Considering that i take my music very seriously I'd say that's accurate...some R.E.M. songs are just fun though.

For one, heavy metal is fairly complex. Two, the agressive beat has a sense of life to it. Three, it actually has meaning to it, unlike all the crap I always hear on the radio or on the dance floor. I just love the way it sounds. Maybe you would like some of the less aggressive and more artsy forms of metal, listen to Octavarium by Dream Theater and tell me what you think about it (as a bit of a warning, the song is 24 minutes long).

People with high scores on the reflective and complex music-preference dimension tend to be open to new experiences, creative, intellectual, and enjoy trying new things. When it comes to politics, they tend to lean toward the liberal side. Wisdom, diversity, and fine arts are all important to them. When it comes to lifestyle, high scorers tend to be sophisticated, and relatively well off financially. After a hard day of work, if they're not listening to music or reading a book, they enjoy documentary films, independent, classic, or foreign films.


The first result it gives me is relatively accurate. The other three are less accurate, but the fourth is more accurate than the second and the third.

Well, I'm a poor conservative but the rest seems fairly accurate.

Meh, why do they assume electronic music=energetic and upbeat music...?
Also, if I love pop music, then I also have to love Religious, Country, and Soundtrack music to be rated as someone enjoying fun and simple music...? I strongly disagree :)

You got the highest scores out of all, does this mean that you almost like everything?

20% reflective and complex, 17% edgy and aggressive. 0% fun and simple, 0% energetic and upbeat.

They don't know me very well. I started playing guitar more than thirty years ago partly because I didn't like what I was hearing on the radio. I've written hundreds of original songs. Most of my songs are similar in style to the classic rock from the late 1960s to the late 1970s, but with some punk, reggae and eastern influences.

Besides making wrong statements about my musical tastes, which they at least got partly right, this survey's results are completely bogus in regards to my personality. What they say about my personality is very wrong. Presumably whatever criteria being used apply mainly to NTs?
