I don't just want to know what genres of music you listen to, but I want you to tell me what is the way that you choose the music you listen to. What do you prefer in music: some music that sounds good? or music with a message? If you choose the first one, the sound, what is your favorite genre? If you choose the second, what lyrics you prefer when you listen to music? What does the music you hear talks about? Please answer sincerely. Thanks.

I'm into alternative pop or rock. The rhythm as well as the sounds especially the lyrics are enjoying to hear. It just simply wash all the negative thoughts because of the beats. But sometimes, I go with any music with a message and sometimes I just don't know. It depends when I start banging my head with the music.

I prefer instrumental. As an artist I treat it like a blank canvas ready to be painted on. I listen to 70's and 80's Italian cop/crime film soundtracks. My favorite composers and arrangemnt is from this genre. Franco Micalizzi,Stefanno Torossi, Stelvio Cipriani, Paolo Vasile, and other similar artists. Here are some examples of what I listen to: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=86SJ2p_tvUs&feature=related http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BFp6ko-Bfk0&feature=related http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x8brGGIr0Vw

My best choice, my favorite is classical music, Chopin, Mozart, Beethoven, Johann Strauss, Brahms, and more. Classical music is very soothing and enchanting. I also like listening to classical music of other countries and cultures. I have a collection of CDs.

I prefer rock and pop and I don't appreciate rap, I think that I don't identify with the message of that type of music.

I love all genres of music everything from instrumental, classical, rock, rap, country, hip-hop, metal, etc. To me music is an expression of ones inner feelings and therefore i really cant pick just one genre. As a musician and an avid listener of music I can say that I dont always like all songs for the same reason. Some songs are just classics and you cant help but to like them, some have a very catchy tune or lyrics and you find your ear drawn to that song, and still others have deep meaning to not only the artist but those listening whether it be because of a current or past situation, a feeling, or any combination of reasons. I therefore cant really say how or why I choose to listen to certain songs I just do for various reasons. Sure some songs its easy to say i like them for this reason or that, for instance whiskey lullaby reminds me of a dark hour in my life so I relate to the song and therefore find myself listening to it from time to time. It just depends on the song, the situation, and really ones personal taste.

I am an eighties hair band nut. They don't get the credit they often deserve. The musicians that blasted onto the scene during the 80's were incredible musicians.
