What is your music taste?

[ses5909]

Music plays a HUGE role in my life and I know a lot of people like music, so what is your music taste?

I think mine would be best represented by showing my last.fm (http://www.last.fm/user/ses5909/) profile.

Tell me about yours!

[Megan]

I really listen to mainly electro - think Ministry of Sound. It's probably because thats all they play in the clubs down here :D But I like it all the same. Shake and Pop is my fav song at the moment (don't know who made it though)

But - I do like rock/soft rock music, wolfmother, disturbed, placebo, kasabian, mcr.... I am thrashing my Wolfmother cd right now. (well, not right now - right now I am in class learning html and java hehe)

watch it update!

If it's only showing the white stripes, last.fm is being slow, come back in a little bit :)

edit: as for specific tastes I'll listen to nearly anything, but I tend to listen to alternative, punk, drum'n'bass, and rap the most.

[shyflower]

Classical, Classic Rock (Queen is still my favorite group), Jazz (Billie Holiday, Sarah Vaghn, Cleo Laine), Big Band, Show tunes (love Andrew Lloyd Webber). After playing piano for nearly 50 years, I'm finally taking a tutorial on learning to play jazz. It's fascinating!

I usually don't listen while I work because when I do -- work stops!

I gravitate toward classic/hard/alternative rock with a smattering of blues and jazz.

It would be cool if signatures on the site allowed images to be used, then we could put our last.fm recent list right in our signature :p

[LiquidReflex]

Mostly hard rock, some heavy metal with some 80's "hair bands" mixed in. Of course I am open to a wide variety of music ... my iPod has people usually giving me odd looks when the random shuffles from Metallica to the Who, to Ludacris, to Garth Brooks, to Poison, etc. :P

[MrSpooky]

http://www.last.fm/user/MrSpookyPants/

metal! \m/

and a bit of other stuff thrown in there too (DMB, BNL, The Why Store)

[pbradish]

Rock, Metal, and a little bit of Rap.

[BPartch]

I listen to metal, rock, jazz, classic country and blues.

[Golgotha]

I'm old - I like:
- Van Morrison
- Bob Marley
- James Taylor
- Willie Nelson

I almost forgot, you can actually listen to some of my music on my personal blog here: http://www.whatasavage.com/
Click on the CD cover on the right and it should play...

- James Taylor

I sang happy birthday with james taylor once (true story!) Didn't even know it was him until a few days later though, I just thought it was some guy on the restaurant staff :eek:

[Golgotha]

really, that's awesome. Had did you find out it was him and why did you think it was restaurant staff? He's fairly tall and balding these days...

[Dan Schulz]

Let's see... hard rock, classic rock, alternative rock, classical music, (some, but not much) country (the ones that have a story to them, not this pop country garbage), blues on occasion...

But I won't listen to rap - ever. As I tell my friends, the record company executives took the "C" out to make it marketable.

[HAWK]

Drum'n'bass primarily, but I also like old school metal, and amazing melodic stuff like Dido and Sarah McLaughlan.

Hahaha - You know I had to play 'where does the c go' for a second there :D

[xxJoyfulxx]

All sorts of genres really, but my favs lately range from cary brothers, 30 seconds to mars, genesis, saosin, john mayer, imogen heap, madina lake, joshua radin.

oh and i'm too cool for a LastFM profile, btw. In case you didn't know.

[BPartch]

[HAWK]

What sort of old school metal? Metallica, Motley Crue, Suicidal Tendencies (kinda more punk I guess), Megadeth etc

[country-writer]

I'm old fashioned- I play my LP's still! Love Tower of Power, Grand Funk Railroad, Chicago, Jethro Tull, and on the more mellow side- Carpenters, Peter Paul & Mary and The Righteous Brothers.

[t(-.-t)]

Someone told us the next day that it was him. The only time I had ever "seen" him was on an episode of the Simpsons though so I wasn't the best person to spot him either.

I thought he was restaurant staff because he's part-owner of the place and was coming in and out of the kitchen a lot that night. :)

[doorlight]

Hnsn. lol.

I also like Avril Lavigne's.

[Golgotha]

@ t(-.-t) - that's great!

You should get this James Taylor album (http://www.amazon.com/Best-James-Taylor/dp/B00007IT8S/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1/002-1950614-7345615?ie=UTF8&s=music&qid=1185282359&sr=8-1). I don't know anyone that doesn't like James Taylor... even if you are a metal-head. Give your brain a break from the pounding and chillout...

[ferrisbueller]

Currently, I,m a big fan of The Killers, Mark Ronson.
Old Skool stuff like Moby, Jimi Hendrix, 70s Disco ....
Oh, and I like a bit of Soul - James BROWN - HIT ME !!! :D

In fact I like many types of music - all that time spent in my bedroom !!!

[Golgotha]

good call, James Brown is money... FYI, James Brown is some of the best music to listen to while programming...really!!

[ses5909]

FYI, James Brown is some of the best music to listen to while programming...really!!

I was thinking more along the lines of Static-X :cool:

[jlee]

I like a bit of everything (minus most rap) but my favorite genre would be country. Favorite musicians is quite the range: 30 Seconds to Mars, Johnny Cash, Elvis Presley, Garth Brooks, Jessica Harp, the Wreckers, Josh Gracin, 3 Doors Down, Cross Canadian Ragweed and so many more!

