what is your favorite kinda music

I'm a metal head, but I like all kinds of stuff. Like Bob Dylan, Simon and Garfunkel, jazz, flamenco, and I love classical music--favorite composer is Beethoven.

Wow glad the "other" option is there.... YOu litterally forgot every good music genre... Allow me to now be pummbeled by how thats my opinion. It is :) and im just foolin around...

For me? My favorite? Guess which choice is mine...

Edit it didnt let me write in a choice...

So id say Funk, Psychadelic, Rock, Jam Rock.

With heavy notes to Classical, Jazz, Blues etc

Fusion. And when I say fusion I mean jazz fusion like Mahavishnu Orchestra, Al DiMeola, Return To Forever, Jean Luc Ponty. And progressive rock like Yes, Genesis, Happy the Man, Emerson Lake and Palmer, and newer prog metal like Symphony X, Dream Theater and so on.

Punk, Funk, Jazz, Rock, Alternative, All Metal except death or black metal, Country, Rap Rock, Rap Metal, Funk Rock, Funk Metal, grunge, Western, Classical, Classic Rock, Psychadelic, Nu-Metal, Blues, Industrial.

I'm probably forgetting 50 or so more genres. But these are the top I guess.

Jazz jazz and more jazz. From benny goodman to modern. Its all good.

'Bout everything 'cept rap.

The only country music i care for is johnny cash and willie nelson.

really???

@OP

as long as it's from the heart and it is real who cares what kind, style, or genre it is. Most of the reasons why I don't like all of the Pop acts is that, I find it not to be real.

That and Beethoven sucks, go Bach and modern classical woooooo *runs away chanting* :)

@ra--isn't that bob dylan. And that actually sounds folky to me. And i love folk.

i can't believe anybody would bad mouth beethoven. What about moonlight sonata 3rd movement? it's been posted in the epic instrumenals thread. In case you havent heard it.

Everything that sounds good.

no it's by Clarence White (I'm 90% can't find the album) and his first band Kentucky Colonels, he latter went on to the Byrds.

but it's country if you look around you'll get more country scores (that song is more bulegrass I'll admit [which is just a sub group of country any way]). But to me country isn't what is called Country today. I refuse to say that Garth Brooks or that achy brakey heart *** is anything but crappy Pop music with crappy country twang add on (if that is what you mean).

as for Beethoven that was mostly said in jest, as who am I you know. But I really don't like him nor most(90%) of Romantic music. To me I can't understand how someone could put this (down below) under Beethoven.

I'll add Ornstein too as he is one of my favorite composers for the piano. [not that I have the skill to play it :( ]

I like country: When I'm in the country!

I like jazz: Most of the time but especially when Im in New Orleans.

I like metal: When I'm playing it or listening to it.

I like rock: All the time!

I like hip-hop: When I dance.....which is never.

I like pop: if its old/retro

I like old school funk: All the time!

I can keep going but I'm gonna stop.

The Swing era swings.

@ RA---i guess i meant out of recent country.

And that leo classical stuff is really great.

Have you listened to Kris Kristofferson? I'd give him a try

I guess I'm mostly a singer/songwriter/folk guy, But i like almost everything, except rap and related genres

yes i dont care for him.

i like EVERYTHING expect top 40 ** (some of it is ok but most of it is bleh)

from reggae to death metal to music with nature sounds to jazz to classical to rap to dubstep to folk music of all differnt origins from all over the world (japanese and irish being my favourite) some music inside the genres i mentioned sometimes turn me off but just select songs.

middle eastern. traditional chineese

Im somewhat surprised that so few came with...or AM I only one that voted grunge? Neil Young, Alice in chains, Nirvana, Soundgarden, Peal Jam eh?... None?

Emp

Neil Young is grunge? O_o

You can consider Neil Young very early grunge, since almost every grunge bands are influenced by Neil Young. Ofcourse, there are much discussion is he or is he not, for some people, Neil Young is "godfather of grunge", but some do no underline it.

Anyway, as we know that "Genres" or names of types of music can be very wide consepts, so absolute truth is hard to find, but for me atleast and many others, Neil Young is very proto-grunge type stuff.
