Are you like me?

I love music and that's one of my hobby listening to music in different genre,I can play guitar and I just love to sing with my guitar, I can play a few songs in piano but not as good as guitar.Guitar was already my companion since my childhood.I love country song,lovesongs and most of all my classical music.[em]happy[/em.

I love any kind of music sweetie. But, playing any instrument, no. Maybe you should give us some lessons. TATA

From what I have observed most musicians have more then one preferred genre of music and this is completely normal. You appreciate music and the different thing that each genre brings to the music industry together. It's more of an admirable trait then anything.

I like different types of music but i like the oldies the best. I'm a big country music fan but don't care alot for the new country.

I like all types of music.. but playing instruments I'm not so skilled on it.. I play a little on guitar, but not that skilled enough to be able to show it without help or guide..hehe.. need more practice on it.. Its nice to know, you can play a lot of musical instrument.. Good for you.. You must be really rich, to be able to play all types of instruments.. Good luck to your band..

hi basqui, i admire you for being able to play different kinds of instruments! i love to listen to any kinds of music whatever the genre is,as long as i can relate to the song or the sounds were really good to hear. well, i once studied how to play guitar but i just can't learn it.well, my instructor left me without notice.(he is my cousin who used to live here beside our house,but our parents have misunderstandings that time that leads to living separately). i haven't studied guitar after then that's why. but if i have the chance to learn about guitar again,i'd be happy to.

Well, unfortunately I dont play an instrument even though, I do own a guitar. But where our main differences lie is that, my favourite genre is mainly constrained. I am a huge rock fan, specifically Classic Rock, and I think its because I have stuck so much to one type of music, I am not very open to pop or R 'N B. I like some of the sub-genres associated with Rock such as Hard Rock, Heavy Metal, Power Metal, Thrash Metal, Blues and Blues Rock.

Hi, I'm a musician too. I play keyboards (piano/organ) and did so professionally when I was younger for around 12-15 years. I ran a few bands myself. Whilst I cannot play every intrument in the band, I had trained classically as a pianist from a very young age and passed many exams etc. But I like other music like jazz, pop and rock - in fact any genre really. I think when we are trained, we can identify with any music. I can also here nearly every instrument when a band and ochestra played, and could separate them in my mind, which was something many other people I talked to could not do, to my surprise. So this helped a great deal when I used to run my bands and groups. They were great days as a pro. musician, but hard work. I often feel that I would love to do it again now, but when I think of loading up my car to get to different gigs, I know I don't have that sort of stamina anymore especially over the last 4 years since I suffered a heart attack. Good luck with your music. It's a great life! _Derek

We are all flexible.. I guess majority of us are into many different genres of music, because of the singers we like and support.. haha =D We do have many idols whom we like right?? And not all of them are singing in the same genre.. Just like me, i do like country singers, and country songs, but at the same time, i'm into classical music as well.. haha =D I dun like rock, but i like hip hop, as well as latin and pop.. haha =D

I think I am different to you.I like music so much but don't know how to play any music players like guitar, piano, and everything. I wish I could do it like you did but I guess I have different skills than yours and you must be thankful of it. Congrats for being a band leader I know not all can do that idea. Might be that's your talent that you should develop more and more. It could lead you to what you wish to do in your life.

Lol at the segue. :P I play only one instrument and I do get very controlling when it comes to a band. Mostly because the members I get usually are very unlike me (or you, I think), are very one track minded. I really believe that you have to appreciate... AT LEAST appreciate the beauty in all music. Even the pop genre which practically most people dismiss as garbage. I, on the other hand, don't believe in genres. I think it has served its purpose, it has now become the opposite of what it was originally meant for, and it is now time for it to leave. :) 2 cents! Great topic! ++! :)

I'm not contented with just one genre of music. Right now the majority of the music that I listen to is country, but I am familiar with all kinds of different music and I have been for the majority of my life. When I was a young lady, the majority of the music that I listened to was the pop music from the 60s and 70s and then when I was a bit older, I listened to the music that was popular at the time. I listened to bands like Creed, Match Box 20, Goo Goo Dolls and even the Backstreet Boys and N'SYNC (gasp). So, you can easily say that I am influenced by all kinds of different music.

I like music but am not a musician. I also know how to play guitar. Also joining a school band which my instrument is saxophone. I know piano but a little. All I do is just follow the chords and not more on the notes. I'm only good in hearing. Thats what I do best

I wish I could play like you... I wanted to have good skills but to no avail. I have good friends who could really play well on instruments, I just have the pleasure of clapping for them on gigs..

Although I have one favorite genre that I listen to I actually enjoy a whole range of music from big band to rock and roll. I consider myself well rounded musically. I think that people who limit themselves to only one style of music are very narrow minded. Now of course they have the right to listen to what they want but by limiting themselves to one genre they are missing out on so much.

I believe that music is the extension of our thoughts as well as expression of our hearts. There are musics that have deeply touched my life that whenever I hear them I couldn't help but sank into the melody or to its lyrics... I am transported to a different world whenever I hear the song or music that has left a great mark in my life and in my heart... I am like you, too. I love listening to Jazz Music, reggae,R & B, Country music..:-)

I hope I am like you who can play several musical instruments unfortunately the musical instruments doesn't seem to like me. I tried playing a couple of instruments in the past but I guess I don't have the talent to do it. I still like music though and I appreciate all sorts of genre.
