I'v been thinking about this a lot lately...maybe the kinds of themes you find in your favorite music resonate with your chart?? if not the music itsself but maybe the nature of the music videos?What is your favorite music? and what are the strongest placements in your chart? my favorite genre is rock, just straight up hard rock and my favorite rock bands are shinedown and seether and my favorite metal band, and well absolute favorite of all time, tops my list everytime, is slipknot...some of my favorite songs of theirs is the heretic anthem, pulse of the maggots, and well plenty others... i like other music too...i guess you could call me eclectic, only there are a couple of genres i dont like...my secondary favorite type of music is Japanese music, lol, almost half of my music library is japanese (maybe a sight exaggeration, lol). as some know, my strongest planet (besides mercury) is pluto and i have a leo moon, so the kind of music that i like really cuts deep with me, the music either has a dark (or just not "pop" like) vibe to it or its the kind of music that comes from something that i genuinely love...and knowing me, i love passionately http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2OFNhVaIOTU&list=FLcqRjk24MGd4&playnext=1&feature=bfnav[/ URL] ( ^ i can sing this song without the aid of the lyrics, lol) [URL=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NR8OVA-iCrA]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NR8OVA-iCrA http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oCplArC4k0c http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hPC2Fp7IT7o http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DSzq2m_HgJA http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PR7sLCGs_jg http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Q3cGjOtCnA http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WbsDPbr8qoM http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L6ViM8tKG1Q http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gEgXDhiayz4 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oEIvlihb2Ms http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Ekd0LE1MXk http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n4h27uXqgyM http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RDN4awrpPQQ&feature=artistob&playnext=1&list=TLsWRI5wD Grmw http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LXEKuttVRIo&feature=artistob&playnext=1&list=TLSoLjyiF dG_o http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EaP5-eJLP8k ok, i think thats enough for now

Classical music appreciation:Let's start with timeless... Pachelbel - Canon in D Major http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6wpPk8qk3uQ (you've heard this one a thousand times, but listen to it closely, let yourself feel it, and you will feel yourself getting happier by the moment!) Beethoven - Sonata No. 14 (Moonlight Sonata) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vQVeaIHWWck (if you listen to this knowing he wrote it for a woman he couldn't have, you can really feel it) Johann Sebastian Bach - Toccata and Fugue in D Minor http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ipzR9bhei_o
(one of the awesomest pieces of all time, and I especially love this vid because the animation shows the complexity of the composition. Imagine yourself listening to it on a dark and stormy night!)

I wish I could learn to appreciate classical opera more. There are a few pieces that I like, but I feel like it's this wonderful genre that gets so much praise and I'm not there yet LOL. I feel like I'm missing something. This doesn't count operas like Phantom and Les Miserables LOL. I'm talking about the fancy stuff sung in Italian where I have no idea what they are talking about IP: Logged |

I like this timeless classical start. The explanation helps me. I got a vivid imagination so that helps me to understand the music.I feel like taking piano lessons again. IP: Logged |

You're welcome. I'm an amateur when it comes to classical but I feel those 3 pieces are really emotional and can get almost anybody to take a second listen. Canon in D is my secret (well not so secret anymore) cure for the blues. So easy to see why they play it at weddings IP: Logged |

Dolly wrote that hit song of that movie the bodygard "I will always love you".I also like the fun song 9 to 5. It gives me a uplift for work, just like coffee. And "You are "is also a beautiful love song. Talking about wedding songs. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dFf9Zf-92ds Starro, what is your sun sign? IP: Logged |

Ohhhhhh...I have to admit, I do like Dolly's version. You can tell she has someone in mind while singing it. It's so sad. It's much better than Whitney's technically perfect version. Yes, Whitney can sing. But her version has no heart compared to Dolly's. ------------------ "Everything I eat has been proved by some doctor or other to be a deadly poison, and everything I don't eat has been proved to be indispensable for life.

I liked what Dolly parton said about her husband.His first words to her when then met were:"Hey little lady be careful you don't get sun burnt." I like that. I don't know why have a memory for this kind of useless information. I wish i could remember telephone numbers or so. IP: Logged |

Scorpio17, I'm a Virgo. Incidentally, while looking for a good link for "Jolene", I stumbled across the random info that Hank Williams (a famous country singer) and I have the same birthday IP: Logged |

That's funny.Guess what Randall and Dolly also share the same birthday. Both caps with asc virgo. I wonder what Linda Goodman's favourite music was. I know in the book i've got about scorpio and relationships with the other signs that in the last pages of the book there's a list with sun signs of famous people. That list also contains the names of the classcial composers. That's why i know that Beethoven is a sag and Bach is an aries. Chopin is a pisces. And Leonard Berstein is a virgo just like you. He's made that fantastic musical The Westside Story. IP: Logged |

"Little lady" LOL. I have seen that quote too, and to think she married him! They met at a laundromat when she first came to Nashville, before she was ever "Dolly Parton." My...whatever he is (I don't dare call him my boyfriend yet but SOON...very soon) calls me "little mama" and all kinds of other cutsie nicknames. Normally I would cringe in embarassment but with him it makes me smile. IP: Logged |

I like a pretty wide swath of music. Not into overly aggressive music. Nor am I into country, though I do respect their musicianship. In a lyricist, I like intelligence, wit, soul, and in some cases humor (not all of the singers I listen to incorporate all of these). In music, I think it's great when people figure out new ways of doing things, or new sounds to use.I grew up in the 80's, so I like stuff from back then. I continued listening to foreign music even as the 90's dawned American Grunge. Most of the music I listen to is still created overseas. There are the occasional American bands that make a good impression. I'm also quite into instrumental music. There's quite a lot of good stuff. My electronic station on Pandora isn't focused on electronic dance music. It's just electronic music. I'm sure some of it can be danced to, but it's not rooted in techno. It's rooted in creativity.
