This has probably been posted before, but I don't wanna go through 200 pages worth of posts to find it. :sorry:

I like allot of other music. I like pretty much all rock/metal from the British invasion on up to modern rock and metal. I also like some blues, rap, and country.

Here's a list of my top 30 artists: http://www.last.fm/user/rockmetalrules/journal/2012/12/26/5pe913_my_favorite_bandsartists. I forgot to put the Eagles. They'd rank somewhere around 18th.
If you want to look at more of musical likings, here's my last fm page: http://www.last.fm/user/rockmetalrules

FM is my 2nd most played artist overall, behind Stephen Stills.

I could list lots of artists, but I'll keep it brief and only name the few that really represent my musical tastes.

Aside from Stevie Nicks / Fleetwood Mac, I absolutely love:

Siouxsie & The Banshees
Depeche Mode
Madonna
Portishead
Concrete Blonde
The Black Keys
Fiona Apple
Regina Spektor
Kasabian
Coldplay

There are literally hundreds more, but I see little point in naming off lists of obscure artists. The ones above are the best of the best for me; the artists for which I must (and do) have everything. For what it's worth, there are 334 other singers/composers/bands in my iTunes folder, spanning 1164 LPs/EPs and a total of 7405 songs.

hahahahaha.Yes My friends say I never came out of the 60's ,70's and 1980's.

A handful of new artists like Adele I like.

Its not like the old days like i used to like every tune after another and go out and buy the 45 rpm single.

I love those 1980's maxi singles.

I find it hard to get into things like hardcore and most metal, but otherwise I'm pretty open genre-wise (I don't like everything in a certain genre though). Electronica doesn't interest me very often but now and then there's something.

It depends on what era of metal you're talking about. I love bands like Black Sabbath, Judas Priest, and Motörhead. I don't really dig '80s hair metal or death metal.

hello, new friend :)
Do you have a favorite song/album?

WildHearted
02-13-2013, 03:36 PM
Some of my favorite artists off the top of my head, but certainly not the only people I listen too:

Backstreet Boys
Britney Spears (late 90's/early 00's)
Gavin DeGraw
Hanson
The Beatles
Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers
The Eagles
John Denver
Dolly Parton
Kenny Loggins
Michael Jackson
Lana Del Rey

I hate to categorize into genres, but I guess to generalize, I mostly like soft-rock, folk, acoustic, and pop-rock sort of stuff. Not into anything too heavy really, no grunge or metal or anything of the like. I do like 80s dance music but not into current dance music or hip hop. And I have a soft spot for my nostalgic childhood popstars (late 90s stuff).

estranged4life
02-13-2013, 04:34 PM
of music, Minus rap/hip-hop and country (Not enough gold in Fort Knox to make me listen to either genre)...and sad to admit the only time I hear Fleetwood Mac NOW is if I hear their music played on the music system here at the library (Which ironically only seems to play songs that CM sings lead on)

FYI, The current music on my cd player are the Planet P Project's "1931 Go Out Dancing Part 1" (The lyrical content I can see happening in this day & age), "Levittown - Go Out Dancing Part 2" and of the course the epic "Pink World" (Sorry Mr. Roger Waters, but you cannot even come close to Mr.Carey's PPP "Pink World"...No chance in hell)

Amazing, "Hey" is my favorite song ever (well for now). And of course Doolittle is my favorite album. I don't see a bad song here, and "Monkey gone to heaven" is a really pretty song (cellos, unusual for Pixies!)

Mick

Alabama Shakes are great. They're one of the few bands that are not ashamed to make 60's sounding music.
Talking new stuff, well, again, HAIM. I know they sound like corporate rock, but they are great musicians, pop-songwriters, and they dig Fleetwood Mac. What else?

I think Steel Panther is the only band I want to see in concert these days, just because they are the 'hair metal genre's' "Spinal Tap" - Being real musically inclined guys who pretend to a 'serious band' when it is done to poke fun at the whole 'overblowness' of the rock & roll lifestyle.

Minus Fleetwood Mac, I'm more of a 40's/50's/60's type of guy (stuff like Judy Garland, Frank Sinatra, Billie Holiday etc). I'm not really into a lot of bands but I'll list them anyway along with a few modern solo artists. WARNING: You'll probably find my taste weird.

and each show was great. The last one was in OKC where Debbie & I hung out and played host to the Ledge's own wondergirl & her Mom.

