Because I've got nothing better to do on the morning of a Saturday, I decided to post this, a poll about what music you listen to, and from that, we can see what the majority of the forum listens to. Simply because of the magic of boredom .
I don't listen to any of those you've listed, so the results immediately are not a fair representation ... I listen to Indie, Folk, Alternative, Chillout, New Wave and Epic/Vocal/Inspirational stuff.
I like most of those choices. The only styles I really don't like, period, are rap and death metal. Pretty much all of the others, I can find at least one or two artists/songs that I like. Hard rock would be my top choice.
See, I listen to everything.....last night I was flip flopping between Bob Dylan and Aerosmith, with a little Frank Sinatra and Guns N' Roses...then some Faith Hill! I love all music!
I chose pop as I like pop/rock but lately I listen to more...I'm not even sure what to call it. Instrumental/orchestral/soundtracky/Latin-choir-chanting-type stuff.
Rock takes up most of my listening time. And all types of it, too- classic rock, alternative rock, indie, folk, punk, etcetera. The only type I really don't like is death metal and other associated genres. My parents have also brainwashed me into digging classical music and such native styles as bluegrass, zydeco, etcetera. Jazz is also way on the top of my list- why isn't that on here? Also, pop is one of my guilty pleasures that I only listen to when no one else is looking (*coughcough'4Minutes'cough*). Sometimes I do soundtrack stuff- Firefly specifically springs to mind. I have to admit, though, I've never heard of 'Trance.' What is it?
I will listen to almost anything. the exception is the cursing every 1/2 word through the entire song. we were at a chinese restaurant yesterday where they had chinese music playing it was really nice. Don called it water music and it suited it. but just about anything is fine by me. If I can sing along with it so much the better.
Trance is a sub-genre of electronica - usually more mellow than stuff like techno/house. ( There's a Firefly soundtrack? The theme song is cool, and Christophe Beck did quality work for all of Joss' shows... )
There is in fact a Firefly soundtrack, but it's not by Christophe Beck- it's the work of a guy named Greg Edmonson, and it's a totally awesome mix of western and Asian...you know, pretty much like the show. Highly recommended.
Cool. But also...darn! I love the theme he did for "The Message", and it's really hard finding Christophe Becks' work for those shows. Tori, I love Tool almost as much as you... but I need variety!
Mostly punk, classic rock, and metal. I do like some techno and funk on the side, and the occasional 80's new wave.
I listen to all kindsa stuff, but I think I like cutesy Japanese dance music (DDR-type stuff, and lotsa Cheiko Kawabe :redface: )
I put rock because I thought that was the closest... but I mainly listen to international music. A lot of Spanish (=from Spain) music, but a wide variety of it - pop, rock, modern flamenco-type stuff, you name it. Latin American music to a lesser extent, but also quite a bit. I also listen to random Japanese music (I get it from my sister) and, most recently, Arabic music. As far as English music... I tend to like rock/alternative. I'm pretty out of touch as far as the really modern stuff goes though.
