Get the FOLK outta here

Ok can someone give me an example please of what folk music is because im a bit lost and i need some clarification on the subject
So help me out before i lose my folkin mind

Someone told me that the music on that movie Juno is folk music but i dont know if i trust that person
So help me out and give me some learnin on the subject

not me!

How could you lie to me like this Juno?!
Your lucky your a girl and your preggers or you would be goin down! and i would play folk music while i was takin ya down

i believe the music in the movie Juno is considered folk music. and im not sure if its true but my mp3 says that the lonely island is folk music but idk if its really true
idk if i trust my mp3's judgement

I'm shocked. I've actually never heard of "Juno". Does someone care to explain a bit about it, please?

JUNO!
guy and girl are friends
guy and girl fool around
girl gets knocked up
girl puts the girl up for adoption
girl uses overly clever overly written witty qoutes to decribe events that are happening (its funny at first but quickly got annoying kind of)
There also "FOLK" music in certain spots of the movie
Yea thats about as indepth into the movie as im getting. it was an ok movie the first time i saw it. But 13 times later (probably more) its gotten a lil old and slightly annoying

For good ( and rather funny ) folk music just listen to the smuthers brothers , my favorite of theirs is boil that cabbage down and YOU NEVER HEARD OF JUNO it rocked ( I rather liked it ^_^ ) and the music in the movie is folk i should know my dad has a folk band which i rather enjoy ( I use the rathers in my post to tell you its my 70th, or whatever, post ^_^)

Never heard of em guess I'll have to check them out sometime.

hey how come theres a folk section but no polka section

You have the power at your disposal to create a polka section. No one is stopping you!

well actually I'm stopping myself cuuuuuuuuuz i dun know any polka music , except for wired Al yankovich

Well then it seems I must research the topic myself and perhaps make one.

aww but it would stay all lonely cuz no one listens to polka .

Well I've found some polka music but the music I found was kind of all the same lol I'm sure theres more variety I'm just not searching in the right places.

Okay, then, Waffles!

so much folk music so little time

Yep. Just don't know what the folk to do lmao. Someone told me the name of that folk band in Juno but I forgot the name lol

nice lol

I know it was a weird name though...Just can't seem to remember it!

wasn't it something like old countryish like the bumble bee gang or something ( bumble bee gang a band that played at a weird festival thingy and was pretty good ) hey does bluegrass count as folk?

I think thats more countryish but I think the 2 genres intermix a little bit. So sure it does!

:O then brother where out there is a perfect movie for this topic .

Hmmm. I'd have to think about that...Nothings really comin to mind.

i heard a really folksy song on the radio today it was all folk words folk words folk words (not the actual lyrics)
