Moved to off topic (from the spamzone)..


So, favourite bands. According to last.fm, my top 20 most listened to bands/artists are as follows:

Nightwish
Blind Guardian
Queens of the Stone Age
Pink Floyd
Ayreon
Black Mountain
Mike Oldfield
Bear McCreary
Led Zeppelin
Blue Öyster Cult
Iron Maiden
Howard Shore
Megadeth
Queensrÿche
Deep Purple
Epica
Muse
After Forever
Isis
The Gathering

This is only data from the last slightly-under-a-year, so it doesn't necessarily reflect my longer-term listening habits (you'd probably find Led Zep somewhat higher for example).

It's also not necessarily all that reflective of what I'm listening to at this very moment. I'd provide a list from the last week or so, but last.fm's currently not accepting scrobbles from Amarok, for reasons apparently unknown.
It would probably feature artists like these, however, in a very estimated order, some of which are there because I have new music from them and some of which are there because I've randomly listened to some:
Bear McCreary
David Gilmour
Nightwish
Blind Guardian
Cynic
Pelican
Cult of Luna
Our Lady Peace

This is ham!

I recently discovered the fierceness that is 90s Christian Reggae band: Christafari.

Coldplay
Bear McCreary
Kings of Leon
The Killers
The Fray
Razorlight
Queen
Snow Patrol
Green Day
Pendulum
Oasis
Kayne West (Guilty pleasure)

And a few other random artists of whom I like one song.

Ham?

Don't listen to any bands. Only Bollywood songs. Like them all a lot.

This may be hugely racist but on a similar tone, I like Jai Ho a lot. Very catchy.

I hate the Pussycat Doll version of that song

Don't even get me started.

Top Five:

Iron Maiden
Led Zeppelin
Metallica
Judas Priest
Black Sabbath

Order Not Reflective of Favor:
Ayreon
Blind Guardian
Deep Purple
Diamond Head
Dio
Disturbed
Dragonforce
Dream Theater
Jimi Hendrix
Megadeth
Monty Python
Motorhead
Ozzy Osbourne
Pink Floyd
The Rolling Stones

And a few artists with less than five songs I actually listen to are not included on this list.

You got to listen to Rahman's REAL music. Jai Ho is nothing compared to his other songs. Apparently, Rahman spent the least time working on the songs of Slumdog Millionaire. And he got an Oscar for them! His other songs are much, much better.

Er, how is it racist, Honorius?

Sometime's I'm like that. I think things are offensive when they're not, and vice versa.

Weird, but yeah I understand. Happens to me too sometimes.

I'm too lazy to list them, since I like about anything.
Nightwish wouldn't be as high on my list as it is on Sent's, however.
I prefer Lacuna Coil to NW.
If it can be described as Rock, I either like it or probably will.
Death Metal, eh. Has it's moments. A few.

Country - a handful of songs, and all from Cars.

Other - throw me a band and I'll listen.

Yeah,Rahman's other songs are better:)

Which songs of his do you like the best?

Anybody like Serj Tankian?
I do, very nice.
Quite a SOAD fan, too.

Correction:

It would be "Quite -an- SOAD fan, too."

When it comes to acronyms, it's the syllable that counts, not the letter.

Unless SOAD is not an acronym?
