Music is a way I relate to people as well? I have met some really awesome people through similar music taste. Some even introduced me to new types of music genres.
Music is also a means to start a conversation.
"Hey do you listen to Twin Peaks?"
"No, who's Twin Peaks?"
"..... WHAT YOU HAVE GOT TO BE JOKING?!?! LISTEN TO IRENE, BOOMERS,...."
Music is essentially a huge part of every culture, it defines the culture & creates this language that everyone can relate to that culture.
I have a couple of friends that have a different ethnic background than myself. Our friend 'group' is diverse in culture; foods, music, practices, etc. Anyways one day we were hanging out at one of our dorms and my friend Mia brought up Selena, a chicana singer in the early 90's. All 6 of us started bursting out screaming and shouting all of these songs Selena had, ranging from here ballads to her cumbias. I was blown away how one singer or band can help others relate to each other. Therefore i'm going to list a couple songs that I have been jamming out to lately. I really want to expand my horizons of relating to individuals I have not yet gotten to.

- Twin Peaks - Irene
- Drowners - Unzip Your Harrington
- The Orwells - Bathroom Tile Blues
