monkeygirl Posted April 13, 2003 Posted April 13, 2003 I will listen to practically anything: classical music (I sing soprano in a community chorus that just performed Brahms Requiem this weekend) oldies jazz - especially swing music like Glen Miller classic rock - classic Aerosmith, Bad Company...hate the Rolling Stones, though...Mick Jagger is annoying disco - as corny as it is, I love it! 80's music like Journey and 'Til Tuesday (not so big on the hair bands like Poison since all their songs sound the same...Bon Jovi's pretty good though), grunge - Nirvana, not Pearl Jam...*shudders* pop - Michelle Branch, etc. ska - No Doubt, Cherry Poppin' Daddies hard rock like Metallica rock/rap mixes like Linkin Park easy listening like Coldplay and Norah Jones punk rock like Blink 182, Green Day and yes, I will even listen to country music. However I WILL NOT listen to pure rap, or that stupid whiny new brand of R & B they've come out with...where the "lead" singer just blends in with the background singers and repeats a rather short melody. That music ticks me off, mainly because it's boring and annoying. 1st dan & Asst. Instructor TKD 2000-2003No matter the tune...if you can rock it, rock it hard.
IAMA_chick Posted April 13, 2003 Posted April 13, 2003 RAP! it pumps be up before sparring. i also like hip-hop, country, and some of the classic oldies (downtown, joy to the world...) it's all good. Tae Kwon Do15-years oldpurple--belt
GhOsCeLL Posted April 14, 2003 Posted April 14, 2003 I agree it does get boring listening to the same stuff. umm... I like Rap, Hip-Hop, Rock, Heavy Metal... Oh yeah and it also depends on my mood. "Osu!"
Martial_Artist Posted April 14, 2003 Posted April 14, 2003 I listen to movie soundtracks (Last of the Mohicans, CTHD, Lord of the Rings) I also listen to ENYA. I enjoy instrumentals and orchestral w/ chorals. I listen to spanish Shakira(I don't like her english lyrics). I also like good contemporary music. I'm a ridiculous romantic and listen to love songs like a mad rabbit. I also listen to OPM. And classical. And Hawaiian, and native american, and Chage&Aska. MA.

omnifinite Posted April 14, 2003 Posted April 14, 2003 I actually don't really listen to music very often. And when I tell people that they look at me like I've committed some kind of crime against nature. I don't even know what the catagories would be for the rare things I do listen to. It's just very hard to find anything that hasn't been done a thousand times before. It all becomes a bunch of noise. I actually prefer music without words... it can be what it is and mean whatever it feels like meaning without anyone telling me what the message is supposed to be (usually a trite message at that). Reading that again it sounds a little snobbish, but really I wish music moved me more often... I could use all the inspiration I can get. *shrug* Glad to hear I'm not the only Enya fan though . 1st Dan HapkidoColored belts in Kempo and Jujitsu
karate_woman Posted April 15, 2003 Posted April 15, 2003 I listen to a variety of music. I've got a lot of music in the house. My fav happens to be Pink Floyd (Roger Waters era), but I've got quite a mix....Shaggy, ACDC, Metallica, Shania Twain, Randy Travis, Staind, Rush, John Lee Hooker, Bob Marley...you get the idea My least favourite would be old country.
