    Re: What music do you hear?

    I'm listening to Evanescence and Disturbed, when I'm at mood. Usually I listen to Hip Hop, german and american, or soundtracks from different series.

    Re: What music do you hear?

    I must say I enjoy some of the Hip Hop and Rap that my son plays, especially some of the French rap. I also admire much of Macklemore's work.

    Hehe :D
    I must say it's of course not for everyone, but for me this kind of music is honest. I don't like the whole mainstream à la Katy Perry, Rihanna, whoever...

    My son really likes Drake as well. Daughter is the Macklemore fan (she's even had a Tweet from him...excited much? Nah!  )

    I listen to a wide range of rock... really everything with someone singing, and someone holding a guitar.   Also, the occasional bit of other genres.

    Re: What music do you hear?

    I like rock the best. Some of my favourite bands are Green Day, Rise Against, Imagine Dragons, Fall Out Boy (oh, how I miss FOB), My Chemical Romance, etc.
    I also like a couple of artists that are completely different in genre: Owl City, Mika (most of his work), Fun, Adam Lambert, etc.
    Then there are the broadway musicals Mostly 'Wicked'. And Glee, of course.
    And then the complete opposite of my 'rock music': Disney classics Love Disney songs.
    I also like movie soundtracks by Hans Zimmer.

    Same here. Very few songs that I like sometimes. That's why it's really hard to bear that we have a radio in the office.....   All the same the whole day long..............................................................

    Maybe I'm one of the few that enjoy hip-hop/rap. They're one of my favorite genres. I listen to almost everything - rock, metal, jazz, blues, soundtrack, pop - depends on my mood. I don't really like the current mainstream artists that are out - I rarely like a song by them.

    Re: What music do you hear?

    I mostly listen to indie rock or alternative rock. I don't really have many favorite bands, my music collection is a mix of many different interpreters. Oddly enough I get into most songs via fanvideos. I watch a lot of those on Youtube and I already found so many great songs by doing so. The only 'negative' side effect is that I can barely listen to any song without seeing scenes from Sherlock because  I always make the connection to those videos. ;)

    Some examples of bands/interpreters that I like are The xx, Placebo, Muse, Massive Attack, The Script, The Fray, Andrew Bird, Dillon, Florence and the Machine, Of Monsters and Men, Marina and the Diamonds, Mumford and Sons, Blackmail, Ellie Goulding and Owl City.

    I can stand you so well. Same thing with me. Through those fanvidos, it even happens that I am beginning to like the songs I had not liked previously, but I can make a connection then and suddenly it makes sense.

    Re: What music do you hear?

    I don't know if I've said this before,  but I really  like Celtic Thunder and Celtic Woman  music groups.   I've seen  most of their  programs on  My  PBS  stations.   I  did rent some dvds that I hadn't seen,  but  those weren't captioned or subtitled.   But I enjoy their songs,  thanks to the captioning thru PBS,  and their songs are contemporary  I think.   Isle of Tears, Isle of Hope  is the one about Ellis Island.  I  loved CT's New special,  called Mythology.   Keith Harkin reminds me of John Denver.

    Re: What music do you hear?

    Haha. I thought this was going to be one of those "What are you listening to now?" threads and was going to tell you all about how I was watching Judge Judy. Which I've ended up doing regardless, heh.

    As for favourite artists, my musical taste is a little all over the place. I was raised on country and trucking music, while also having a tase for classical as I used to play piano growing up, I also love metal of all sorts, although melodic metal is probably one of my favourite genres (European folk metal - eg Ensiferum, Turisas, Eluveitie, etc), and I also quite enjoy kpop. I also like Il Divo.

    So...if I had to list some artists...

    Sonata Arctica
    Turisas
    Eluveitie
    AFI
    Avenged Sevenfold (pre-City of Evil)
    Ensiferum
    Moonsorrow
    Kamelot
    Super Junior
    SHINee
    LEDApple
    Block B

    Etc and so on.

    Re: What music do you hear?

     I'm young (14 ;) but I like (now) oldschool music. My favourites are: Pearl Jam, U2, Jeff Buckley, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Nirvana... I don't like techno, disco, hip hop...      
    Cassical music? I'm not into it, but when I hear this kind of music I am a bit thoughtful ;)

    I'm sorry that the only think I talk about anymore is BBC Sherlock, but not sorry enough to stop.

    Re: What music do you hear?

    I like movie soundtracks the most, followed by slow music from the 80's and 90's. I hear what I like, there are some modern songs, too, or really old ones.
