:)

what sort of music do you guys like?

i figure if everyone names about 5 bands/artists that they enjoy listening to it might get other people into other music too, and we could recommend new music to each other. :)

go! g6wvuymh87

Bon Jovi
Matthew Ryan
Keith Urban
Van Zant (their new country album)
U2

this is the stuff I've been listening to lately...now with the exception of Matthew Ryan and Bon Jovi, the rest of it rotates in and out with all kinds of different stuff...I just got in my INXS greatest hits cd, so I'm sure that will find it's way over to the rotation soon... fgtb76

I just listen...depends on my mood...lately, been on a motown kick. Growing up in HS, my favorites were Prince and Chicago...yeah yeah...big big huge difference

not really...Prince can play virtually every instrument...and early Chicago had virtually every instrument in their music... ;)

yup...chicago 17 was the last I liked them, and I dont care what you think of Prince, the style of music he was doing in the 80's is still around today...dude is a genius!

dude..I love Prince...even when he was that freakin' sign and then became the Artist formerly known as...then back to Prince again...some of my all time favorite songs are Prince songs.... fgtb76

yup, same here!
My soccer team is purple, and I suggested Purple Reign as a name...they chose "Grape balls of Fire"...hey, their ages are 10-13...

So they're the "Grape Balls of Fire" or the Regulators?? or both?? iy88767

the under 18's (ages 13-17) are the Regulators, the under 14's (10-13) are the Grape Balls of Fire...I coach 2 teams

Prince rocks!!!

Listening to these days? Well everything from new country (Alcohol) to old Nelly. I like all music. Nezto even got me listening to some Rap commie music g6wvuymh87

I thought you said you only listened to your wifes singing?

Geez...you sure do like watching girls kick balls... 56yr23 =7856 beyhg456y

Ha ha ha nr6 b667ur 7imt78

Yeah your really old beyhg456y

I like lots of different stuff - pop, classic rock, 80s, Broadway musicals, some contemporary Christian. I don't care much for country or rap or hip hop. With a 10-year old girl, I'm beginning to like anything by the Disney channel gang - Hilary, Raven, Jesse etc. Might as well like it - I gotta listen to it!

Destiny's Child
The Manhattans
Etta James
Sam Cooke
The Whispers

ac (adult contemporary)/jazz/blues/pop/rock/a little heavy metal (not much)/country/new age/instrumental/a little hip hop/r&B/latino/world music

Mad Caddies

Tom Petty
Less than Jake
Sex Pistols

I listen to different kinds. Right now the mood has been 3 Doors Down or ColdPlay

Ramones
Pennywise

If country, it's old school only
George Jones

If I am in no particular mood
John Prine
Steve Earle

Somedays I will spend all day listening to Rat Pack music.
Some days classical some days blues.

Two albums I can listen to daily are Cheap Trick Live at Budokan and Blondie Parallel lines.

Not trying to sound eclectic, I just grew up around all types of music and appreciate most all.

I listen to a lot of the current Top 40 stuff on my drive in the am and pm. When I listen to music I choose, it varies greatly. I, too, love Prince and got my son to listening to him after forcing him to watch Purple Rain with me. He (my son) is into all kinds of music and gets on that Motown kick, too, but he also knows every rapper out and the lyrics to their songs.

I like country and listen to the old stuff on Saturday nights: I like classic rock, especially AC/DC and also Southern Rock. Heavy Metal and Southern Rock are probably what I listen to the most, then old country.

I also like 3 Doors Down, I have met them twice. They are great guys.

Molly Hatchet!!!!! g6wvuymh87

Well sure, if you consider playing nothing but powerchords great.

As for myself, I am very very strict about what goes past my ears. No Top 40 bs, and I really hate mainstream(anything mtv recommends on a daily basis) music. No Rap, no country.

For a Top 5 list:
1. Led Zeppelin
2.Dream Theater
3.Pink Floyd
4.The Allman Brothers Band
5.Liquid Tension Experiment

So it's mainly a mix between Classic Rock and Prog Metal, but I also love Modern Orchestra, and alot of Indie(Independent/Underground) rock.

When It comes down to it, for me, it's all about the musical talent. I really don't put much effort into lyrically based stuff, for I am a firm believer in using instruments, but using them well. That's kindof why I really really hate modern Rock. It's total bullshit, anyone can pick up a guitar and be doing what they are doing in 2 weeks(talent-wise).

Face it, Labels just don't give a shit anymore. It's all numbers to them. If a bunch of pre-teens what to watch Brittany Spears make out with chicks(or what ever the hell she does that week) on TV, then who the fuck are they to say no? It just gives 'em more money.

A reason I prefer music that can be placed on a higher level than the shallow, unefforted shit that comes out today.

Thanks for totally dissing me and my opinions. The main reason I listen to the top 40 stuff is I drive a long way to work and need traffic reports often, and they have them. I have no cd player in my car, so I couldn't listen to my own music anyway. Why can't you just voice your choices without cutting down others?

Because my opinion directly contradicts yours.

I wasn't tyring to be an asshole. What I said is true, though, bands like 3 Doors Down don't produce music that show off any talent on guitar, what-so-ever.

And really, it all comes down to what YOU like. If you like it, then why should it matter? Who gives a shit about what some 15 year old on a MB thinks, anyways. I = nothing.

But really, I wasn't trying to offend anyone. I was just being truthful about my opinion.

guys guys..lets play nice here.. :)

Bleh, now I feel bad. Sorry guys.

i do see your opinion about record labels though, and to an extent it's something i feel strongly about because there's a lot of bands that i know here in england that have the talent to sell a lot of records but don't get that opportunity because there are already too many bands who aren't anything special selling cd's by thousands, millions even. it's quite sad. but i guess that's how the industry works.

Oldies but goodies
Jazz
Classical
Christian
