Allow me to quote Will Smith´s wife in Independence Day:

-Oh yeah great, now he tells me

[King Of Beasts]

It was the last poll option

[mirocu]

It was the last poll option

Yeah but to me that´s not excluding the possibilities of choosing multiple answers. I just thought it was there to cover genres you didn´t put in the poll

[King Of Beasts]

Next time I'll be more specific then lol

I went with Rock/Metal/Punk. Though I like other kinds too. I grew up in the 70's and our house was filled with a mix of Mowtown: The Temptations, Four Tops, Smokey Robinson, etc..., and what is now called Classic Rock: Fleetwood Mac, The Beatles, Peter Frampton, Bob Seger, and I guess Classic Soft Rock, like the Captain and Tennile, Beach Boys, Carly Simon, and the like.

So I have always liked rock. I like Punk too, Sex Pistols, The Clash, Joan Jett. The 80s New Wavish stuff like Blondie, Talking Heads, The Cure, The B52s, Thomas Dolby (She Blinded Me With Science!), and so on. Of course I loved the Hair Bands, and good old fashioned rockers like Van Halen and AC DC. Plus Alternative like R.E.M., Our Lady Peace, Jimmy Eat World, Foo Fighters, and so on. I like Metal if you mean bands like Black Sabbath, Ozzy, Judas Priest and Metallica, but the really hardcore Death Metal stuff does not do anything for me. Being a chick, I am a sucker for ballads of course, and naturally Sarah McLachlan is very high on my list of favorites (I don't think you can be a lesbian and not like Sarah M!)

I like other kinds of music too. I like movie scores, what I consider to be Modern Classical, since they tend to have full orchestras. I loved the soundtracks to the LOTR films, 13th Warrior, Gladiator, and so on. I love E.S. Posthumus, which is sort of movie like music (it is hard to describe).

Then there is what I suppose might be called New Age music like Alkaemy, Dead Can Dance, or Paul Scwhartz, and Kamelot, Lorenna McKennit, which I simply adore.

I am not much for Country or Rap, but there are a few of each I like. I like Faith Hill and Shania Twain. Being from the D, naturally I like Kid Rock (though he's more of a Redneck Rock Rap), and a little bit of Eminem.

Techno. Nothing beats Daft Punk.

[Vital]

Nothing beats Daft Punk.

Couldn't agree more!

I put other. I like songs from many styles of music, ranging from techno to punk, I never have one genre that I like more than others though. For me it depends on the song

[King Coin]

Techno. Nothing beats Daft Punk.

Their new album was pretty disappointing in my opinion.

I voted soundtracks because that's what I listen to the most, though I am a pretty big fan of electronica as well.

Well that escalated quickly

[Grits]

Most of my favorites are labeled Indie Rock or Alternative, whatever that’s supposed to mean these days. I guess they both fit under the first category.

[Acadian]

Voted other as my taste quite runs a gamut. I like some rock, country, what I guess some call new age, and bits and pieces of lots of stuff. I suppose my real weakness though is most anything that sounds like it could be more than a thousand years old (in ambiance, not necessarily technologically).

[ImperialSnob]

I like them all but I'm gonna go with Rap,because I knew no one else would vote for it.

[ghastley]

Voted other for the same reasons as Acadian.

While I was back in the UK over the holidays, I went to the last concert of Steeleye Span's tour in Salisbury, and Terry Pratchett joined them on-stage. Their style is folk/rock which wasn't one of the options, but I don't see trad jazz, or renaissance crumhorn quartets either, so other is the best match.

[Elisabeth Hollow]

I like a variety of music, from old school eighties (sorry y'all) to recent stuff. It really depends on what it is. I frequently listen to Queen and Lindsay Sterling un the same week, and All That Remains and John Tesh in the next. Then Black Label Society and Macklemore. There's a pattern there somewhere but I haven't pinpointed it. It makes me feel.

[Callidus Thorn]

I don't tend to like types of music, so much as songs or singers and such. As a result my mp3 player is a mess.

Seriously, I've got Jimi Hendrix, Taylor Swift, Paramore, Jay-Z, Aerosmith, Bluetones, a couple of Indie compilations, a few soundtracks, and more besides. According to the genre list I've got everything from alternative country to trip hop on there, and I don't even know what half of them are.

I realy need to sort that out, I don't even listen to hip hop or rap anymore

[Colonel Mustard]

I picked 'other' as my music tastes are all over the damn place. Though I guess I lean towards more experimental music, which kind of makes sense because I'm a hella pretentious guy.
