    House music in all its varieties for me - funky, progressive, electro, and the like - although I like the occasional breakbeat and trance record.

    Honestly, I grew up listening to pop. lol. Now, after a Santana concert, I've grown away from it. (Any Santana fans out there?) But anyway, I completely and utterly WUV The Jonas Brothers...lol.

    Play My Music is my frickin' theme song! :D

    Btw, pill 'ed:
    Yeah, Bob Marley rocks! In a...chilled, reggae sort of way...lol...I could listen to Three Little Birds all day...and I SHot The Sherriff!

    You know, it's funny, I was JUST thinking about that movie...lol...it's one of my favorites. But you'd be amazed. A LOT of these country hicks down here haven't heard of Bob Marley. :lol:
    I was so upset! No one knew who I was talking about when I busted out the I Am Legend quotes about Bob Marley! :crying:

    :lol: Me too....:(

    I like that sort of rock that they can't fit into a category, so they just lump it all under the same title of alternative or progressive. Radiohead, Sigur Ros, Flaming Lips, Mogwai, Pink Floyd, Air etc.

    Then I like a bit of indie rock, especially recent American stuff like Death Cab and The Shins, but older British stuff like The Stone Roses and The Smiths. And Weezer.

    Then I like a good singer-songwriter, usually in the folksy or alternative sort of style, like Bright Eyes, Bob Dylan, Cat Power, Imogen Heap, Tim Buckley, Jeff Buckley etc.

    And I also like the odd bit of rockier stuff, like Deftones, Drive-by Truckers, Yeah Yeah Yeahs etc.

    So mainly stuff involving a guitar at some point.

    I have my leanings but really I like a bit of everything, I'm always discovering new music and realising that my preconceptions were a load of rubbish. The only thing I'm not huge on is R&B but even then there are exceptions.

    I suppose - to name names - the genres of artists I usually listen to are reggae, dub, rock, electro, folk, Americana, punk, experimental rock, ska, world music, country, blues and jazz.

    Just :heart: music...

    Indie/Rock/Alternative mainly :p If you're gonna put it all in a box. Bit of metal here and there, bit of pop, bit of hip hop.

    I enjoy pretty much everything and am pretty open mided, but thats mainly what i listen to on purpose if that makes sense :p
