Favorite songs:

Wuthering Heights - Kate Bush (!!!!!!!!)
This Woman's Work - Kate Bush
Crucify - Tori Amos
Canto Della Terra - Sarah Brightman/Andrea Bocelli
Pokarekare Ana - Hayley Westenra
Breathless - The Corrs

Krystal Meyers: Make Some Noise

I love the dance beats in this album! And her voice has improved so much, i also love how the tittle track is like an anthem.

I have so many bands/singers/songs that I like, as my taste in music is spread out. To mention a few:

singers/bands:

Luciano Pavarotti/The Three Tenors
Sissel Kyrkjebø
Mariah Carey
The Corrs
Kitaro
Carrie Underwood
Enigma
Simon & Garfunkel


songs:

"El Condor Pasa"
"April, come she will"
and "Bright Eyes", by Simon & Garfunkel

"Gravity of Love"
"Return to Innocence"
and "Total Eclipse of the Moon", by Enigma

"Toss the Feathers"
and "The Minstrel Boy", by The Corrs

"Titanic Overture"
and "Pie Jesu", sung by Sissel Kyrkjebø

etc.

Lately I've dived into Dark Ambient music. There are a few bands I listen to for this that I highly suggest you try out:

Lustmord
Synthetic Mind Decay
Atrium Carceri
Desiderii Marginis

...creepy stuff. But it makes a great mood for writing horror/fantasy stuff.

I've always been into Rock/Metal stuff.

My top 5:
Avenged Sevenfold
Bullet for my Valentine
Breaking Benjamin
Sick Puppies
Three Days Grace

I love the guitars, and the vocals and the lyrics and just everything about the style. It's kinda sorta really awesome.

Hmmm, at the moment, it's as follows:

Artist: David Cook

Song: When I Get Home, You're so Dead? - Mayday Parade

Album: Fast Times at Barrington High - TAI

David Cook, he is my all time favorite artist. He's incredible flexible and versatile when it comes to vocals. Not to mention he's amazing. He's also an amazing guy, all around. So, point blank, he's awesomesauce.

The song, well, it's just flat out addicting.

Album: The Academy Is... came up with a brilliant new collection, and the music, vocals, and all around message is superb.

I have to say it.

Rosetta's "The Galilean Satellites" is the greatest metal cd of the millienium. End of story..

My favorite singer is Sara Evans, my favorite song of her's is "A Real Fine Place to Start". My second favorite is Lonestar, and my favorite song of there's is "Amazed".

My favorite overall song is either "Jesus Take the Wheel" by Carrie Underwood or "How You Live" by Point of Grace.

i don't really have an all time favorite band/singer of all time.
but i'm pretty into all time low right now.
dear maria rocks.

Arg this is like answering to my favoirit book, but my top 5 are:

Iron Maiden (all but mainly Hallowed be thy name live)

Meatloaf - The monster's loose (album)

l70ETC (a world of warcraft band with three songs and no album)

AC/DC - highway to hell, back in black, tnt

Ugh, I love too many bands and songs by those bands to just pick one...so here's a few of my favorite songs and the band they're by.

sweating bullets/skull beneath the skin, Megadeth (very intense)

turn the page, Bob Seger (very mellow and sad)

Paschendale, Iron Maiden (pretty intense, well composed, and very descriptive)

Big Balls/up to my neck in you, AC/DC (i have a thing for double entendres )

sympathy for the devil, the Rolling Stones

Purple haze/all around the watchtower, Jimi Hendrix (my main man, along with Joe Stump and Eric Clapton...oh, and Steve Vai)

Superchic[k], Skillet, Britt Nicole, tobymac, Group 1 Crew, dc Talk, Newsboys, Third Day, Switchfoot, Relient K, Casting Crowns, and Jars of Clay.

Alive, Rock What You Got, Hey Hey, Pure, or Hero by Superchick, Jesus Freak by dc talk, Beautiful by Moby, Holiday by Britt Nicole, Breakfast by Newsboys, Gone by tobymac, Fingernails by Skillet.

Because? They all have squeaky clean lyrics, which is a big deal for me. Plus they just rock. ;D

Finally, a Casting Crowns fan! Have you heard "Every Man" yet?
