How Diverse is your musical taste? Just curious about the orgers. How diverse is your music taste? What artists do you regularly listen to, what genres etc? | |

I'll listen to pretty much anything from renaissance polyphony to Lady Gaga. The only thing I don't much care for is metal - of any variety. We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves. | |

It depends... I tend to like individual artists, who happen to fall within' a genre.
I don't consider myself a Metalhead---yet, Iron Maiden, King Diamond/Mercyful Fate, Megadeth, Death, Carcass and Metallica are some of my favorite bands.
I don't consider myself a country fan, yet I love Keith Urban, Carrie Underwood and Brad Paisley.
I don't consider myself a fan of AOR or Pop/Metal... but, I love Kansas, Journey, Dokken and Europe.
Truly not a fan of Christian or Gospel music, but love Crystal Lewis, Michael Tate and Mary Mary.
I'm not generally a fan of R&B solo artists who just stand up and sing and don't play instruments, yet I love Eric Benet, Shanice and Kelly Price.
My favorite artists span all sorts of genres.... classic 70's soul, 80's Pop, English New Wave, 60's British Invasion, Fusion, Progressive, Smooth Jazz, Acoustic singer-songwriter, Shred Guitar, Blues Rock...
The only thing that truly makes me turn off the radio is Mighty Clouds of Joy/Quartet style Southern Gospel. I can't name any Punk Rock or Indie Rock type bands that I like either. | |

It depends. There are certain artists that I completely dig, of any genre: the Stones, but also Depeche Mode, then Elvis, heavy metal, funk, motown, etc
I also own the best songs of many artists that have, for me, 5 or 6 truly good songs but that's all.
Jazz is probably the only genre that I don't care for. I completely support classic music and it's NOT overrated, but jazz??' wow, take me someplace else...  | |

i personally like rock/hard rock, funk, pop, r&b, disco. And some metal songs. I like a few Stevie Ray Vaughan songs and just bought a couple of albums, i want to see if i can get into blues.
I've never tried listening to jazz or classical but i'll try in the future. | |

R&B/Soul, Pop, Rock, Country, Jazz, Gospel, Hip-Hop, Classical, Folk. Really, the only genre I never liked is Reggae and that Dance Techno stuff irritates me. Otherwise, I grew up immersed in just about every musical genre. [Edited 5/15/11 8:30am] "It's not nice to fuck with K.B.! All you haters will see!" - Kitbradley

Yeah! I kinda agree with that statement... not word for word or artist for artist, but the general meaning! I don't care for genres... it's all music and as long as I like the songs, I don't care what genre it is! | |

HAHA after you name every genre under the sun. Funk, disco, sexy slow jams from the 1970s and early 1980s, house, blues, pop/rock, and for laughs....a little bit of country. Andy is a four letter word. | |

. metal is okay as long the artists actually sing and not that insane yelling bullshit 
I'm not going tgo sit here and claim my musical tastes are super-diverse, it'd be a lie. Sure, Ican probably name off at least one song in every genre that I like...but! There's only like two or three genres I listen to with any regularity. "I don't think you'd do well in captivity." - random person's comment to me the other day | |

The charts are not accurate how I rate them just pretty much what I’m listening to now and not everyone I like is on it yet. | |

I'm very particular about music (and most things). My range is not very broad or diverse. Right now, on any given day there is probably a 80% chance that I am listening to one of the following: Roy Hargrove, Robert Glasper, Gerald Clayton, Rahsaan Patterson, Mint Condition, Everything But the Girl, Naked Music I certainly like other artists (typically in the genres of contemporary jazz, adult r&b, and deep house) but I don't veer far.

Don't like most country and metal music. And most Jazz music, too pretenious for my liking. The rest really just depends on the song. | |

I listen to anything that sounds good to me. No matter the genre. | |

I like:
- Soul - Funk (if it's soulful)
so yes, my taste is very diverse Nostalgia just ain't what it used to be | |
| - E-mail - orgNote - Report post to moderator |
how is it possible that orgers like nearly every kinda music out there in 1001 different genres, but on the other hand most orgers will agree that practically everything you hear on the radio and the charts is rubbish?
inquiring minds want to know Nostalgia just ain't what it used to be | |
