music is similar to language. it is as impossible to have a single piece of music loved by all as it is to have a book that is comprehensible in all human languages, and which says something that all people find pleasant. this does not mean that objective criteria on which to judge music are impossible: just that which criterion to employ in a specific circumstance is subjective. -J. e-dog, peace out muthafuka --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
