Classical, Jazz, Bluegrass, Rock, Folk, Country, Blues, whatever. As long as it's well done. What I listen to mostly is Rock, Classical, and Jazz. Edit For lifting weights there is nothing better than Heavy Metal.

My main go-to music is some rock and alternative bands. Though I can safely say I despise modern day pop music. It's completely void of morality and takes no skill to compose. Really it's just there to hook people on the corrupt music industry.

I like rock and classic rock, plus some songs from various other genres. I agree with Rat Man, pretty much all well-done music is good. Also, like Yfir, I don't like much of the new music, as much of it is not well-done.

Some of the bands I usually listen to are The Beatles, Toto, Queen, The Cure, Styx, Matchbox Twenty, Kansas, Elton John, John Mellencamp/Cougar, Supertramp, The Who, America, Journey, etc.

Once, Toivo and Eino were building a house, but as Toivo worked, he would occasionally throw a nail over his shoulder. When Eino asked why he was being so wasteful, he said, “The heads are on the wrong side!” Eino looked at him and said, “You dummy, those are for the other side of the house!”

It was a great time to be young and going to concerts. There were acts like the Beatles, The Doors, Janis Joplin, Hendrix, Led Zep, Rolling Stones, Pink Floyd, etc. And there was Woodstock. A lot of it was new, ground breaking stuff.

That is one strong album from start to finish. Neither Steppenwolf or The Guess Who is in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. I find this astonishing.

Posts: 2764 PA, USA	Re: Music Reply #7 - Jun 20^th, 2023 at 9:27pm I usually turn on classic rock if I want music on while I'm doing something. I also like classical and other orchestral stuff. I like celtic music a lot, whether it be folk, rock, etc. In general I'll listen to pretty much anything other than rap or hip hop. I just never like that kind of stuff.

If you'll notice the rest of the orchestra has sheet music. She always plays these long, intricate, complicated pieces off the top of her head. She has many YouTube vids. They are all amazing. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rEGOihjqO9w

Classic Rock, Rock, New Wave from the 80s. I suppose its old af wave now. Classical music is wonderful. Rachmaninoffs piano concerto #2 being a favorite. Also Vivaldis 4 seasons and Tchaikovsky's Nut Cracker.The 3rd movement of Moonlight Sonata and many others.

I refuse to get into rap and most modern music. My goodness modern music is an absolute sh*t show. No offense to all of you now that Ive just been incredibly offensive. Its just not for me.
