S or D's favorite singer or band that you now like

<p>S-2 just discovered Louis Armstrong and Buffy Sainte Marie; is trying to pawn them back to me (an easy sell).</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>Mine too. AC/DC, Rush, Pink Floyd, The Who. He’s amazed when I know the songs - DUH!</p>

<p>Missypie from page one of the thread: Lunch Tray :slight_smile:
Love it! (particularly since I have no idea who Green Day or Cold Play are)</p>

<p>One more vote for Coldplay !</p>

<p>Matisyahu!</p>

<p>He’s an American Hasidic Jewish reggae musician, known for blending traditional Jewish themes with Reggae, rock and hip hop sounds.</p>

<p>Not my kind of music, really, but my daughter listens to it all the time while doing homework; it finally just kind of grew on me :)</p>

<p>I don’t " get "Coldplay.</p>

<p>While I will get enthusastic about other musicians I see, and while I would love for either D to share my interest, any new music really just takes time away from my Pearl Jam love- and I don’t want to be unfaithful.
;)</p>

<p>From D1:
Michael Buble
Taylor Swift</p>

<p>From niece:
Russell Crowe & The Ordinary Fear of God (who knew he could sing, too?!? “Testify” is my favorite - - esp. the music video :D)
Less Than Jake</p>

<p>From DS to me: Arcade Fire, Black Moth Super Rainbow, Audioslave, Sigur Ros</p>

<p>From me to DS: Beatles, The Who, CocoRosie, Fatboy Slim, Wilco, many more; DS appreciates “good music” in every genre except country and folk</p>

<p>My son doesn’t listen to music much, so when he raved about the Bloodhound Gang, I had to listen. I find them highly entertaining.</p>

<p>You and me baby ain’t nothin’ but mammals
So let’s do it like they do on the Discovery Channel
</p>

<p>Ha!</p>

<p>DS appreciates “good music” in every genre except country and folk</p>

<p>call it * roots music*- he should check out Butch Hancock, Jimmy LaFave or Vince Mira</p>

<p>I know- and Kristen Ward, she isn’t only gorgeous with a compelling voice and hoppin’ backup band. [Gary</a> Westlake!](<a href=“http://www.nodepression.com/profile/GARYWESTLAKE]Gary”>http://www.nodepression.com/profile/GARYWESTLAKE) but she is a real sweetie[Music</a> & nightlife | “Drive Away” may put Kristin Ward on road to stardom](<a href=“http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/musicnightlife/2004325468_nite04.html]Music”>http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/musicnightlife/2004325468_nite04.html)</p>

<p>mantori, I think that belongs on the worst lyrics thread :)</p>

<p>LOL at all the Green Day replies. My daughter always refers to them as the one’s that the parents like. She actually loved them when she was 5-6 (because we listened to them) and saw them at 15 during the American Idiot tour, with Jimmy Eat World and Flogging Molly.</p>

<p>Now she loves Michael Buble, which is so weird for me. I always tell her that all he does is take slow songs and then slows them down some more. I actually liked what she listened to in her brief black hair/emo phase more than the stuff she likes now.</p>

<p>Son bought me a new ipod shuffle & loaded it w/lots of his music. He also programmed my old shuffle two years ago. I think I like the earlier stuff better, but he’s given me:</p>

<p>Dropkick Murpheys, Flogging Molly (tho I have to object to the name on feminist grounds!), Plain White Ts, Green Day, Reel Big Fish & others I can’t remember but enjoy.</p>

<p>Kind of from my day, but my D became the hugest fan and rekindled my love for them: U2 and REM.</p>

<p>Kids were brought up on Springsteen, S is now a bigfan.</p>

<p>Oh, definitely got Shins from D.</p>

<p>I took my 14 yo S and 2 buddies to Loolapalooza 2003. I had as good a time as they did. I really liked Jane’s Addiction, Audioslave, Incubus.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>I recall the line up for the Lewisville Pop Festival in 1969. S is a strong Zepplin fan.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>If you like Jason Mraz you might want to try Jack Johnson and Matt Nathansen.</p>

<p>Oh, I forgot…Metric</p>

<p>From them to me: Jimmy Eat World, OK Go, and Blink 182 (Blink 182 is our local house band here in northern San Diego County. Half the kids D1’s age claim to have known or met them before they were famous.) </p>

<p>From me to them: Beatles, Simon and Garfunkel, Paul Simon.</p>

<p>Death Cab for Cutie and Taylor Swift for me and John Mayer for my husband.</p>

<p>OK Go are so cool! But I didn’t hear of them from my kids. A ditty of theirs used to be (maybe still is) the theme music for a show on Chicago Public Radio, and it was so catchy, I had to check them out. Glad I did.</p>
