Oh man, I wish I had something clever to say about his music skills but I'm just aww'ing at what he can do with the same song. There's so much change in between what we see live, studiorecordings and then if you also add in what he does with covers.

I'm not a music nerd at all. I love what I listen to but if you start asking me details about why I love my choices or what genres I'd got nothing but handsshrug to give you. What I find hilarious is that I actually love a lot of his songs which I never expected to do. His music choice is generally not mine AT ALL. I fell into fandom because his as you said his sexy filterless diva qualities. I like when people say what the want and do what they want and f* common opinion. Or something alike it.

My favourite band is Rammstein and they suck at fan communication, and fan treatment (I'll keep it short here). But they put on awesome shows, their lyrics are vastly different between songs and themes and they do their thing and couldn't care less it seems whether us fans love or hate it. Which pisses me off at the same time as I like it.

So yeah, his self is what brought me here but his music skills is what keeps me around.
