I grew up on rock and roll, early hits like 'The Twist' by Chubby Checker, 'He's So Fine' by The Chiffons, 'Blue Moon' by The Marcels, 'Tossin' and Turnin'' by Bobby Lewis, etc...into Elvis, Beatles, Stones, and on and on. I still like to listen to oldies and classic rock when I'm in the mood, but I like a lot of the newer alternative rock that's popular now. What do you like to listen to?
 

I've always loved classical music, and always enjoyed playing it. But I'll listen to everything before 1990 pretty much, I cannot stand rap, it isn't music to my ears.
 
I love to listen to most music, Abba, when they were in fashion. I mostly like songs where you can hear and understand every word thats sung, Patsy Cline had a lovely easy listenig voice.I love listening to Susan Boyle, Mylene Farmer, even though she sings in french, her lyrics can be found on the net she always sings about important things happening in the world, and is dedicated to freeing animals that are cruelly treated .Love french music, classical music,Mozart, Chopin, Saint Saens, most of the classical compossers.There are such a lot of very talented musicians,on you tube now as well that are worth listening to, and are never heard on radio.Rap, heavy metal, Hip hop I dont really like much
 
Basicially something on the quiet side.. Rap, Heavy Metal, and some of the yelling songs I can have a bad day without that "noise"...

Funny you should ask that question because where we live, there is a young lady that has made it BIG in the country music field.. We see her around our small village quite often.. She is a real down to earth person and very talkable to.. Cute also..
Her name is Eileen Edwards.............

PS... You probably know her by her stage name of ... Shania Twain ......
 
I have grown tired of the music from the 1960s and 70s - just don't want it hear it again. I was busy listening to children's shows and children's music in the 80s and 90s, so no idea what pop music went on during those decades. :) And then, I couldn't get back into pop music, but I like listening to the big bands of the 40s and rock and roll from the 1950s - even though that is before my time. I also like listening to nature, tranquil and zen instrumental music.
 
A classic rock fan, and a blues fan.
Some but not all of what I listen to goes back to the 60s. I was playing the Grateful Dead on the cd in the truck yesterday.
Geez that goes back a few years.

I like a little bit of all music. Growing up I would listen to more rock and roll and then as I got older I started listen to all kinds of music, it just depends on the mood I am in.
 
Comming from a "proper" music background as a percussionist I enjoyed orchestra and marching band music but as a guitar player it was rock n roll. Then I got sucked into jazz and even though I have played RnR more often, now I'm getting back to jazz on the guitar, including writing.

I'll listen to just about anything except metal, rap and polka. Now there's a combination for a niche band!
 
When I was growing up my Dad had ' a thing' about Nana Mouskouri(sp) and I grew to love her voice too and often listen to her and Demise Russous singing Duets om Youtube, doesn't matter what language ,their music soothes me as nothing else can at times but I also love country music and if hubby's not watching movies will put on Foxtel as they've some great artistes on ., also 60s/70s/80s just about most music I guess but not cRap. and I've got most of Sonny Terry/Brownie McGee CDs, eassy to please really,and with good company and a few ales even better :)
 
I have always love a wide variety of music. I listen to a little of everything. Two of my favorites for music I enjoy singing alone to are Garth Brooks and Norah Jones but my iPod has everything from Otis Redding to Kid Rock.
 
I've also enjoyed a group I "discovered" a while back - Railroad Earth. It's a Newgrass jam band. Been around a few years now but I really have come to like their style.
 
I enjoy a variety but was a die-hard rock n roller, until the rock n roll, that was our era, passed away.

Now I primarily listen to Country. There's still some fairly decent Southern Rock and most of the time the videos make the songs a lot more enjoyable - lol
 
Growing up, heard mostly big band and classical music around the house. My father was a musician and taught us all piano. Of course, as a teenager, I wanted to play the drums which was immediately shot down. Picked up the guitar and he neither supported nor banned it.

What I really appreciate is when rock 'n' roll was being born, I was a seven year-old little twerp and my older sister was in junior high. She used to drag me into her room, put on a record and say, "Listen to this!!" and make me dance with her. God, I love her so much for that.

So, I love everything that's pretty much sincere. Most of that manufactured pop crap that's shoved down our throats makes me gag. I play blues guitar and love hearing all the new indie/alternative stuff the "kids" are putting out these days.
