Now that
Darko's mentioned music again (I know that it came up earlier in this thread, too) - I guess that I could consider myself "different" (than most) because of the wide-range of music that I *really* like...A LOT
Seriously, I can really, very much enjoy *
ALMOST* any & all types of music.
For me, what I most want to listen to and when -is- *Entirely* dependant on my "mood".
The only kinds of music that I don't like AT ALL (off of the top of my head) would be blues and/or jazz.
Some examples (of what I really like a lot) would be anything/everything from:
A). 60's & 70's "Classic" rock and (some of, what I guess some might also call "psychadelic" rock (Kansas, Eagles, Doors, Zeppelin, Mommas & the Poppas, Stones, Beatles, Hendrix, Sabbath, Deep Purple), etc
B). Just about *ALL* of the
"Glam" / "Hair" / and "Heavy" & "Thrash" Metal music of the 80's (everything from Slayer, Exodus, Testament - to the more..."lighter" Motley Crue, Guns & Roses, Cinderella, Ratt, and Poison...all the way up to & including the "Power-Ballads" (I really,
*really* like
Power-Ballads, btw
by the hard-rock & Christian band Stryper (still love hearing their "
1st Love ballad, Europe (the FinaL Countdown), etc
C). One of my (most surprisingly -for some reason- to my friends...and...to the gnashing of the G/F's teeth/her grimacing:) favorites, for the last few years has been...
EMINEM Some of his beats I just find very catchy -and- I just like his rawness & uninhibited lyrics
D). This will just be some "other"(s) that I like a lot -
When Doves Cry (Prince), just about everything by
Sublime, Garth Brooks, Alan Jackson, Toby Keith, the Dead, Pink Floyd, Bonnie Tyler ("
Eclipso total se Amor (Total Eclipse of the Heart)/(English & Spanish),
No Doubt (Don't Cry), Toni Braxton ("
Regressa a mi" (Unbreak My Heart)/English & Spanish,
Spanish Guitar/Flamenco,
top-40,
Techno/Trance,
Jam-on-It...pretty much, like I said...as long as it's not jazz and/or blues.
*Needless to say* = Video Game Music (of all kinds) is also pretty high on my list!
