    I am very similar to most girls here with a huge range of music I like. SOAD like Juliann to Eagles, Wolfmother to Comodores, Marvin Gaye and even some Rap, Hilltop Hoods, Scribe (good Kiwiw boy!!) and even Eminem when I am in the mood, also dont mind some dance and techno, Chemical Brothers etc. I agree with the mood thing but I dont listen to music for the effect it will have on me, I listen to it for the mood I am in when I choose it. And if you want a real cruisey sex/sleep cd try a Victorian guy called Lindsay Buckland. (all instumental) The cd we got is called Eclipse of the Common Sense and we love it. We saw him busking in the Mall in Adealide and got one of his cds and it is fantastic to relax and/or get of too!!
    We are also like Nikki in that we always have music on and not the mindless TV with all its garbage and doom!!!!

    I have a wide range of tastes, so I’ll listen and enjoy just about anything, usually though it is what is playing on the radio or the tv music channels at the time, but some of my home made compilations, will have anything from classical, pop to rock and rap. the only music I am not keen on is some death-metal and some grunge, it also depends on how I feel.

    Some bands, sings, musicians I like are : Pink, Garbage, Bon Jovie, Kylie, Madonna, Red Hot Chile Peppers, the Kinks, the Sex pistols, The Jam, Spiderbait, Slim Dusty, John Williamson, Kenny Rodges, Dolly Parton, Tone-Loc, Poison, Bananarama, The Bangles, Kate Bush, Cyndi Laupa, Beastie Boys, The Foo Fighters, Gorillaz, Deft Punk, Scissor Sisters, Aerosmith, Bach, Chopin, Mozart, Debussy, Roy Orbison, and A lot more but you get the general Idea. 😉

    I too like a fairly wide range, but gravitate more to older “metal” bands like : Uriah Heap, Deep Purple, Black Sabbath (Ozzy days only), AC/DC, Bachman Turner Overdrive, Budgie, Led Zepplin, Rainbow, Nazareth, Metallica, etc. Also liked some of Suzi Quattro.

    Also like some of my teenagers music like Nickelback…….

    I certainly don’t like that mor modern “death Metal” stuff – horrible lyrics.

    Probably not too PC here – but I like the older metal stuff anyway……

    I ama fan of older bands like Status Quo, Slade Led Zepellin Sex Pistols The Clash Ian Drury Joe Cocker etc. Yet I find that when dressed I like to listen to softer music such as Harry Connick or Chris Isaak. Why I don’t know. It just deosn’t seem right to listen to my normal stuff. Anybody else feel the same?

    Audio book? No, books are for reading not listening to. :) I love to get absorbed in a good book but I don’t think I could ever listen to one. But hey, that’s only my opinion… to each their own.

    Nikki, I too love to hold the dead tree technology, however, it interferes with the act of driving a motor vehicle or operating a hand plane and they tend to get soggy when in the shower or washing the dishes. Sad but true. And so, at the moment, I have Dean Koontz in the CD player in the car, Terry Pratchett on the CD player that migrates around the house and out into my shed, Stephen King awaiting to be ripped for my mp3 player (for listening while at work) and John Grisham sitting in paper format beside my arm chair (where I will be with a mug of espresso in about 5 minutes time :D ).

    Reading is time consuming indeed, I have a few audio books but they’re not novels mostly documentaries, comedy and biography style readings.

    I like all types of music frm the 60s to current music except for the head banging variety. I do mostly listen to the popular 60s 70s and 80s music though. For a period of 7 years I was unable to play my Lps as the stylis was bad and I didnt know where to buy one and just last month I found a place on ebay and now I can play all my old music again.

    What a great topic. Not at all strange Brenda. Music is my life apart from living, my wife, my kids, reading, dressing, enjoying goood wine and food,
    (the aquaduct). I have quite a few c.d.’s 400 – 500 at last count they range from rock ‘n ‘roll through classical, opera, blues, jazz. I think the ony music I’m not keen on is rap and ‘yee haw’ country, not forgetting mind that KD Lang and The Eagles were country at some time.
    My children’s bands are a big influence on me also, apart from what they played on their cassette players, (remember those??) I even enjoyed some, not all, Death Metal!!!
    I used to do volunteer work for a bublic radio station many years ago and whenever somone couldn’t make their spot I would fill in, it became a running joke among the presenters that no matter what the mucical subject was I could fill in for them.
    Music is the food of life.

    Hi, sorry for butting in again! Good point Lori, I always have music on like you and Niki, and hate the idea of coming home and putting the tele on for the sake of it, so much crap on the box anyway. (If I see another game show I’ll scream!!!) Also, it would never occur to me to select anything to put me in a mood. I just throw on whatever I fancy, depending on the mood I’m already in. .
