Picking favorites musics is incredibly hard, arg. But I managed to make a selection of the musics I like the most, and to keep it as small as possible.
Here we go :

=> DJ Rolando & The Aztec Mystic - Nights of the Jaguar
Electronic music ; you like it or not, I just love it. And no, techno isn\'t only about *BOOM BOOM*, as most people think because of all the commercial crap they play on radio. The *BOOM BOOM* is important of course, but it is just a background, not the thing you must focus on while listening. People tend to do the opposite ;). Anyway, I gave up explaining why I love it long ago, so I won\'t bother you with it. Aphex, forgive me.

=> Moby - Everloving
*deep sigh*. Soothing. I don\'t like much the sound of the guitar (yea, I know I\'m weird, don\'t flame me :P), but there is always an exception after all. This is one (no *BOOM BOOM*, I promise ;) ). \'Play\' is really an awesome album, \'18\' was such a disappointment, what happened to you, Moby ;( ? You shouldn\'t eat all that vegetables, they\'re full of pesticides.

=> Pat Metheny - The Heart Asks Pleasure First (The Piano Lesson soundtrack)
Piano, violin, that\'s all I need ;) (not knowing how to play the piano must be one of my greatest frustration in life  :( ). Sometimes you are sad, but it feels good anyway (melancholy). That one suits those moments perfectly.
\'Any Other Name\' by Thomas Newman, and \'Pas Si Simple\' by Yann Tiersen are also good substitutes. *Takes a handkerchief*

Ok, you want some music with lyrics :). I don\'t have much of those, but I particularly like this one  :
=> Bjork - Joga
Bjork is such a peculiar singer. I can\'t say that I\'m fond of her music, but there\'s a very interesting artistic research in what she does, I have much respect for her because of that. That is, of course, only my humble opinion.

If someone here recognize himself in some of those musics, I\'d love to know about his/her
favorites songs :).

I don\'t like the sound of the guitar either, simply because it\'s overused. For a while, the sound of the type of drumset that most rock songs use, I simply could not stand...

Well, as for my favourite band, I\'ll say Nine Inch Nails, always. But Pitchshifter is a very close second, and Linkin Park an even closer third.

And as for songs:

Nine Inch Nails: The Great Below
Pitchshifter: Stop Talking (So Loud)
Linkin Park: My December

I don\'t see what you see in The Great Below. I have heard two other songs by NIN, Closer and I\'m Afraid of Americans, and I like them both better. And then there\'s all the songs I like better than all the NIN songs I\'ve heard... but to each his own.

Davis: I think you quoted the wrong person in your first bit. :)


I like \'The Great Below\' because I feel Trent is singing the song with alot of passion and emotion, and I like the eery gentleness of the music in a track with such suicidal-ish lyrics.


Sep: You know I love Please Sir almost as much as you do! :D

Hm, I forgot one - \"Overjoyed\" by the Jars of Clay

I have to admit that I like most of their stuff, but especially their slightly gloomy second album.

The songs go togethor they sould just be one song as a far as I\'m  concerned.

Alternative rock is my favorite by far.


You are the man.

Though I prefer Eriatarka.

After some work, I managed to get my hands on Please Sir, and I must say, it\'s really not that great, IMO. I guess Moogie just has a very different taste in music, as I have yet to agree with her on anything musical.

I picked up the \"3 days grace\" Cd, it\'s pretty good, so I listen to that mainly. \"Scared\" and \"Home\" are decent.

Yah three days grace ROX!! But today I was watching muchvideoflow and I saw this video by Point Blank a Rap group can\'t think of what it was called but was so good..the video consisted of the \"white man\" swat cops around the ghetto just picking off black people that fit the description of hip hop :D They are rapping behind cars hiding well hordes of cops are searching for them one at a time! Classic!!
