Classical, particularly Debussy. I love to play classical music on the piano to. My favorite to play is "Le Petit Negre" by Debussy.

I like synthesized music.

Mannheim Steamroller is a favorite of mine.

1950s and 60s oldies from all over the world, and traditional 1930s-40s style jazz. I like European oldies best. I have a favorite singer for each country.

I like that signature of yours, Chris! It has a hopeful ring to it.

By the way, I'm trying to obtain The Beatles' "Eleanor Rigby" right now. I remember hearing it before, and it appeals to me. I found the lyrics to this song, and it nearly made me cry:

Quote:
I look at all the lonely people.
I look at all the lonely people.

Elleanor Rigby
Picks up the rice in the church where her wedding has been;
Lives in a dream.
Waits at the window,
Wearing a face that she keeps in a jar by the door.
Who is it for?
All the lonely people, where do they all come from?
All the lonely people, where do they all belong?

Father MacKenzie
Writing the words of a sermon that no one will hear;
No one comes near.
Look at him working,
Nodding his socks in the night when there's nobody there.
What does he care?
All the lonely people, where do they all come from?
All the lonely people, where do they all belong?

I look at all the lonely people.
I look at all the lonely people.

Elleanor Rigby
Died in the church and was buried alone with her name.
Nobody came.
Father MacKenzie
Wiping the dirt from his hands as he walks from her grave.
No one was saved.
All the lonely people, where do they all come from?
All the lonely people, where do they all belong?

I have that song.

The lyrics are very sad indeed.

The production is annoying though. During the whole song, except for the chorus, the vocals are on the right channel, and the music on the left channel.

Mainly rock. Favourite band: Radiohead, duh :lol:

Current faves other than that:

Audioslave
Rage against the machine
Silent Hill music
Weezer
Red Hot Chilli Peppers
Nirvana

On the other hand, I absolutely despise:

Avril Lavigne,Hoobastank,Linkin Park, Evanensense and other superficial poser-rockers.
Anything by Britney Spears and her ilk.
Any music that is prepackaged and prefabricated by corporations basically...

No offense to those who are fans of those I listed, this is just my opinion. I am aware there are some Avril fans on this board. Nothing personal :)

Old school rock like Lez Zep, Queen, Deep Purple, Pink floyd, the doors, U2, the rolling stones.

I don't like poser rockers either.

Yeah, like others, I like System Of A Down, Rage Against The Machine etc. Also you can't go wrong with bands like The Strokes & Kings of Leon.

Also I have a soft spot for Prince :oops: .

Thanks! I made it up myself.

My sister is a big Beatles fan, as is my father.

I like a wide range of music and what I listen to will vary from month to month- sometimes I'll listen to the same couple of CD's over and over again for weeks, then I'll not bother with them for a while.

Some of the stuff I always like:
The Doors
Green Day
Vandals
Red hot chili peppers
Nerf Herder
Dickies
NOFX
Bloodhound gang
Bikini kill
Rage against the machine


And I could go on but I won't :wink:
