Yes just look at those charts most of those songs are sung by women.
And if they are men, chances are they will sing like women as well...

Another good example is Lady Gaga; the only thing she does is wearing strange outfits and shows her body.
Witch does look ugly after all

I thought this was about music you liked, not a bitchfest about music you hated.

For instance, one of my favourites is Stevie Ray Vaughan.

My favourite bands are Biffy Clyro and The Kooks. Mew are worth a mention too.

Though I like most types of music (with the exception of rap), I tend to prefer Alt/Indie rock stuff.

I'm... a little obsessive about music. Not bands or singers or the business of music, but just music, though I do have a couple favorite bands/singers who seem never to let me down for consistency of quality. Nothing recent, though.

[Doctorbatman]

I enjoy the sounds of the mountain goats. I'll post one of their best songs in my opinion


You might also enjoy this one; You or Your Memory


You wanna just listen to the music in that one and watch the video less.
It's only ok, in my opinion.

2 - Fall Out Boy/Patrick Stump
3 - Jellyfish
4 - Sara Bareilles
5 - Panic! at the Disco

*sigh* I'm old... except for the movie guys, the only names from that list I recognized were Sara Bareilles and Fall Out Boy. And I only recognize the 2nd because my niece has one of their posters on her wall.

Well in all honesty Cho, Mae is kind of under-the-radar, and Jellyfish is a band from back in the early 90's so... yeah. I find Jellyfish to be one of the most lyrically clever bands I've listened to, so they have a special place in my heart. As for Mae, they've just touched me with their music unlike any other artist/group I've listened to.

[Cho]

Well, let's see... I listen to, like most people, a lot of different stuff. I listen to metal, rock, and country mostly. With a smattering of pop, celtic, taiko drums, punk tossed in there as well. But I do hate opera, and jazz with vocals though.

My current favorite band is Volbeat - if you hear one of their songs on the shindig, it's probably my request. My favorite band of all time though is Rush. Besides those two, I don't know if I could really rank the bands that I like, as it all depends on what I feel like listening to.

But some favorite bands, by genre:

Celtic - Celtic Storm, Donal Lunny
Country - Lady Antebellum, Sugarland, Toby Keith, Big & Rich
Pop: Lady Gaga, Katy Perry
Rock: AC/DC, Bon Jovi, Van Halen
Metal: Metallica

Oddballs: Kodo (taiko drums), Trans Siberian Orchestra, Hoodoo Gurus

[EricSmarties]

Wow i really like Volbeat theyre ok actually but a bit heavy though :\ thanks cho:)

[Cho]

Well, I'm not sure what track you listened to... but their sound carries over a pretty wide range.

You might try, Garden's Tale, for a 'softer' metal.
Heaven Nor Hell is more rock sounding
Sad Man's Tongue is rockabilly - well, at the start... then it, well... listen for yourself...

[DuplicateValue]

Pop: Lady Gaga

The Fame Monster is actually a pretty great album. Speechless and Monster are probably my favourites.

You gotta love the Gaga.

@Metalfreak... wait a minute, you're 'Metalfreak' and you think Volbeat is a bit heavy?!
