I am a huge fan of classical, but my favorite of all time is movie scores.  The music written to underscore the movies.  John Williams is my favorite, but I like Jerry Goldsmith and all of the others.  I like Big Band era music, but I'm not a fan of what is more commonly called jazz (or, to my family, nails of a chalkboard).  I can appreciate many styles of musical art, but I am very picky when it comes to my own tastes.  I'm not a fan of the sixties and seventies, however, and the eighties were awful, but I give them credit for how happy and upbeat some of the music was.  Nope, I'm a pre-1900s, 1920-1940, orchestral, which is a word, fan.

The Olympic Committee has decided recently to award an Olympic Gold medal to someone....someone who has contributed SO much to the Olympics throughout his career: JOHN WILLIAMS!

 

I thought that this was sooo cool, so I thought I would share!! ;)

Country all the way! I love the sound, I love the artists, and I love the stories behind the songs. Lots of country songs have stories to tell and morals to give. And most of the time, it's from the heart. Plus, you can understand what the people are singing! ^-^;; Well... most of the time. I couldn't live without my country music. I have the radio on almost all of the time. My favorite singer is Garth Brooks.

 

I also like classical, and I flip the radio to the local classical station from time to time.

Heavy Metal. No, wait, I mean jazz. Or classical. Hmmm, maybe Japanese flute? Well, lets see what I have in my wallet right now. Gypsy Kings, Miles Davis, Joan Osborne, Incubus, Charlie Parker, Mozart, Barber, Blood Sweat and Tears, Sting, BB King, Evanesence, Dave Matthews, Bela Fleck, Steely Dan, Dire Straits, Santana, America, Ella and Louie, and Disturbed.

 

I'm the most obsessed with Disturbed right now. I just paid waaayyy too much money to go see them in August. I can't wait!!!!

:blink: why do rock stars and hip-hop stars always look at the camera like they wanna boink you? - ugh! - i voted for other, 'cause my FAVOURITE (canadian spelling, ok?) is electronica, namely house music - that's means bass-driven disco, really, but i LOVE it - close seconds are classical, R&B, country, and progressive rock - if you're having a hard time sorting out my tastes, just try living it ...

I like to listen to a number of things. i'm quite sophisticated so i could listen to things like classical and opeara. I also like classic rock, and bands like the Beatles :). Also to blues because it really expresses the artist, like thelegendary Robert Johnson. And that is where most of the modern music today came from. Also Celtic, cause i'm half celtic and i like its culture. There are a few bands i like today, like the white stripes,radiohead and a few others. i like them for there originality. I DONT like rap or metal because music is suppose to be a art, the're just playing the same non-innovative sounds, the're also not being original. Rappers tend to promote negative things and make sterotypes out of most blacks. But thats just my opinion!
