Great classical selections, HJ. I listen to those when I am creating. When I'm driving, I have to have something like Rebel Yell or Flirtin' With Disaster, rupturing the speakers and my ear drums. It's either that, or road rage. Autopsychotherapy is what I call it. Great stuff! :D

[Frighteners Entertainment]

Well, I guess my Celtic stuff would probably hurt your ears? lol

[Sinister]

LOL! When I hear Celtic music, I get this clear image of a height impaired leprechaun running madly about screaming, "THEY'RE AFTER ME LUCKY CHARMS!" :D

[Frighteners Entertainment]

Not much I can say about that, too damb funny Sin!!!

[grapegrl]

Hmmm...it's been a while since I've actually driven myself anywhere now that I have my trusty manservant :p , but here are a few artists/CDs that used to get me revved up:

Gladiator soundtrack (including and especially the additional disc containing more music inspired by the movie)
Rob Zombie - Hellbilly Deluxe
Queen - Classic Queen I and II
Metallica - a special mix of my favourites
Nightwish - Once

FE, you're not alone...I also love Celtic music, both traditional and modern. I listen to it a lot around the house.

[Frighteners Entertainment]

What is celtic music?

Really? or are you picking on me?

[TearyThunder]

I am pretty eclectic with my choice of music. It all depends on my mood.

[Sinister]

Well, throw some jams on us. What do you like listening to should the mood strike?

[Frighteners Entertainment]

I'm a little hesitant myself...all you rockers are kinda scary!!!

Well,kinda scary....

Most of that stuff is old school and i just don't do the "old thing" much anymore.

[Sinister]

We definitely have a lot in common musically, hon. I love a lot of what you listed.

And what is wrong with old school Mr. FE?

[Sinister]

You weren't foolin', Teary...your tastes are pretty ecclectic. :D

[Frighteners Entertainment]

And what is wrong with old school Mr. FE?

Just got bored with it...no other reason.

[heresjohnny]

Come on, I like plenty of weird stuff too. Flamenco guitar, the Anonymous 4 (haunting medival vocal ensemble http://www.anonymous4.com/), heck I even stopped and bought No Doubt's CD to rock out on Hella Good one night. I never will forget when I was shopping for my car system several years back and was carrying around Metallica's Black Album and Schubert's Unfinished Symphony to test the systems. Revel in your unique musical tastes I say. :finger:

[heresjohnny]

Just got bored with it...no other reason.

FE my favorite is old school rock, but I listened to some of the new rock and it really grew on me after a while. The kids still know how to rock these days.

[TearyThunder]

I did warn you Sin lol. I have just always been a big music listener.

[Hella]

see my musical taste is all over the place, in my collection (which is quite extensive) there is something from almost every genre of music out there, when I hear something that speaks to my soul and rhythm, I like it. I can't really say i prefer one genre of music over another cause I like so many different things..lol
thus why I my list of car jams changes on a frequent basis.
like today i was listening to
Nelly Furtado
Queen
Beborn Beton
B Movie
Black Eyed Peas
NIN
Scorpions
Sade
Madonna

[Sinister]

That's funny, because I like a lot of the bands you listed too. :D

I'm also a big advocater of 80's music, be it Rock, Metal, Pop...you name it.

There are some folks who can rock in this day and age, sure (John Mayer, Velvet Revolver, Type O Negative, Filter...and a few others, but that's about it) I think Manson had it right when he said that there's nothing going on worthwhile in music anymore. When you have bands like Creed, Kid Rock and Limp Bizkit around, it's hard not to agree with him.

[claymud]

Huey Lewis and the News
Bryan Adams
Our Lady Peace
Three Doors Down
Guess Who
Neil Young
Barenaked Ladies

Well, here ya go. Just a few CDs that I have and listen to faithfully. There are still a few that I haven't listed because I just can't remember at this time. Whatever the mood is for that day, that is the CD that is played.

[TearyThunder]

Da Wiener, you are as eclectic as I am and possibly more lol.

[trishaanne]

Most of the music I listen to in the car are compilation CD's that I've made but some of the artists include:

Earth, Wind and Fire
Clarence Carter (Strokin')
Black Eyed Peas
Madonna
Luther Vandross
alot of early 90's club/dance music

I like a lot of variety (no comment Vlad!!!!!) and I'll listen to just about everything except Rap, Jazz, Gospel or Opera, although I agree with DaWeiner that the Phantom of the Opera soundtrack has some great music on it.

[Da Weiner]

Da Wiener, you are as eclectic as I am and possibly more lol.

I know, I know - that's why it took me forever to think about making a list because I'm all over the place. I love all types of music and am even dabbling into some of the country music. Even though I love all kinds of music, I'm not a big fan of The Beatles, Led Zepplin, or Elvis. I like a few songs from each but that's about it.

[faerydreams]

Lets see......mmmmmmmmmm, I dont think that there is a type of music I dont like. I usually burn cd's with the songs I currently want to listen to. In the car I, my current cd has
Marilyn Manson
Chevelle
Korn
50 Cent
Gywn Stefani
Green Day
Ludacris
Tracy someboy (cant remember)
and some others

Currently the CD I listen to at work has
Perfect circle
Bach
beethoven
white strips
sting
willie nelson/johnny cash (ghost riders in the wind)
monster mash
purple people eater
michael jackson Thriller
marilyn manson

but currently my all time favorite bands are tool/perfect circle, korn, and much more.

[Sinister]

Something very funny about having Willie Nelson, the purple people eater song and Marilyn Manson on the same CD. :D

[faerydreams]

yeah, could it be my mmmmmmm halloween cd from my party last year????????

[TearyThunder]

Da Wiener, I have some of those where I like one or two songs also. Thank goodness for burners and dogpile or I would be screwed.

LOL Sin I have some burned CD's that are like that but I do *try* to keep the same genere to each one

[Da Weiner]

I hear that. My sister-in-law and I have compiled a few burned CDs that are themed (party music, halloween, dance) because I know pretty soon the CDs will be out and the MP3s will be taken their place. They are already moving in that direction.

[faerydreams]

OMG. I forgot to list some of the more important music I listen to in my car........I bellydance so when I have a big performance coming up I listen to the music in my car to help memorize the music and moves.............although I havent done it lately, being a recent divorcee, and now somewhat single mom, I have backed off to get readjusted to life.

[Da Weiner]

My sister-in-law and her friends did belly dancing. She lost 31 pounds doing it. I'm thinking about taking it up. Is it hard to learn?

[faerydreams]

It is actually harder than you think. There is different styles out there from egyptian, turkish, and American Tribal Style (and a few others) I do the ATS form of the dance. It is most definetly a great way to excercise, and the music is relaxing...............and it tends to boost one's self esteem. I would recommend it.

[HibLaGrande]

the ast road trip I went on comprised of...

Ray Stevens
Roger Miller
Dimu Borgir
The Beatles (lot's of em)
The Kingston Trio
Alice in Chains

Gwar
Nickelback

John Mellencamp
Cheap Trick

Got about 50 others, but that's all I can think of right now

[TipoDeemin]

KoRn
Deftones
Rob Zombie and/or White Zombie
Beck ("Guero" and "Guerolito")
