'll continue to try to make users happy. I had almost gave up and forgot about them at this rate. I believe @Des already put up how you can view your journals? Looks like it doesn't work for everyone. Hopefully most can save their journals at some point somehow.

^ I love you.

Welcome back and see you around! Hope you continue enjoying MH.

Good to have you back, looking forward to seeing more of you. Do continue enjoying MH.

Pathetic.

Actually thought up of another. *fantasises about a never happening collab*

Let's say you're on Twitter or Facebook and you had the sudden idea and courage to send your favourite singer/band a suggestion or even a link to a release (single, album, mini-album, compilation, whatever!) you think they'd enjoy. What would that particular release be and why? Would you suggest an artist you know they already like, or maybe a new one to them you think they'd enjoy? Maybe one you think sounds like them or one you think they've taken inspiration from? Maybe you just want to put another favourite under the spotlight in front of your other favourites and make them jealous? But for whatever reason, be it silly or serious, explain why. Language barrier doesn't matter here! The one I have to contribute with at the moment is exposing Japanese indie band The fin. (unless they already know them) to English rock band The 1975. My reason for this is that as soon as I heard 'Night Time' by The fin., I got The 1975 feels, mainly because of this song I love from them.

GOD BLESS THIS THREAD. <3

Traditional music with male and female vocals. But which one rocks your socks off most? You're welcome Zeus-sama.

I would say any anime related artist if I could. Actually saying a band, I'd go for... all the bands that sound the same in the majority of their songs. *tries to think up of a long ass list* From the top of my head, I'd say tricot fall into this a lot.

Totally this. I literally think this is why it looks that way. *salutes*

I think changes in a person's music taste depends on who they are mostly. Age might be a factor, but not for everyone. I personally feel there's no way I'll grow out of Jmusic, even if my mum foresees it, aha. My taste in music has been mainly Jmusic for a good few years now ever since I found it after thinking the only music out there was the mainstream pop you see on MTV and such. I still enjoy the music I used to listen to at times. I've never done a full 180° turn, music wise, just language wise I no longer look into anything English and just Asian. It's more like the more I discover/am shown to, the more I get into everything else. I've never been able to move past something I once enjoyed. Yes, even Mr Bieber. Music lovers who suddenly move on from their first love or such might be having a moment in their own life and need a new distraction. Or they might've found something else they believe is a step up. Or because the band has changed, they want to forget they were even ever a thing and find something else to latch their attention onto. It's very startling to see such a thing happen, but even so, it's quite interesting.

Literally the first band and only band I thought of when I saw this thread was One Direction. x'D The only problem I have with such artists is calling them a 'band.' Going back to OD for a moment, they're called a 'boy band.' They don't write their lyrics, nor do they play the instruments themselves (unless this has changed since they first debuted). I don't call them a 'boy band' for this reason, more like a unit. Golden Bomber is my Japanese example of this, even though I'm sure most'll agree with me on both as examples. But... ^ Agreed. So this has never been a problem to me. It's mostly a bit annoying to see/hear the credit not getting to the right people at times, much like how Vocaloid is usually talked about. I look at the producers more so than the Vocaloids used, and some fans I've talked to in person don't even know any producers.

SEKAI NO OWARI and Owl City are said to sound similar. I can't hear it but even so, they did a song together so it may be interesting to see who can hear the difference and who can't.
