What are you listening to today?

I love how people's music choices, and they way they go about picking their favorites, gives clues about their personalities...a point I'm sure has been made earlier in this thread, heh. I'm pretty spazzy, and my ADHD leaks into my music, so I like big, loud indie groups with lots of instruments and vocals (Of Monsters and Men, Broken Social Scene, Florance and the Machine), and trance techno or pseudo-techno vocal groups (David Guetta, Imogen Heap, Gorrilaz). When I need to unwind, I put on acoustic artists like Bob Dylan or Ani Difranco, or maybe Bright Eyes. I hop around in jazz too. Charlie Parker might've been an --Censored--, but the dude was a GENIUS.

What's great is that so many artists today can do a range of styles. I can get simultaneously depressed, enlightened, and want to go out with friends and burn down the town- all off the same record.

I've been listening to Lindsey Sterling. I wonder what that says about my personality.

Lindsey Stirling is amazing! I love her music

Lindsey Stirling is simply awesome. Her music is catching on in a very big way. One of her strengths is she appeals to a wide range of people and she is down to earth.

Hiya,

I can't stop listening to late 80's and 90's Madonna at the moment.

I had forgotten how much I love her music from that time.

Love,

Sarah.

Big green tractor, Jason Aldean.

It's not a song that I thoroughly enjoy, but when I am listening to music to relax, this is definitely one I like to hear. It brings a smile when I listen to it

Okay, you quote Morrison and Zappa and listen to Madonna!

Girl, you rock out loud!!

With love and listening skills,

[Guest crissy_oakley]

A friend got me hooked on "Sweater Weather".

[Guest Sarah_H]

Hi Cissy,

Okay, you quote Morrison and Zappa and listen to Madonna!

Girl, you rock out loud!!

Thank you honey, ha ha.

Your comment really did make me laugh out loud!

I have a very diverse taste in music. From Italian Opera / classical to Plan B (A UK Rap artist). I have been to a few music big festivals, such as Glastonbury (7 times) and Donnington (2 Times). I love live music and have been to many gigs, the best bands that I've seen live are the Pogues (such fun and energy) and Peter Gabriel (pure musical excellence).

I do love my girly music though. Artists such as K T Tunstall, Vanessa Carlton, Tori Amos, Paloma Faith, Katy Perry, Madonna, Rihanna, Beyonce, Alanis Morissette and Amy MacDonald are my favourites. I even like some of the girl groups such as the Sugababes, The Saturdays and Girls Aloud. Ha ha.

I just think that if music is good, then it's just good and I enjoy it for what it is.

Although, there is one type of music I don't really like and that's hardcore electronic dance music.

Love,

Sarah.

O wow, I'm listening to trance dance/electronic stuff right now.

As to bands, I grew up in the 60's and Morrison was God! I loved Zappa, the Dead, 10 Years After, Hendrix, Cream, etc. In fact, I saw Zappa & the Mothers twice. The second time was when he toured with Flo & Eddie after their White Album came (Happy Together!)

The best concert that I ever attended was at the Newport Jazz Festival. (My home town, by the way.) I saw 10 Years After, Jeff Beck with Rod Stewart singing, Blood, Sweat, & Tears, & Jethro Tull.

This was in the Spring of '69, it was an outdoor concert, and for a really great seat I paid $7.50!

Since (though mostly back in the Day) I've seen Three Dog Night, The Grateful Dead (right after they released 'Working Man's Dead' and Pigpen was still their singer,) C.S.N.&Y., Fleetwood Mac, Dylan (of course,) The Doobie Bros., Fairport Convention (had dinner with them!,) Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers, The Kings of Leon, a great band out of Canada called Blue Rodeo, Earl Scruggs and his family (hung out with them) etc., etc., etc.

Actually had tickets to a Doors concert in my hand and it was cancelled after that mess in Florida.

In High School I played organ and sang in several bands. Always wished I'd seen Lee Michaels when his career was still going on,

Anyway, back to the techno.!

With love and rhythm

Cissy
