OK I can listen to anything except the hardcore Metal stuff.
I love Mark Knofler (Dire Straits), Annie Lennox, Guns'n'Roses, Def Leppard, Poison (all the late 80's rock bands). Then on the other side I love the music from musials Cats, Les Mis, the Phantom etc.
I was a puree feeder, forward facing, cot sleeping, pram pushing kind of Mum... and my kids survived!
At the moment it is Mika. Then there is Bryan Adams, Robbie Williams, The Beatles, Savage Garden, Metellica (sp?), Coldplay, Tatu, Baby Face, Cat Stevens, Ronan Keating, Garth Brooks, Hoobastack, and UB40.
It is interesting to see what other people enjoy, as some of it is old, and brings back memories!!!!
Tool, Ramones, Sex Pistols, System of a down, Deftones, The Doors, Metallica, Killswitch Engage, Iron Maiden, Queen, The Vines, Sublime, Incubus, Placebo, AFI, Aerosmith, A Perfect Circle, Coal Chamber, Disturbed, Greenday, Garbage, Nirvana, The Datsuns, The Bleeders, The Killers, Rage against the machine, Jimmy eat world, Pink Floyd, Weezer, Static X, The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus, 30 Seconds to Mars, Johnny Cash, Mika, Paramore

I also like and have their cds: Seether, Perfect Circle, Foo Fighters, Killers, My Chemical Romance, Evanescence, Greenday, Fiona Apple, Maxwell, Pearl Jam, Stone Temple Pilots, OP Shop, Santana.
I really like Pink's new cd/dvd too, so I'd say that's my "girlie" music.
I love music too, we've always got the stereo on, and/or I've got music playing through the computer while I'm on it or in the kitchen cooking dinner.

Hit me with music!!
Hey i even love the wiggles!!
I listen to Fall Out Boy in the car. it's my secret emo music! I love nirvana, fat freddys, bob, amy winehouse, Pearl Jam, Gwen, No doubt, Pink, crowded house, black eyed peas, chemical brothers, sublime, the killers, radiohead (best concert EVA), Ben harper, beyonce "crazy in love" - best song ever, john legend, green day, kanye west, gorillaz, am loving Lily allen at the mo, massive attack, white stripes,
hate with a passion - pussycat dolls (saw them being dumb in an airport once), whitney, celine, Jessica simpson,
I like all types of music including hardcore metal not so much of a fan of dance music though apart from drum and bass.
As for favourite bands were do I start the list would go one forever. But here goes.
Pink Floyd, Led Zep, Jethro Tull, Bob marley, Cat stevens, Loius Armstrong, The doors, John Lennon, Johnny Cash, Black Sabbath thats a bit of the old stuff I can think of.
Newer stuff would be Fear Factory, Lamb of God, Zyklon, Dog Fashion Disco, Pantera, Metallica, Dr Dre and co, Tupac, Bone thugs, Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Stone Temple Pilots, Soundgarden, Offspring, Korn, Missy Elliot and Annie De Franco.
Sorry for spelling mistakes I'm sure there's more but that's all I can think of for know.
I love my rock, U2, smashing pumpkins, PEARL JAM, foo fighters, NIRVANA, coldplay, the exponents, the chilis, metallica, disturbed (David, the lead singer is my free pass!), korn, radiohead, linkin park
The only stuff I don't like is rap. IMHO its so offensive and they can't even use proper english (like one recent song 'can I buy you a drank' or something like that) and a song about a girl's lipgloss? Honestly
Hehe, my DH is in to harder rock than me but we've toned down a lot since getting engaged and married.
I'm pretty eclectic, my CD collection ranges all the way from Elvis Presley to Tupac, Guns N Roses to Kenny Rogers.
Tupac is my second biggest influence as a writer after Maya Angelou, I'm not neccessarily a rap fan, I just like the social context of his stuff. Most of the newer hip hop doesn't impress me and I agree with Emz, that Lipgloss song is just fecking stupid.
My brother runs a punk/metal record label in Sydney and I do his PR so get quite a few promo CD's sent over, most of his artists are Canadian and they have some pretty cool stuff in the vein of Green Day and Fallout Boy. I really like Green Day.
Also a big fan of '80s rock like GnR and Metallica, and early 90's grunge like Nirvana and Smashing Pumpkins, and I guess Green Day comes into that category as well.
And I like the music I grew up with, stuff like Elvis, and the Eagles, and Harry Chapin, and Cliff Richard, Elton John, Billy Joel....
The only things my Dad listens to that I really never learnt to appreciate are the crooners (Frank Sinatra ) and the Shadows (I don't get music without lyrics?)

I really love Kiwi dub sounds of Black Seeds and Salmonella dub.

I'm totally in love with my fav radio station "George FM" I was a bit of a clubber back in the day when I had a disposable income, was childless and nice clothes still fit
So I'm a bit of a D&B girl, happy house and Salmonella Dub etc, anything to get your groove on to . DH calls it "doof doof" It's only when the music topic comes up that I'm very aware of the 7 year age gap between me and DH. His fav band is ACDC
salmonella dub!!! I saw them live at the stomach and everyone was....extremly hungry and drug arm came and gave us free hotdogs and tomato soup....good times, good times.
