    Hello, All.

    My taste in music is varied. I like a little of pretty much any style you
    can think of. I couldn't tell you why. Maybe it's because my dad and his family are all musical. You can pretty much put any musical instrument in my dad's hands and he can play it. At least I haven't seen him not be able to.

    In any case, what's some of your favorite music?

    Some I like, some I really don't.

    For likes: 80's, new wave, synthpop, some alternate, classic rock, oldies,
    some classical, new age, ambiant, industrial.

    Dislikes: Jazz, hip-hop, most female based soul that has all that ooOOOooooohhhoohhhoo stuff in it, rap. death metal.


    For favorite bands, Dire Straits, Genesis, R.E.M., Jean Michel Jarre, Deacon Blue would be on the top 5 list.

    That's normal. In my case, I have really found a genre of music that I don't like, but certainly particular groups or artists.

    For likes: 80's, new wave, synthpop, some alternate, classic rock, oldies, some classical, new age, ambiant, industrial.

    There was a point when I couldn't listen to new wave for a while, but I think that's probably because a guy in the barracks blasted new wave in his room all weekend every weekend.

    Dislikes: Jazz, hip-hop, most female based soul that has all that ooOOOooooohhhoohhhoo stuff in it, rap. death metal. For favorite

    I'm not familiar with Deacon Blue, at least not enough to recognize the name.

    I mentioned Nightwish some time back. Was it from that?

    Everybody does! ;)

    At least I haven't heard from a single person who didn't like them.

    Here's a good introduction:

    Don't think so. I'm just connected to this area since about yesterday... Or was it somewhere else?

    I wasn't using MUSIC either for a while either. I don't think
    it was backboned since it had expired a while back. But I
    think it may have been in another net.

    If I remember correctly I discovered Nightwish about a year ago in 2019.

    I believe that's the one I listened to.

    Lately, I've been listening to more eclectic types like 2Cellos and Steve'N'Seagulls.

    I'm not familiar with Deacon Blue, at least not enough to recognize the name.

    Popular in the 80's. Real Gone Kid, Dignity were their big hits. If you have a streaming service check out the "Singles" compilation. I'll be a good intro. --- SBBSecho 3.11-Linux

    Okey Dokey.

    Nightwish was an eye-opener discovery for me, also last year
    sometime. The rest of the that quoted message listed other
    ones that were along the same lines in my journey:
