I love modern indie pop.
Modern mainstream pop/rock/top 40, hardly at all. Maybe about 4% of it is listenable to me.
I love any era; whichever I'm in the mood for on any given day. My Pandora profile has stations from the '50s, '60s, '70s, '80s, '90s, '00s, classical, ragtime piano, orchestral, electronic dance, etc.
Least favorites: modern country, but some of the more classic stuff is tolerable. I even like some of it.
Hip hop does nothing for me. Screaming metal, no.
What is one song that you really like, and who sings it?

Summer has been going for 6 months strong and it refuses to leave. I love summer, but past mid-July, I'm over it. I really hate our summers. So ready for nicer weather.
To answer the question, no.
Just for Fun: Check up time! When was the last time you saw a:
dentist?A while.
optometrist/ophthalmoligist?I don't think I've ever been to an actual optometrist office. I've had to do vision tests for various things.
general practitioner?Oh my gosh, I haven't been in forever, nor will I go unless I'm falling apart.
other?

It's that time again! Put your thinking caps on, (baseball cap here) and think about these questions...
Today's Question(s): Are you a fan of music? Music is running through my head almost always.
If so, do you like modern music, more of the kind of music that was popular when you were younger, or something else?
Except for country, modern mainstream music shut down for me sometime in the 90s. Too many mass-marketed "bands" and
not enough real deal musicians getting into the pop charts.
What is one song that you really like, and who sings it? One of many.
Bonus Question(s): Have you noticed the changing of the season yet? A little.
Or are the changes more subtle, or virtually nonexistent where you live? The oak trees have already started dropping acorns. Not much else.
If the changes are small, have you noticed the changing amount of daylight? Sunrise is coming a little later every morning.

I like all kinds and can even listen to rap if it's clever. What is one song that you really like, and who sings it? I have a new Lisa Hannigan CD and there's one song, "Prayer for the Dying", that is incredibly moving.

Are you a fan of music? If so, do you like modern music, more of the kind of music that was popular when you were younger, or something else? What is one song that you really like, and who sings it? If by modern you mean rock, pop and country music of the last few years, yes, much of it. I also like some older rock and pop and some older country as well as some western, some blue grass, some Cajun, some American and foreign pop, country and folk and some classical. . . (Did I leave anything out?) In general, if the notes and the rhythm can be discerned by my aging ears, I'll probably listen to it.
However, these days I find myself paying more attention to music geared to the rural life I grew up in and have selected to return to. There are too many songs I could call favorites but here's one that came to mind as I wrote this reply:

Depends on my mood at the time, I like all kinds of music except country (can't stomach the lyrics
I do prefer classical music for relaxation and contemplating. I also like total silence.
When I was younger there was The 80's - the greatest music ever!
Last 10 years or so, I am fond of Adele.
