Music has been and still is one of my driving forces, both playing and listening to. Most genres will tickle my ASMR except modern jazz; that just irritates me.

One particular piece has deep meaning for me as it was the background theme for a TV series about the holocaust and as I’m of Jewish extraction, this has meaningful significance for me:-

Difficult to list favourite types of music. I like to be open to new sounds.

But my main listening would be:

Rock, mainly 70s
Metal (and the many sub genres)
Prog
Female fronted symphonic rock (Nightwish)
Some folk (Steeleye Span)
Some blues

Picked up new bands on the various music threads on here.
A good friend of mine has shared various of the modern day singer song writers, which I have enjoyed. :slightly_smiling_face:

Any genre of music and sounds that floats my boat or stirs my emotions be it tears, those wonderful goosebumps and shivers, stuff that makes me scream and holler and bang imaginary drums, sentimental or sexy and music that takes me back to my youth . :partying_face:

However, folk and rap - leave me cold. :confused:

Gospel music reminds me of a scene from the Blues Brothers film, all dancing- singing- drum bashing - jumping up and down and dressed up people trying to sing. No wonder they start freaking out in the film having to listen to that

Hopefully i shall be going to an André Rieu concert next year as it was cancelled this year

I love listening to Elvis Presley singing his Gospel songs.:pray:

Cliff Richards is another great gospel singer, Millennium Prayer and Saviours Day are two of my favourites.

This genre was invented, I think, by The Nice (5 Bridges) and later used by Emerson, Lake and Palmer on some of their tracks.

Prog folk
Folk rock (a la Steeleye Span)
