In my first year at university, my roommate would play that "Save a Horse, Ride a Cowboy" on party/drinking nights to the point of where I would want to constantly bang my head against a wall every time I heard it. I still hate that demon of a song, and that experience was almost 4 years ago.

My first year of college I roomed with a guy like 6 years older then me. He would blast Jimmy Eat World, Something Corporate, Foo Fighters, Acceptance, and similar bands. Needless to say we became good friends. Lucked out on that. We swapped tons of music

The Bros that dominated the end of my hall last year played a steady rotation of mainstream shit-rap, Dave Matthews Band, John Mayer, and 90's alternative.

That's pretty fortunate, thankfully I got along with my roommate very well, but the musical tastes definitely clashed. I also had to put up with more Kanye West then the average person should in their lifetime.

I'm actually a pretty big Kanye fan haha so he had to put up with that from me. Our other roommate down the hall from us though really liked shitty music. All country and oldies. Fucked with my head on a daily basis cause he thought he was funny. So we pranked him as often as we could

i roomed with my best friend last year. i usually was in charge of the music in our room since i had a bigger music library. we had our differences (she LOVES AVA, i can't stand them. i love The Get Up Kids, but she can't get into them, etc) but for the most part, we agreed on everything. she was my concert buddy and we even drove 4 hours to go to Bamboozle. everyone said it wouldn't work out, but it was perfect for us!

I'd walk in and he'd be blasting Josh Groban.

I have friends who like country music. It's the fucking worst. And they make me listen to it just torture me, I'm sure of it.

My room is right under my sister's, and at like 3am, she will just be blaring the most random awful music ever. We usually agree on music, but at 3am, I think she just likes being a bitch, and she will play her worst guilty pleasures, like this morning she was blasting She Wolf (was a pretty okay song until I heard it like 60 times in one day, no joke).

I just started emailing my roomate who I am going to move in with tomorrow. He says, "I hope you like music, I'm bringing my huge stereo system." So then I asked what kind of music he likes.
He likes Disturbed, Slipknot, Lordi, etc.
Fml....
My worst experience was being fed with enrique iglesias (sp?) all.... day...
DO YOU KNOW WHAT IT FEEEEELS LIKE?!?!?!

I roomed with one of my best friends. He listens to almost exclusively by-the-numbers classical and show tunes. He hates any kind of rock music. I used my headphones a lot.

Tell him to buy headphones and/or castrate him.

Back at my old apartment, our Puerto Rican neighbors that lived downstairs blared Shakira's "My Hips Don't Lie" EVERY morning at about 9 am, on repeat. EVERY morning, no fail. Fucking ridiculous.

Some of my neighbors think it's a good idea to blast horrible pop rap at late hours of the night while they drive by my house. If only I had spike strips.....

my old neighbor would play techno music all day and it was so loud our walls would shake. then every night, he had sex with his girlfriend to Truly Madly Deeply by Savage Garden... both loud enough for us to hear through our paper thin walls.

My fat ugly neighbor blasts country while he stands outside pretending to work on his car.

My neighbors love to blast Spanish music ALL DAY LONG in the summer. They have parties several times a week where their entire family comes over and just dances/swims/etc until like 3 am. I wouldn't care if I was just able to hear my own stuff.

This isn't a neighbor or roomate, but my Anatomy teacher plays the Christian rock complilation album during class every day. Some of the songs are not that bad, but after awhile I get really tired of hearing "We are we are the children of God" over and over and over. I have to hear this for a little over two hours a day because I have two classes with this teacher. Horrible.

i hated my freshman roomate last year. so wat i would do was blast say anything all day. i love the band to death, but most people can only stand max's for a few songs, if at all. the only music experience he had was his former favorite bands falloutboy and mcr. we eeventually had a room complaint meeting because i partied to hardy amoung other things, my music was on his list of complaints.
my roomate is obssesed with Brand New and Thrice. So that worked out. but across the hall it seemed like I heard "FAACE DOWWN IN THE DIRT SHE SAYS THIS DOENTT HURRT" nearly every day.

my old roommate (who i already thought was crazy for other reasons) told me Nickelback was her favorite band. her exact words: "you know when you find a band you can listen to over and over and not get sick of? that's Nickelback for me."

I probably get on my neighbors nerves more than get on my mine. Every time I've visited a friend they're playing godawful music, though.

In 10 years, you'll look back at that and smile.
Or just develop an odd and very strong hatred of Shakira.

that's exactly what i said, and then i proceeded to show her the youtube video where they mesh three of their songs together and you can't tell the fucking difference. but i didn't try too hard to change her mind, she was insane and i figured her shitty taste in music was the least of her problems.

Not a roomate or neighbors. But my mother. My mother for the 15 years I lived with her would play every single cheesy corny power ballad from the 80's. Or some music she discovered from Sex and the City X-)

My neighbor plays drums in a cover band and it sounds like the only songs they play are old 90's hits like Foo Fighters and Everclear. I used to think the songs were alright but they only ever play like 4 songs.
