I often listen to music sung/written by the Grateful Dead, Allman Brothers, and Enya. I also love to listen to just about anything from the 50's, 60's, and 70's. Enya's music is so calming to listen to while I am drawing or painting. I also listen to her music while I'm on the computer.
Run DMC, the fall, david bowie, billie holliday, mozart, many others.
I like Mozart, Vivaldi. It is difficult to just pick a few. I like some rock bands but nothing very current since I do not listen to the radio or watch MTV. I somewhat dislike watching music videos since I prefer my own visual images to songs. Most music videos are not very good anyway.
My husband will load up songs on my MP3 player and I just walk or go on a swing for about one hour, sometimes three times daily. I have lost about 12 lbs so far.
I like mostly all kinds of music, especially alternative rock. "89x the new rock alternative.." thats the station i listen to.
I have to say my favorites are All American Rejects, Gorillaz, Evanesence, Billy Talent, The killers, Billy Joel.
The theme song for my life is Simple Plan's Untitled.
And my favorite song of all time is the Red Wing Song... and yes they actually have a song.
My favorite band is definatly Pink Floyd. The Dark Side of the Moon is quite possibly the best single thing made by human beings.
Brian Eno is my favourite.
Right now my favorite band is the Japanese stoner rock band Boris.
Rammstein, Marilyn Manson, Laibach, Mortiis, In flames rendition of Everything Counts.. lol
Ian

I think that's enough!
From 1980, I gre up in the punk scene, so that style of music is quite prominent in my musical tastes which are quite eclectic as well as quite obscure. Currently one of my favorite bands is Boris, from Tokyo, Japan. They are quite prolific with their collaborations with other artists, however one of their styles that I most like is heavy guitar driven rock not unlike a sped up version early Black Sabbath, or a stylistic corss between early Black Sabbath and early Motorhead. Their guitarist is a very dimunitive girl playing a Gibson Les Paul through a stacked Orange amp that appears to be a full third larger than she is.
Used to worship Led Zeppelin (in my youth) and was madly in love with Jimmy Page.
My all time favourite now, is Neil Young.
