My Spotify curated "On Repeat" playlist:
"Slow Disco" by St. Vincent "Dylan Thomas" by Better Oblivion Community Center "call the police" by LCD Soundsystem "Haiti" by Arcade Fire "Sugarboy" by St. Vincent "Gasoline" by The Airborne Toxic Event "Neighborhood #2 (Laika)" by Arcade Fire "Describe" by Perfume Genius "Didn't Know What I Was In For" by Better Oblivion Community Center "Empire Line" by The National "Neighborhood #3 (Power Out)" by Arcade Fire "The Ballad Of Me & My Friends" by Frank Turner "I Still Do" by The Cranberries "We Will Become Silhouettes" by The Postal Service "Que' Onda Guero" by Beck "Masseduction" by St. Vincent "Don't Look Back In Anger" by Oasis "Car" by Built To Spill "Reach For The Sky" by Social Distortion "Plaster Saint" by Trevor Powers "Moonbend" by Perfume Genius "To Keep An Area" by Guided By Voices I usually have Frank Turner, St. Vincent, Perfume Genius, LCD Soundsystem, and (apparently) Arcade Fire on heavier rotation, but listen to lots of different music. Last year, Spotify advised me that I listened to over 3900 different songs, which is nearly 11 unique songs per day. I don't think I'll come anywhere near that in 2020.

I don't think that I have favourite bands anymore. If someone asks me this question, I will usually reel off a list including:Beatles, AC/DC, Pixies. In fact these are my favourite bands from when I was younger. I don't listen to them much these days.
Most of the music I listen to is the result of disappearing down YouTube rabbit holes. We bemoan the perceived homogeneity and blandness of "chart" music these days, but there is so much music out there on streaming services, YouTube, other platforms, etc. I don't have much time for my old favourites. My musical tastes are constantly changing and evolving. I still like my old stuff, but life is to short to put on Abbey Road or Back in Black again. Last edited by Silurian; 08-10-2020 at 03:06 AM. |

It's varied a lot over the years, but right now I'd say:
King Crimson, Dream Theater, Rush, Wilco, and anything that Steve Morse is a part of. Oh, and John Prine. And Iona. Steely Dan. Darn, it's hard to stop

I never really listened to GbV until recently, but Spotify does a good job of curating playlists, so they add songs that fit into the mix well.

Probably the same show. We were going to the Fox in Oakland.

750 songs in my phone, many 50, 60, 70 years old, some current, but mostly stuff originally recorded 1960-1999 when new music actually sounded new and interesting (not so much since then as industry priorities have rudely elbowed creative artistry aside). Genres all over the map. I like selecting random play on my ever-growing playlist and enjoying whatever pops up.
Whenever I get an annoying earworm going (something insipid from a TV jingle or a store), I mentally cue up anything I can play on the guitar (at least enough to know the key, main riff and chords). This instantly pulverizes and deletes whatever was bugging me. This week my favorite earworm eraser is Joe Walsh, Welcome to the Club. My foot is tapping all day. It's amusing to know I have over 7GB of music in my back pocket after seeing (just last week) that a 5MB IBM computer hard drive in 1956 was half the physical size of a VW Beetle.

I have finally fine tuned my Pandora stations. Separated by primary instruments. Piano, Guitar, Horn etc etc. Now by voting as the station cycles through songs I have created a very listenable playlist. In Amazon music I also have playlist by type Smooth Jazz, Acoustic Guitar etc makes for hours of music.

I have a pretty eclectic collection on my phone, about 800 songs or so, but I don't make playlists. I usually just hit "shuffle" and let 'em play. I personally chose all the tunes, so there's little chance that I won't like one.

It's subject to change. Right now my go-to Playlist is comprised of 70's groups including Asia, Toto, Foreigner, Fleetwood Mac, America, .38 Special, et. al....
