Your favorite genre/band/artist, etc?  

My favorite genre of music is country mostly for the fact that I can listen to it and can really understand it. My favorite artists are Kenny Chesney, Montgomery Gentry, Keith Urban, Carrie Underwood. Really this list could go on and on. However, I also really like listening to a lot of other genres of music as well.

The only kind of music that I don't care for is punk/heavy metal. The reason that I don't like this genre of music is that I simply don't understand it. If there was someone to enlighten me on it, perhaps I would grow to like that as well.

I consider myself as a very ecletical guy. I'm not ecletic enough to enjoy absolutely every music genre, but I can enjoy really different stuff, like Blues and punk rock, and country, pop-rock, or bossa nova (a brazilian genre of music).

But mostly, I'll always go with rock. Almost every kind of rock genre. I'm kinda hard to satisfy, 'cause I need the hard and the soft, I need the happy and the depressing. I seek a very large range of human emotions (in music, in life, in movies, etc), and gladly I can found all of them in rock/pop-rock.

Things like The Beatles, Aimee Mann, John Mayer, Radiohead, U2, Coldplay, Travis, Keane (I LOVE Brit-rock) are perfect to calm me down, and calls my sensitive side. Nonetheless, things like Chris Cornell, Nirvana, My Chemical Romance, Led Zeppelin, Muse, Fiona Apple, Franz Ferdinand, White Stripes and Evanescence are perfect for moments of extreme good and bad emotions, anger, desperation, fury, revolt, and big excitment.

Music is emotion, so I love any song who can connect to me at this level.

Being old enough to be your grandmother, I was quite shocked to see The Ramones & Billy Joel on your list of favorites. My absolute favorite genre of music is the Blues, followed quickly by Jazz. I love Classic Rock also as that was the music I grew up with. I had a period where Country was my favorite, but I seem to have grown out of that phase once I was introduced to the Blues. Some of my favorites are Stevie Ray Vaughan, BB King, Eric Clapton, Theloneous Monk, Shirley Bassey, Eva Cassidy, Bonnie Raitt, The Beatles, Rolling Stones, Pink Floyd, Queen, Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin, Creedence Clearwater Revival, Bacchman Turner Overdrive, Kansas, The Grateful Dead, Kenny Wayne Shepphard, Michael Buble, Celine Dion. I appreciate almost any kind of music except Rap & Opera ...although you might catch me listening to some Rap every now & then.

I rather enjoy folk punk or anarcho-punk... I like bands such as Citizen Cope, Green Day, Mischief Brew, Defiance, Ohio, Grim Dylan, The Descendents...

i do listen to different genres from jazz to punk, from metal to dance music, reggae, ska, alternative, even glam rock. i don't really want to limit myself in listening to certain genres only. i'm not really a big fan of pop music though. i do listen to it every once in a while but sometimes i think it's overrated so i usually resort to listening to everything else except pop. i like a lot of bands/artists too and it depends on my mood what genre i listen to. :)

My favorite genre is the post punk or alternative 80s. I also like some 80s punk. My favorite band would be The Smiths as well as Morrissey "solo". Other favorite bands include The Clash, Social Distortion, Echo & The Bunnymen, Psychedelic Furs, Bauhaus, and others. As for genres I DON'T like... Well, I don't like country because I hate the twangy voice and find it annoying. I also don't care for hip hop. Not sure why, but I just don't.

What are your favorite Clash and Social D songs? And do you like Big Audio Dynamite?

I can't say that I have a favorite as I love a large variety of music. I listen to so many different bands and genres.....mostly rock but not entirely. I like many of the bands that you listed. I also like The Used, Bob Marley, and almost all of the old rock. There are some bands that I only like one or two songs ....I even like some very, very old stuff that no one listens to anymore.

Really I am a flexible man when speaking about music. Really my basic is pop genre, I love it so much, because it has a good composition of the music. But I also like many genre of music depends of my mood. I like to hear rock or punk music when I energetic and I always listen the blues or classical genre when I want to feel calm, so it's change depends of my mood. If speaking about a rock music, I like hear My Chemical Romance, Avenged Seven fold, Mr Big, and many more. If a pop band, I like a band from my country, such as Peterpan, Jikustik, D'masiv, and many more.

I love music and I can listen to almost all types of genres. It doesn't really bother me to listen Classical, Alternative, Pop, Rock, RnB, Soul, Jazz and so on. But these are my few faves though: The Fray, NickelBack, Ne-Yo, Rihanna, Beyonce, etc.

My favourite genre is definatly pop punk such as all time low and the starting line but I am also really into indie such as the arctic monkeys and biffy clyro, both bands are great musicians