Sad to say K.U. puts on a better show than F.M. does :sorry:

And we appreciated your hospitality to us. :thumbsup:

That was one of the best concerts I've ever seen! I've not seen Keith in a few years, but lately I've been seeing less shows for various reasons. Would like to see him again sometime. :nod:

She's really one to keep an eye on. Hope they get something new out soon. Seems B&G has been out forever now.

Love 80's hair metal and rock. Toto, Def Leppard, Aerosmith.... anything with killer guitar. Also, lesser known Queen is awesome!!

I like the hair but I don't like the noise they make.

Hair bands like those mention plus Stryper had great good looking hair and some were better looking then the woman s hair.

I always like to think I have pretty eclectic taste in music, but making a list of my long-time favourites, it's pretty clear that I gravitate towards the straight-up women-singer-songwriter genre.

Top 10 (no order):

Happy Rhodes
Kate Bush
Stevie Nicks
Patty Griffin
Anais Mitchell
Jann Arden
Dolly Parton
Hannah Fury
Peter Gabriel (Yay! A man!)
Marianne Faithfull

Gin Blossoms
Queen
Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers
U2
Toad the Wet Sprocket
Ryan Adams

We have a very similar taste, I love most of these artists/bands especially U2, Tom Petty and Queen.
And to add:

Billy Joel
Elton John
Heart
Paul McCartney
Steve Miller Band
Led Zeppelin
The Rolling Stones

The occasional contemporary country artist:

Like Bryan
Blake Shelton
Jason Aldean
Eric Church
Jake Owen

I listen to a heck of a lot of music, but these are the ones I know the best. Of course I listen to some of the Cars, Genesis, the Clash, Eric Clapton, Eagles.. As well as indie bands and pop artists but at a limited playlist.

Well, I like the song they made for the Olympic Games. It was one of the best songs of 2012!!!! Then I heard other songs, but I'm still "learning" more about them!

Blashphemer!!!!! :laugh: ;)

I enjoy Muse. Though I'm not really familiar with much of their work except for Black Holes and Revelations. Love that album. But yes, I do hear a lot that it seems they've lost some of their creative spark, which is a shame.

I'll have to pick up some of their other albums, soon. :)

Tegan and Sara! Yes! I just listened to a wonderful interview with them on it. Really brilliant women, both. I love their latest album, but The Con is still a firm favourite, for me. :)

Agreed with Tegan and Sara. Although I do prefer their older stuff next to Heartthrob.

I mainly like mostly everything with the exceptions of heavy metal and most contemporary country with my two favorite genres being classic rock and Korean/Japanese pop/Hip-Hop music.

Welcome to the forum, SIlver23. Glad to see another Tegan and Sara fan among the ranks. Although I do like Heartthrob rather a lot.

My friend used to be a huge jpop-head, but I always found it a bit inaccessible. Any particular songs that you'd recommend?

Silver23
05-19-2013, 09:45 AM
As far as J-pop rock goes, I would recommend the Pillows. Not as good as Fleetwood Mac, but a decent rock band.
Some individual pop songs and bands that I like inclue:
-Any Perfume song after 2007ish. (Very electronic)
-Ai Otsuka
-RIP Slyme
-M-flo material prior to 2009.
-Brown Eyed Girls (Korean) have fantastic vocals. They would have to be my favorite group of all time next to FM. No instrument usage, but their vocals make up for it.
-Sunny Hill-anything from their catalog.
-Gummy (Absolutely gorgeous vocal)
-Lee Hi-"1,2,3,4"<-sounds a lot like Adele.

*Most of these artists have subbed versions on Youtube with the exception of M-flo, Ai Otsuka, and RIP Slyme.

I pretty much love everything.

I remember I was playing music at work and one of my co-workers commented on how weird it was to hear Imagine Dragons then Biggie then Marilyn Mason then Kanye then all these other random people, like Patty Griffin and Reba McEntire, that wouldn't be put together otherwise.

Other than that, I love old music. "Angel Baby", "Unchained Melody", other stuff from 40s-60s. I still can't do Elvis, though. I just really don't like him, and it probably stemmed from stealing other people's music and calling it his own. Probably.

Silver23

I can't get into him either.
I don't know why though. I prefer the other greats from that time period, but I prefer someone like Johnny Cash over Elvis.
