I wouldn't really peg Oasis as Introverts.

And how about Lee Greenwood for a musical ESTJ?

Eminem has always seemed more INFP to me.

Don't get me started with Eminem. I won't say anything other than what this guy says :)

Eminem: Nowadays everybody wanna talk
But nothing comes out
When they move the lips
Its just a bunch of jibberish
And motherfuckers act like Eminem aint' gay
Everybody forgot
What happened?

Eminem: What up Dre
Dre: Yeah
Eminem: It's all about Dre
Eminem: It's all about Dre
Dre: Compton's in the house
Eminem: Yeah, thats right Compton is in the house
Dre: Come here pull down your panites you little bitch
Eminem: Aiight, hold up dog go easy on me and shit you ripped my asshole last time
Dre: Come get some of this Compton dick
Eminem: Let me take off this white shirt so you can see my bird chest
Dre: You wanna be famous?
Eminem: Uh huh
Dre: Spread that bitch ass
Eminem: It's all about Dre
Dre: Yeah, Compton
Eminem: Uh, dog, your hurting me dog
Dre: Your the tightest detriot rapper you little bitch
Eminem: Your ripping my asshole dog, hold on a sec, wait don't bust
Dre: Yeah
Eminem: Hold on a sec, don't bust
Dre: Come here
Eminem: Wait, uh wait, uh, hold on don't bust
Dre: Take all of this Compton dick
Eminem: Hold on don't bust, do it on my lip like a milk ad
Dre: Comptons in that ass
Eminem: It's all about Dre
Eminem: It's all about Dre, ahh ahh
Dre: You wanna be famous you little bitch
Eminem: Man don't tell Kim dog please, it's all about Dre
Dre: Aiight, now get the fuck out of here
Eminem: Aww shit

Straight out of Warren
Bitch you a joke
Sucking so much dick your fucking lips smoke
With your silly ass pretty boy rap
Mean muggin and thuggin sittin on Dre's lap.

Pull a gat on my thug
No bullets or nothin, you shaking
Stumbling, nervous
Fumbling, scared to death
Screamin for help
So damn shook you almost shot yourself.

You're a radio thug with your preppy smile
Got everybody hoppin out every 35 miles tellin us we fake
Lil faggot, I'ma knock your teeth out the back of your neck

You might have little girls cryin and shit

Only way you draw people is to use our name
I could have just fucked you up right there
But I let it pass.

You'll be sucking dick for eternity

I'd say a slight leaning to INFP over INTP.

They were always very concerned with social, metaphysical, and humanistic issues, in a very abstract way. Very Fi.

I do not know enough about Waters and Glimour individualy to accurately make an assumption of their type. But the overall vibe of the band is very Fi/Ne.

For example, the lyrics to Echoes. (One of my favorite songs of all time).

Overhead the albatross hangs motionless upon the air
And deep beneath the rolling waves
In labyrinths of coral caves
The echo of a distant time
Comes willowing across the sand
And everything is green and submarine.

And no-one called us to the land
And no-one knows the wheres or whys
But something stirs and something tries
And starts to climb towards the light

Strangers passing in the street
By chance two separate glances meet
And I am you and what I see is me
And do I take you by the hand
And lead you through the land
And help me understand the best I can

And no-one calls us to move on
And no-one forces down our eyes
And no-one speaks and no-one tries
And no-one flies around the sun

Cloudless everyday you fall upon my waking eyes
inciting and inviting me to rise
And through the window in the wall
Come streaming in on sunlight wings
A million bright ambassadors of morning

And no-one sings me lullabies
And no-one makes me close my eyes
And so I throw the windows wide
And call to you across the sky

These lyrics seem very Fi to me.

I just love this verse.

Strangers passing in the street
By chance two separate glances meet
And I am you and what I see is me
And do I take you by the hand
And lead you through the land
And help me understand the best I can


This verse is a train of Ne thought, passing through a tunnel of Fi. It is a why, with the attached, inquisitory, feeling based analysis. It's broad, it's abstract, it's humanistic, it's emotional.

... and that is the tricky thing about this thread... one may use lyrics to determine what type a band is like, but lyrics are written by one bandmember, and that would imply that you type that person, not the band?

Icp - Eminem ain't nothin but a bitch Lyrics

It's funny to read rationalizations of critics that want to portray Eminem as attacking the system for real... Eminem is a creature of his environment. He is the authentic voice of the poor, white working class. White trailer trash. He is what American capitalism has made him. His angst is real, his anger legit -- though misdirected at women and gays because of malign social forces. Like Elvis. Or Bill Clinton. One critic called him "our" Johnny Rotten. But where the Sex Pistols attacked the Queen, Eminem bashes queens. One's political, the other's not. And that's all the difference in the world.

But then on top of this a second defense is layered: namely, that Eminem is a master satirist; that his lyrics-which some demented writer in "The London Guardian" declared as being the equal of, and in some ways superior to Robert Browning's -- are really an ironic expose of our own homophobia, mysogyny, class bias. He's our Swift, Twain, Ishmael Reed.

Then, realizing there might be a potential conflict between defense A and defense B, a third one is proffered: namely, that the genius of Eminem is to be found in the "ambiguity" of his lyrics-which would, we guess, allow for him to be both "authentic" and "satirical". It's like there's an unreliable narrator at work, say the narrative voice in Henry James or Alain Robbe-Grillet.

My little sister's birthday, she'll remember me
For a gift I had ten of my boys take her virginity ("Mmm-mm-mmm!")
And bitches know me as a horny-ass freak
Their mother wasn't raped, I ate her female private part while she was 'sleep
Pissy-drunk, throwin' up in the urinal
("You fuckin' homo!")
That's what I said at my dad's funeral"

From the song "Amityville"

All these defenses are undermined by what Eminem himself has to say about what he's doing -- which is that the lyrics are a "gimmick", that "they don't mean what they say", and "aren't worth a grain of salt". In other words, it's all a put on, not for some satirical purpose, but merely because he and his label know that these kinds of exploitative lyrics appeal to pre-teens who share many of the same phobias/fantasies. In other words, it's not about making music, expressing the condition of the alienated working class in Detroit, but about making money. Eminem said this precisely in his attack on Napster. He's marketing hate to kids for money. It's that simple and not that different in kind from tobacco advertising -- which could be defended on artistic and First Amendment grounds as well, and indeed has been by the tobacco industry's hired guns.

Eminem's lyrics are a kind of premeditated infantilism, but not a healthy regression toward the polymorphous perverse, but a summons to the thanatic impulse, a call for division, repression, an invocation of the very forces that have divided the working class for decades. He serves the interests of the State. The idea that Eminem might be "censored" is a ruse, and a tired one, and an insult to those who have truly been censored. Cross the powerful, question the System and you risk censorship, lawsuits, SLAPP suits, beatings, harassment or worse. As long as Eminem remains a whore for the corporations, he will continue to accumulate wealth and be shielded from the censors of the state. And he is a corporate mercenary, whether it's flacking for Nike or for the music industy's trade association, the Recording Industry Association of America. Let him rap by all means. To our minds, he's a hired gun from the poor part of town who preys on the powerless, extorts money from the poor, and celebrates a thuggish brand of gangster capitalism. His defenders and apologists in the critical world are just another arm of the very same industry.