[HAWK]

I love Dr Hook!

[Jeremy]

Yep, Dr. Hook is one of my all time favorites.

[Golgotha]

I forgot, I think David Gray is one of the finest singer songwriters on our time...

[xxJoyfulxx]

Yep, Dr. Hook is one of my all time favorites.

Wow, I see a little Primer 55 in your playlist. I use to love them back in the day. Crazy.

http://kawaii-radio.net when I forget to charge my Zune before heading to work.

[maxgirlmax]

im more of an RnB kind of guy. :)

[3plus3]

I listen to pretty much anything from rock, rap, pop, easy listening, 80's hair bands, etc. It all depends upon my mood at the time. Usually though I prefer rock the majority of the time.

[dreamr802]

I listen to just about any type of music but I'm not a huge fan of techno music. I love rock and pop the most though.

[dojo]

Sympho rock, blues and jazz .. usually serious music with good lyrics and instrumentation.

[rodaniel]

Hey! I'm not often I see another Imogen Heap fan! Cool!

My musical tastes are all over the map! I'm a major Collective Soul (http://www.2dolphins.com/2007/07/collective-souls-afterwords-coming-soon.html) fan. I also like lots of mid-70s to 90s rock. I'm one of the few people I know who likes contemporary and/or smooth jazz, like Paul Taylor, Dave Koz, Keiko Matsui, and Eric Darius. I also like more contemporary country like Martina McBride, Keith Urban, Brooks & Dunn, and Diamond Rio. I'm not much for the nasal-tone, whiney newer junk they have the nerve to call R&B (Alicia Keys, please stick to the piano!), but I do like old Commodores, Aretha, Tina Turner, and some other true R&B greats. And I don't care much for rap or hip-hop stuff, but I do like Linkin Park & Evanescence...

[Calypso]

I love classic Broadway (Oklahoma!, The Sound of Music, Brigadoon) as well as just about anything by Andrew Lloyd Webber. My other favorite is 80s rock.

[fatnewt]

AFI remains my favourite band, both the old and new. I'm really liking Coheed & Cambria these days.

[kimberlybarryd]

Classic Rock all the way.

[samwoodfin]

It's difficult for me to make a list of bands I like, because there are several from which I only like one or two songs, but here goes: The Pixies, Erasure, The Killers (as remixed by the Pet Shop Boys), New Order, Shout Out Louds (once Tommie Sunshine got his hands on them), Hellogoodbye (Tommie Sunshine again), Big Audio Dynamite II, Billy Bragg, Bowie, The Format, Me First & the Gimme Gimmes, The Clash, Shane MacGowan, Bikini Kill, The Hong Kong, Say Hi To Your Mom, The Cure, Depeche Mode, Sinead O'Connor, Oingo Boingo, Violent Femmes, X, and Yaz ("Situation").

[malique]

Michael Buble, Travis, The Fray, John Mayer, James Morrison

i could go on you know..

[davemcnally]

Thought I should post here to clear up a couple things for my Twitter followers ;)

I listen to a wide variety of stuff, almost anything besides 'dance' music and heavy rock/metal. Lately I have found myself listening quite a bit to Keith Robinsons latest mix - http://www.dkeithrobinson.com/entry/take_and_tape_four/

Not usually my first choices, I hadn't heard of most of those before but some of it seems to be helping me work more which can't hurt!

[hurgoll]

Want to hear something weird? I made a Chuck Berry and a Willa Ford channels Pandora and mixed them. I like it though. :)

[ses5909]

Now, THAT is weird! But music is great like that...we get to mix it all up :D

[t(-.-t)]

how can you philistines not like rap music :mad:

[Dan Schulz]

You know, I do have a joke about rap, but I'd have to run it past Sara before I could post it...

[deronsizemore]

Alternative, rock, some rap, some metal, and can stand some country.

[indietravel]

Rock, pop-rock, punk and jazz does it for me.

Most listened to recently would include
- Amy McDonald
- Neil Finn
- Eight
- Me without you

[Sneakyheathen]

I love alternative rock. My favorite bands:

Maroon 5
Motion City Soundtrack
Uncle Kracker

Sometimes I'll listen to random hip/hop songs.

[despatcher]

Musical taste? Some say I have no taste at all :D

Anyway, I keep listening to 70-ies and 80-ies and totally ignore modern "music".

[corleone]

I would say my music taste is Ballad Rock and Commercial Rock. Guns and Roses and Aerosmith for example

[smooth=1]

slow rock, RNB and hip hop, i dont like heavy metal

[daveanne]

i really love music with beat and also the songs of carpenters....

[vimbite]

I love music so much because I'm in a band playing bass guitar.Music is my life, without music maybe my life now is so boring.I like any genres of music that sounds good to me,but I listen most to alternative rock.

[kingjacob]

Just about everything. I mainly listen to Indie but I like most of every genre except country I only like some of that.

[flashgordon]

I prefer the oldschool roots reggae from the early 60s.

Other then that, classic rock will do.

[mye01]

i love listening to jazz and bossa nova..i love laid back music..i love chilling out and drinking my favorite espresso with astrud gilberto on the background..:'"

[sassygirl]
