Hey people!

So many of you know I am a musician/singer and lover of good music. I grew up singing classical as a child soprano and then into my teens went on to write church music, indie rock and was in a metal band. In my 20’s I got into dance music but have since moved from there to acoustic, r’n’b, soul and blues rock. I sit however listening to more Soul R’n’B these days but I love it all.

So. I know there is a huge age range on here but I wanna hear people’s selections.

Here’s the question:

1. What’s your favourite musical style.

2. Favourite artist.

3. Most embarrassing song in your music collection

4. Your Number 1 played song on either iTunes or your collection.

Here’s Mine:

1. As Mentioned Soul/R’n’B

2. Aïrto Edmundo (Check him on Youtube.) He’s my male voice crush. I would marry his voice if I could.

3. Olivia Newton John’s Magic

4. Take on Me – A-Ha As of Yesterday it changed. Kelly (My Wife) says if people didn’t know you were gay they do now.

Feel free to add more questions if you want. All in good fun. 8)

Hey right back!!

1. If I really had to narrow it all down my favourite styles are metal and alternative

2. My fav artists are Andreas Scholl (counter tenor) and Robert Smith. And Serge Tankian on his own.

3. most embarassing song that I’ll admit to is HIM’s version of the Neil Diamond classic ‘Solitary Man’. (though I’ve got a bit of Hillsong I’m not proud of!)

4. This is a hard one – I’m listening to Brand New’s ‘Daisy’ more than anything.

1. I tend to drift into singer/songwriter territory. Some of it gets called ‘alternative’ – how strange is it that ‘alternative’ is now a genre in itself with just as much shelf space in a music shop as ‘mainstream’.

2. Tori Amos. Let’s just say the collection is large.

3. Embarrassing? Oh gosh, I don’t know. Probably something left over from growing up in the 80s. I still have that Spandau Ballet cassette somewhere…

4. I don’t do songs, I do albums. And I don’t normally do them in ways that enable a count!

Favourite musical style – Progressive/alternative rock

Favourite artist – Dozens but I’d probably go with Opeth or Gomez.

Most embarrassing song in music collection – Right Said Fred “I’m Too Sexy”

Most played song – “Arriving Somewhere But Not Here” by Porcupine Tree.

are you 😀
