YOU'RE MISSING OUT!

You know some stuff... but I would recommend a nice "Oldies" or "Classics" playlist on Spotify! You will thank me later.

It could use some work.

Props to you for listening to the classics! You know enough to know a pretty great range of music. Just be wary of getting in heated debates with music history buffs!

You are pretty cultured!

You know your facts, and therefore, you are allowed to state your opinions to complete strangers because you can hold your own! Good for you for listening to the classics!

You're a music GENIUS!
