There are all types of music styles.
But, which do you gravitate to the most?
Post your comments, if you like, regarding your favorite groups/singer.
What makes that group/singer stand out for you?
I am a fan of mostly old time Rock and Roll. People look at me like I'm crazy when I say I calm down after a busy day at work by listening to AC/DC or Pink Floyd on the way home.
I am not a huge fan of Country music, particularly the new Country. I do like the older like Charlie Daniels, David Allen Coe, Johnny Cash, but none of the newer stuff. As for ©rap.....:puke:
My cd collection (over 300) is extremely diverse. I have some from the newer groups, but can't say I'm too impressed with a lot of the new female vocalists. They all sound too much alike and use to much synthesizers. Very few really have the quality voice like Madonna or the Wilson sisters (Heart), Stevie Nicks..... It just doesn't seem like the newer groups have the raw talent of the older ones. Look at the staying power of Aerosmith.
I also agree with the comment about American Idol. Just not impressed with any of them as a whole.
Isn't it funny how we seem to be divided along generational lines only when it comes to rap and heavy metal??
Those two genres are the only ones I personally can NOT stand, and I see a lot of my age-mates here saying the same thing. On the other hand, the generations have more in common than not when it comes to music........most of us like a wide variety, and it seems we're even willing to dabble in music that's not of our ethnic or age identity. Which is pretty cool when you think about it. :)
I didn't vote in the poll, because it's impossible to say what I listen to "most." I'm equally likely to be listening to Sheryl Crow, REM, classical piano, or Gladys Knight & the Pips -- just depends on the mood.
I suppose I am an 80s kid though -- whatever happend to OMD or Spandau Ballet??!
