Its ok, clicking "other" allows you to voice both your displeasure in the lack of more choices, and feel superior that your musical tastes cannot be lumped into some all-encompassing generic title. I know I felt better after I chose "other".
That is very true, but I am afraid if I chose "other" I will be possibly confused with others who might have chosen Mexican trumpet music as their favorite musical genre. So I think I will abstain from voicing my opinion in this poll.

I really enjoyed this as I do most world music. But I can't get over that the second voice was of a girl. Or was it?
I took World Music as an undergrad (part of my requirements as a Music Ed major) and it totally changed my perspective on world cultures in general and music in particular. I had a professor that really loved and appreciated eastern music and encouraged us to sample and analyze music that was challenging to the ear. This was just one of the styles that I grew to appreciate. Another was Balinese gamelan: <object width="480" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/ldPMifPbngc?fs=1&hl=en_US"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/ldPMifPbngc?fs=1&hl=en_US" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="385"></embed></object> Though I must admit to preferring Javenese style more: <object width="640" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/qaJ_5hcnEQA?fs=1&hl=en_US"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/qaJ_5hcnEQA?fs=1&hl=en_US" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="640" height="385"></embed></object>
