Music that transports me and is unique. I care more about texture and rhythm than melody or harmony. Electronic sounRAB usually appeal to me.


I'm guessing it was "shit".
 
Music that has amazing lyrics, yet sounRAB good too. Like Bright Eyes.

But what is "good music"?



I agree. Most music that is "good" does suck. "Good" music is music that everyone listens to. Most people think music is "good" because everyone else listens to it.
 
I like anything that makes me want to dance, laugh, cry, makes me calm, pumps me up, makes me think, helps me not to think, makes me trip out, blows my ears off.
Genre is not an obstacle.

(I think that's 140 exactly!)
 
Pop aesthetic: harmonies, hooks, melody. Also, layered and textured sound. And great rhythm. I like most things, but psychedelic rock and pop, shoegaze, Madchester, dreamy electronica, '70s punk and hooky guitar pop and rock tend to be my favourites. But I'm always looking for something new and different...experimental music like Captain Beefheart and Glenn Branca is a lot of fun to listen to. I can listen to and find something to enjoy in almost anything (as long as the lyrics aren't bigoted).

But ultimately, an immediately catchy and memorable three-minute pop song (whether the Beach Boys, Teenage Fanclub or Sex Pistols) is my first love.
 
Genuine music, from the heart. Music that just shows off w/out substance is useless. Have a theme and/or a message, stay on track unless it makes sense not to.
 
"Good music" is "nice" music. "Good music" is music that can esaily be ignored. "Good music" doesn't challenge people. "Good music" sounRAB pretty and has no further depths.

God, I hate "good music."
 
If your primary reason for listening to music is anything other than personal enjoyment, suffice to say your head is so far up your ass I'm surprised you could manage to hear it at all.
 
i think when you wanna relax listen to jack johnson. when your rockin on i pump up like some rage against the machine or like somethin like that. but i really love RED HOT CHILI PEPPRES.
 
One of the best things about music is that everyone likes it, and that can only be said about a few things in life. I could see how if you worked in the industry it might get awfully boring though... take something you love and make it your job and you might end up hating it.
 
Anything from 80's hair metal to electro funk. But, some songs are annoying. Basically anything that isn't Rap or Country (a few exceptions.)
