Erika Bedwell writes these great songs that remind me of Daria, you should check them out http://youtube.com/v/zwAEKy72zE4 http://youtube.com/v/DZZn1JJPPIQ http://youtube.com/v/9omvbUQ93jU If you like her stuff you should definitely subscribe to [url=http://www.youtube.com/user/bikinikiller08]her youtube channel[/url] and tell your friends!
Well in one of my fics I gave Daria a daughter named Suzanne Vega Morgendorffer, because I figured that Daria would listen to Suzanne Vega and enjoy her lyrics. http://youtube.com/v/Z66rDVkaK4w http://youtube.com/v/D8qyk_1xudA And another song that I feel certain that Daria would like is "Hyperballad" by Icelandic singer Björk in which Björk sings about having fantasies of dropping herself from a cliff and wondering how she would land: on her back, on her side, on her front and if her eyes will be closed or open after the fall and most importantly what kind of sound her fall would make. http://youtube.com/v/Beu3ZLr-UEA
I could see her as a Tori Amos fan. But she is also quite obviously a rock/alternative fan. Otherwise why go to a rock concert/festival and a rock club with live bands? Trent not withstanding of course.

"Alive" by Pearl Jam is about finding out that the person who you thought was your father wasn't your father after all and you've been living a lie and hate yourself to be alive in this lie. "Shiney happy people" by REM is about manic depressed people on Prozac.

As a fan myself I think she would definitely identify with their style (and of course thinking of Chris as a total dish) *makes some notes*
Possibly the Pixies. Especially the morbid ones.
[quote="Charles RB"]Possibly the Pixies. Especially the morbid ones.[/quote] Mystik Spiral should change their name to the Morbid Pixies.
Anna Nallick "Consider this a warning" I just think that's the type of girlfriend Daria could be at times
I don't know, but I guess that she'd love Nick Cave's entire body of work. [url]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WFdUTM4gU-o&feature=related[/url] [url]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5R8pECW3UHs[/url] Or maybe some John Zorn? [url]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5qpPYfJ-o3U[/url]
[quote="Dark Kuno"]I could see her as a Tori Amos fan.[/quote] She probably likes Tori's [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wcHNZVrxEts]cover of Smells Like Teen Spirit[/url] more than the original. Much moodier.

You make a persuasive argument.

Points to Wouter on Suzanne Vega and Charles RB on the Pixies... if we assume the air date time as the years in "reality" they both work well... Daria, friends with a musician's little sis would catch a lot of stuff ignored, or a few years old and obscure... I would think she also listened to Throwing Muses, The Breeders, Husker Du, Hole (yes before they were known big time), Dino Jr., Buffalo Tom, Sleater-Kinney, NOFX, Lagwagon, oh hell, I could go on for years...
Veruca Salt (and I'm not just saying that because I listened to "Eight Arms to Hold You" on the way to work this morning). And for a newer band she might listen to, I'm thinking maybe Three Days Grace. Kem
I could see Daria as a Kate Bush fan. http://youtube.com/v/NTUcoR8_pyE
If she felt like playing the part of the Misery Chick, she could always crank up Garbage's [i]Bleed Like Me[/i] or [i]I'm only happy when it rains[/i] but I would think she would be more drawn to the singer-songwriters that told stories regardless of genre. Growing up in Texas, she would have probably been exposed to so many of the great Texas singer-songwriters like Lucinda Williams, Robert Earl Keen, Willie Nelson, Joe Ely, Stevie Ray Vaughn, and etc, etc, etc.

I grew up in Texas and I didn't appreciate any of those listed for quite awhile... sacrilege I know but I still don't care for SRV [i]If[/i] she picked up on Texas Music it would more likely be Sarah Hickman, New Bohemians, Ten Hands, Fastball, Course of Empire, Old 97s etc... If she picked up on any Texas country (other than the 97's punk country) It would probably be more in the Lyle Lovett or Steve Earle area...

