What music do you like besides Fleetwood Mac?
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/rockmetalrul...e_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. |
The Beatles
Pink Floyd Eagles/Don Henley Dire Straits/Mark Knopfler Queen Meat Loaf Roxy Music Tom Waits Elton John Billy Joel Florence and the Machine John Mayer Bon Iver PJ Harvey Bruno Mars CCR The Band Radiohead John Legend Steely Dan/Donald Fagen Rush Barenaked Ladies Amanda Palmer Thomas Dolby Toto Boston Paul Simon Kate Bush Leonard Cohen Linda Perry Heart Imogen Heap Genesis/Peter Gabriel/Phil Collins Smashing Pumpkins and much much much more.

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. |
Also, It would be cool if you guys could tell us what you like/dislike about other member's tastes.

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.
|
Guided by Voices (my all-time favorite)
Richard & Linda Thompson/Fairport Convention/Sandy Denny Byrds Lots of others, too. |
Am I the only person on this board who likes most metal.(apart from black metal)
|
Hard rock, melodic and thrash metal, pop, soundtracks, dubstep, electro, house... anything with a good melody or groove basically. And ambience is always nice

Do you have a favorite song/album? |
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). |
I like most genres...
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) |
Little bit of everything really
I cannot think at work very well, right now, so I am looking at ya'll's lists to fill the ones in I am forgetting. LOL!
The Monkees a-ha Keith Urban Amy Grant Dolly Parton George Michael (and Wham!) Michael W. Smith DC Talk Michael Bublé Frank Sinatra Neko Case New Kids on the Block Backstreet Boys N'Sync Take That BBMak (yes, I do like boy bands. ;) ) Gary Puckett & the Union Gap Newsboys Justin Guarini Kelly Clarkson Adele Adam Lambert Michael Jackson Madonna Whitney Houston Queen Kate Bush Clint Black Pink Floyd Huey Lewis & the News Debbie Gibson Haley Reinhart and much, much more.....:thumbsup: |

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!) Quote:
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? |
Tori Amos
Poe Abba Kate Bush Blondie Alanis Morissette Sarah McLachlan Bjork Cher (pre-"Believe" era) The Cardigans Charlotte Martin Evanescence Clare Maguire The Cranberries Garbage Portishead No Doubt The Goo Goo Dolls Sara Bareilles |
It's hard for me to come up with lists like everyone else's so here are the artists whose albums I most recently listened to (besides the Mac):
Bruce Springsteen Bob Dylan Leonard Cohen Bonnie Raitt Django Django Calexico The Black Keys Fleet Foxes The Pierces Frank Ocean Fiona Apple Jack White The Kills Neil Young Amadou et Mariam Chiddy Bang Fitz and the Tantrums There's a lot that people have said that I enjoy too, Tori Amos, Dwight Yoakam, Blondie, Joni, Neko, Tom Waits, Queen, The National ... I'm also really looking forward to David Bowie's new music this year. |
