Listening To Music

HonestLife — Thu, 02 Sep 2021 01:31:33 GMT

I wasn't sure where to post this. Just wondering if anyone makes time to listen to music? As I've gotten older, I found myself having to make time to listen to music. I enjoy music and how it can change my mood. What is your favorite music genre? I can't wait until Christmas music starts!

I love music and try to listen to it as often as possible. I always have music on in the car to relax me. Music brings out so many emotions, memories. So many songs bring me back to my younger days , decades of music. I cannot pick a favorite song, group, singer, there are so many I love. I lean toward blues and Jazz but embrace classical, rock, pop. When stressed or anxious, I turn to my music for peace of mind and calm.

I usually only listen to music while driving in my car. I've had a subscription to Sirius Radio Channels for years. Now that I'm retired, I don't drive as much as I used to. I find that I only listen at home when the cable and internet are out.

I work at home 40+ hours per week. I listen to Amazon Music & Sirius Music (we bought a lifetime home subscription when they merged with XM)

I'm a 70s "girl" also love Christmas music all year long

I have music on all the time. I either have alexa, you tube, or CD's going. I love coffee house type music. I play Patty Griffin. The Wailing Jennie, Leona Lewis, Joshua Rankin, some Alison Krause and others.

Music is very important to me and the amazing streaming options really enrich my life. I’ve created many personalized stations on Pandora, including classical, classic rock, 60s, bluegrass, R&B, jazz, yoga/new age, renaissance and half a dozen Christmas stations. I have my gym playlist on Amazon music and listen to Sirius in the car. To have so much music at my fingertips is a gift I sometimes take for granted, so thanks for this thread 🙂.

I love Christmas music!

I listen to BTS & Hanson (I have tickets to an online Hanson concerts for both this Friday & Saturday nights.) mostly.

I love James Bay Chaos & The Calm cd, but I haven't liked his other music as much.

Ed Sheeran & Pink are both amazing.

I like John Mellencamp for background music if we have company.

Elle King is fun to listen to.

I listen to Pandora everyday, and have discovered so many genres of music there. It is rare that I do not listen to music at some point during the day.😊

~~~All we need is LOVE💖

Tonight I had a yen to hear George Michael's " Careless Whisper, " and I was sucked into music of the 80's. I forgot how much I loved that era, and I was singing along and had the best time. I was amazed how many songs I remembered.

I love listening to and singing along with 50's - some 80's music and also Christmas Music. We have Sirius in our car, Alexa in the house which I take out on my deck also and I play cds on my Bose. My husband cannot understand how I know the words to most of what I listen to. It all began with my red transistor radio listening to NY rock n roll stations when I was about 12 until today. My Mom used to say that she wished I learned my lessons as quickly as I could learn the new songs out.

Classical mostly--piano, guitar and symphonic. Some pop singers, jazz and older jazz singers, BB King, some country, a little old rock, etc.

I love music and I love to share what I love! I post a music video every day on my outfit thread. Music is the soundtrack to my life.

I enjoy red dirt, singer/songwriter, grunge, blues etc.

I love Sirius and I am discovering new artists every day that get no air time on commercial radio!

Enjoy

I play music all the time. I have a few streaming services. I usually listen to smooth jazz. While I am writing this I am listening to a new track from Kenny Garrett.

@Nuttmeg

I like Latin style jazz i.e Pat Methany.

Yes. I generally have my Tivoli One radio tuned in and on to classical, all day.

I love bluegrass. The other day during a thunderstorm I took my Bose speaker out to the front porch and harmonized along with a very favorite band (Seldom Scene). Many of the originals are gone but their recordings remain high on my list.

Then again, I love Jack White. I think he's genius. Chris Duarte, another. I enjoy jazz, in fact, I studied composition and improvisation and played multiple instruments.

Do love Christmas music! I may play some today.

I like to have it on when I am cooking in the kitchen or cleaning the house. DH puts on Pandora Deep Cuts for me. They play all the unusual songs from old albums. Generally Rolling Stones music, my favorite band of all time, I was so sad with Charlie Watts passing It's like the end of an era for me.

I love music and turn my Bose on first thing in the morning, turn it off last thing at night. I have an old car so don't have internet radio but use my CD player whenever I'm in the car. I used an iPod for years and have thousands of songs that I put on CDs through the years. It's fun to pull out those mixed CDs and listen to music I hadn't heard in a while. I keep my tablet on Pandora and change those stations depending on my mood or what I'm doing. I would be very unhappy without my music.

@Andreatoo That is a beautiful song. Heartbreaking & lovely.

@cookie16 - Oh, those NY rock stations were the best. I grew up with them and loved every minute. I spent a lot of time at Palisades Amusement Park in the summer and on the weekend they would have one of the DJs there - Cousin Brucie, etc.
