Almost all of you know that music is my life and my dealing mechanism in my life. When I am down I throw a CD on that I love and my stress melts away.

I love Paul Simon, and Brian Wilson and The Beach Boys. I love the sixties music. I listen all the time and I love to jam. My mother says at fifteen I learned what jamming was and I have never stopped since! Laughing

And she's right!

This weekend I bought my youngest son the Fray CD How To Save A Life which was also a song used in one of my TOP favorite shows Grey's Anatomy. I burned me a copy and we've both been listening this weekend. Jakie has inherited my love of music and listens ALL THE TIME!!!!!!

So who here loves music and what do you like to listen to?

Well, it's almost easier to list what I don't like, lol. I don't do Rap and I don't do heavy metal. A little bit of jazz and country is ok, depending.

I love big, powerful singers like Celine Dion, Josh Groban, Barbra Streisand, and several operatic singers. I got a bit burned out on 60's music, that's all the P would listen to, but still tap my toe or sing along with a few of them. Lets hear it for Paul Simon! Music of the 70's, 80's and 90's is great for the most part, especially the popular stuff I used to dance to and sing along. I like all kinds of classical. I like Celtic, Gregorian Chants, some types of folk music and lots of music from Africa and Polynesa. I like some, I'm not sure what it's called really...... digital music, if it's soothing.

That's not all, but that's enough Smile

HEY LEMON! Mr. Green

I loveeeeeeee to talk music!
Now you say that you like African music? Ever heard of Ladysmith Black Mambazo???/ They were on Paul's Graceland music! If you really like and/or Paul, watch this:

That is my absoloute favorite thing to watch on youtube! Graceland is my second favorite album of all time...... next to Pet Sounds by The Beach Boys!

I respect your love of classical music, but it's just not my cup of tea! I hate rap too, and my second son has decided this is his preferred type of music. Shocked

Oh ya! Graceland! LOVE IT! Had the tape, hope to get it back someday. Ladysmith Black Mambazo is great, they helped make Graceland what it was/is.

I forget the name of the movie with Whoopi Goldberg, but I had the soundtrack from that, too. It took place in Africa. Oh, Sarafina! (I had to go Google that one) Smile

I'll go listen to your link, thanks!

I like to turn my TV to a channel (51 here) that plays beautiful instrumentals only. The range is from everywhere to classical. It calms me so much.

I haven't cried for 16 years.

I expect I need a good cry. This music is the closest that brings me to a point of 'crying for beautiful/happy'--not sad--just for the beauty of it all.

I too am a music nut! I'm mostly rock & roll, my favourite periods being the late 60s to 70s and the grunge years: late 80s, early 90s. I also tinker in jazz and like metal, indie rock, hip-hop. I love to talk music!

I must try to avoid listening to so much angry music and concentrate on the "nice" stuff. I'm currently listening to Devendra Banhart, very calming! My other favourite "calm" music is Coldplay. I never thought I'd like Coldplay but I saw an interview on TV featuring Chris Martin and I liked him so I checked out his music. It contains some of the sweetest songwriting I've heard and brings out the "lovelier" side of me, the better side!

I LOVE most types of music. My husband brought back some music from Iraq that I just LOVE! My least favorite music is country music...I cannot stand twangy voices, nasal tones, or much of the content of the lyrics (singing about dead cows and and lost marriages, however I do like Garth Brookes)...I know, not all of it is that way, but I have to listen to that crap all day, everyday at work because my boss likes it...by the end of the day the songs are seared in my brain and I hear them in my sleep. When she gets distracted or leaves, I often turn it down or off just to give my brain a break! Usually, upon her realization it's off or down, she will turn it back on. It used to be on the other side of the building, which was much better for me cuz I didn't have to suffer!!!!

Anyway, my favorite genre is rock. My current favorite album is Chris Daughtry's new album. It is great!!! My second favorite album within this decade is Evanessence's "Fallen." My favorite all time artist is Elton John. My favorite band is Led Zeppelin...love the blues and rock mixture....cuz I love blues music! I also like some Rap...not gobs...like Tupac's Me Against the World and Chamillionaires Sound of Revenge. On the opposite side of the spectrum, I love classical music.

To add to this post, I also am a movie buff and like most genres...including musicals.

Well, that's it for now. Hope this post finds you doing well today!!!! Take care my friends and have a great day!

Thank you for that link to Youtube. I'm not a big fan of Paul Simon but I love the guys with him on stage. And I listened to the whole song...the words..very clever. It certainly beat my blues this morning.

Thank you for sharing. I will post in my favs. Very Happy

I posted this on the last forum- this song sums up my feelings for my ex P - he has made me stronger and if I know I can handle a P I can handle anything else life throws at me- nothing is worse than being with a P.
