    Personally, I never got these people that just use music as a background ambient sort of presence. Does anyone else just listen to music as like a sole activity in itself? Also, anyone else just miss the days of CDs? When you had the tangible product with the artwork...it felt like a more complete package...now its just click and play...it felt more special :(....another thing I can't stand with the modern world.

    That’s the only way I enjoy listening to music - actively. Having it as background makes me jittery and distracted. As a result, I probably listen to less music than a lot of people because my time is limited.

    I do miss CDs and albums and liner notes and artwork. I still have a lot though

    Eta: i miss the whole culture around it too. Record shopping, record stores, cute boys in record stores. EPs, LPs, 45s.

    I dig lots of stuff, but my go-to is 80s hair metal. Ratt, Poison, KISS, Def Leppard, Motley Crue, The Cult, Whitesnake... Fantastic music to grow up with!

    Ohh.. yeah I love me a good ballad while cleaning. I love the Scorpions. They are probably my favorite band of all time. I would love to see them in concert.

    I saw the Scorpions in 1988 on the Savage Amusement tour. That's a great album. Lots of ballads on that one

    It all depends on my mood. I enjoy old and new country. Rockabilly, Doo wop, 50's-80's rock, hip hop, R&B, soul, Motown, classic jazz as in the Rat Pack, Billie Holiday, Ella, and so on.

    I can appreciate most forms of music but Mark Knopfler is my guy. Always has been.
