Hip-Hop QOTW:

"Yeah, where I'ma start it at, look I'ma part of that
Downtown Philly where it's realer than a heart attack
It wasn't really that ill until the start of crack
Now it's a body caught every night on the Almanac"

"Game Theory"
The Roots

I like bands that really have differing music, from Black Sabbath to the Mamas and the Papas. I won't explain why, I'll just list my favs.:

The Beatles
The Mamas and the Papas
Queen
Ozzy/Black Sabbath
Jefferson Airplane/Starship
Nirvana
The Doors
KISS

Some bands I don't like as much, but are still OK to listen to: (yeah, most of the modern stuff...)

Weezer
Sublime
Blink 182
Jimmy Eat World

--------------------

SPEKKIO: "GRRR...That was most embarrassing!"

Linkin park!! it has the cool music feeling

I would have to say my favorite band would have to be one of the following: Linkin' Park, Sister Hazel, or the Blues Brothers Band (I know that they were only put together for a movie, but they're awesome).

"I found out what zombies are weak against......Point Blank Annihilation"- Black Mage, 8-bit Theatre

"You'd be paranoid too, if everyone was out to get you!"

My favorite bands are Audioslave and The Pillows. I guess that's all I have to say.

Man, I was excited until I reread and you said "the modern stuff". Did you mean the most recent albums for all bands, i.e Green/Maladroit, Take off your Pants/Enema of the State/Self-Titled and Bleed American? Because if so, then you were so close to having some of the best bands of all time. And your other choices don't make you out to be a fan of pop-punk...

Sublime - the greatest non-mainstream band to ever come along, in my opinion.

Ben Folds Five - another great non-mainstream band, that sadly is not together anymore. But Ben Folds is still out there making good music although it'll never be the same without Rob and Darren.

Dave Matthews Band - Is there any othere band that can do the things that this band can do? I don't think so. They have a song for every occasion, it's awesome.

Incubus - Just a great band, although I don't know if I like their latest album. They got a new bassist and I didn't think it was that big of a deal, but I actually noticed. ::::sigh:::: oh well.

Rage Against the Machine - I dreaded the day that Zach left the band, and it crushed me even more to see what they had become as Audioslave. It's just not the same.

That's about it, in that order are my favorite bands.

--------------------

Jeez, another signature...i can't do this anymore, just kill me already!

I don't really have a fav band I like all kinds of music,but I'm not really into the modern Britney music. But as for bands I listen to, there are a few....


Smashing Pumpkins
Floging Molly
Cold Play
Pink Floid
FleetWood Mac
Sublime
Weezer
Nickle Creek

Type O Negative, Fear Factory, Def Leppard, Black Sabbath, Sentenced, Crowbar, Paradise Lost, Amorphis, Goatsnake, old Moonspell, old Metallica, Sheavy

I like anything and everything that can produce good music. I don't pay attention to the people who sing the songs THAT much, though. I find songs with a good melody my cup o' tea. I don't really care about the lyrics THAT much either. The songs that I choose and like seem to gravitate towards the "old country" and the "yesterday's hits" genre. Some favourites include people like James, Ingram, the Beatles, Elvis Presley, among others.

Things I hate, however, include the following:
-ANY and ALL heavy metal "songs".
-Songs that have bad words all over the place.

Hohoho....Just find those songs absolutely unbearable!!!

The clouds ran away, opened up the sky
And one by one I watched every constellation die
And there I was frozen, standing in my backyard
Face to face, eye to eye, staring at the last star
I should've known, walked all the way home
To find that she wasn't here, I'm still all alone

"I don't need to be a global citizen,
'Cuz I'm blessed by nationality.
I'm member of a growing populace,
We enforce our popularity.
There are things that seem to pull us under and,
There are things that drag us down.
But there's a power and a vital presence,
It's lurking all around."

Bad Religion - "American Jesus"

Here's what I like listening to:

Adult contemporary:
Celine Dion <-- amazing voice
Josh Groban <-- just like Celine
Lee Ann Womack
Shania Twain <-- even though she's a country singer, a lot of her songs end up in adult contemporary radio stations.
LeAnn Rimes <-- same reason as w/ Shania Twain
pretty much any 80's/early 90's songs

Cpop (Chinese Pop):
Jay Chou
Wang Lee Hom
CoCo Lee <-- she's the one that sings the theme for Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon

Kpop (Korean Pop):
Group S
ShinHwa
BoA
SES

Jrock (Japanese Rock):
Do As Infinity
Utada Hikaru
Ayumi Hamasaki
Shitomi <-- I think that's her name. Her songs have a Latin flavor to it.

What do you guys like listening to?
