Hi, I wanted to ask you what kind of music you like to listen to.

Rock? Pop? 90s? 80s? 70s? 60s? classical? Jazz? Blues? Hip-hop?

Any favorite artists? Singers? Band?

Here is one of my all-time favorite artist/singer - leonard cohen

Being born in the 50's, 60's and 70's, were the kind of music I tended to listen to. Moody Blues; Pink Floyd; Beatles; Simon and Garfunkle. Even a little Back Sabbath and Led Zepplin and even some classical stuff as well... Some of the 80's are ok but that's about as far as I would go... Not a fan of 90's+

Man, what music do I not like.

It all depends on my mood.

I was raised on Simon & Garfunkel, Cat Stevens, Lou Rawls, Harry Belafonte, Roger Whittaker, Gordon Lightfoot, Glen Campbell, Aretha Franklin, Neil Diamond ...

Since then, though, I like everything.

To make a contribution, then as part of mourning his recent passing and celebrating his work:

Did not know him, never heard that before, loved that within a split second after pressing play.

His is the most amazing story.

If you can find it and have the time to watch it, the documentary "Searching for Sugar Man": wow !


EDIT:

Crucify Your Mind is, to me, a pretty wonderful thing:

Here is a more recent discovery of mine a band I never knew before from the 2010s

Here is my sister's favorite pop band from the 80s, Duran Duran :D

Born in the 70s so mostly 70s and 80s music are my favourites, but I also have a fondness for modern remakes of video game music from the Amiga/C64/Spectrum.

However I do listen to a lot of modern music simply because that's part of my job :)

Tomaaz

Pixies, Primus, early U2, The Clash, Joy Division, Kate Bush, Depeche Mode and a lot of post punk/new wave. However, the best song ever is this one:


Marcus

Swedish folk music, of course. And hardcore techno.

johnno56

Swedish... I think the closest I ever got to 'Swedish' was a couple of Abba hits... Not a fan of 'techno'...

AC/DC? A fine group... Not quite my "cup of tea" but some of their music is ok.