Elliott Smith seems like a suitable, and timely, candidate for her listening palette. Daria would probably like The Replacements too. Paul Westerberg's songwriting just feels like something that would cater to her sensibilities. Later on, I could see her getting into something like this for mood music: http://youtube.com/v/rZnJciiFIYI
Or she might be a rabid polka fan.
Of course she is. Quinn HATES polka!
Radiohead. Of course, we already know Jane likes them. http://youtube.com/v/m_mMzOQpe0I

There's SO much country music in Texas, she'd probably be sick of hearing it. That's the way it was with me in Oklahoma. It wasn't until I left that I could listen to country. That said, IIRC, Daria *did* say in Speedtrapped that she could "learn to like this stuff." Sure it was only because Quinn hated it, but the seed has been planted. Kem
[quote="Quiverwing"]Radiohead. Of course, we already know Jane likes them. [/quote] I was thinking the same thing about Boss Hog. We know Jane likes them (or we at least assume she does because of the poster on her wall). It's not too far-fetched that Daria would pick up on some of the music that Jane listens to. Kem

Kem[/quote] Actually, with the exception of Willie Nelson, no one on that list is considered country and Nelson is on the outer fringe at best.
She'd probably like the more morbid country music. Cos, y'know, Daria.
[quote="Cap"]Or she might be a rabid polka fan.[/quote] Let's hear it for Brave Combo!!! <!-- s:mrgreen: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_mrgreen.gif" alt=":mrgreen:" title="Mr. Green" /><!-- s:mrgreen: -->

I even did a fanart based on that poster, with Jane holding the umbrella instead. Kem

I heard "Only Human" by Jason Mraz today and I immediately thought of Jake. I can see him sitting down to listen to it, thinking it was cool. I bet he'd make it about halfway through the first verse before he went nuts and started looking for the squirrel trap... "A squirrel in the tree is he watching me Does he give a damn? Does he care who I am? I'm just a man, is that all I am Are my manners misinterpreted words or only human? I'm human" Or he could end up in the fetal position on the floor, wondering if the squirrel is actually watching him. :p
I can see her liking Jonathan Coulton's stuff - especially the nasty turn at the end of [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LDiDK_yBCw0]The Future Soon.[/url]
[url]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rOxlFJbyl94[/url] I think this song would appeal to her morbid tendencies.
Listen closely to the lyrics. http://youtube.com/v/4-y7DTSfGE0
It's intriguing how Daria's music taste was never really looked at in the series, with the exception of the Beatles tape in "The New Kid". She does't really strike me as a music nerd (otherwise she would talk about it more) but I imagine a liking for 60s bands and then-current alternative rock. And maybe female singer-songwriters too. There's no N'Sync tape hidden anywhere in her room. Not at all. Never. Wherever did you get THAT idea?
She's the right age (or maybe a little young) for Liz Phair's [i]Exile in Guyville[/i] to make an impact on her. Maybe R.E.M. just because.

My guess is that Daria would have enjoyed some Sleater-Kinney and Juliana Hatfield. Well, them along with Liz Phair and the like. I agree that she might like the Pixies, along with Kim Deal's side project The Breeders. They have an odd sensibility that would suit her. But she might like classical music too. I bet would be a big fan of J.S. Bach. Beethoven, of course, and some Mozart. Vivaldi? Yes, I see her as a fan of the baroque. And maybe Philip Glass. She would listen to him at full volume just to piss her parents off and drive them insane. <!-- s:mrgreen: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_mrgreen.gif" alt=":mrgreen:" title="Mr. Green" /><!-- s:mrgreen: --> <!-- s:lol: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_lol.gif" alt=":lol:" title="Laughing" /><!-- s:lol: -->
IN one episode, I think it was Lucky Strike or possibly Story of D, in a scene where she's sitting at her desk, there is a stack of CDs on the shelf next to her. One of them, and you can only see part of it, could be Dave Navarro, in which case it would hav been his solo album. The only problem with that is timing. That album was released in 2001, depending on time frame (this would hvae been in season 5) would have taken place in 99 or 2000. However, I could see her being into - or at least intersted - in that one, given her personality and his persona at the time.
