So I'm bored and I started this thread. Just wanted to know what bands you like to listen to. Or do you love mostly everything under the sea? And if you do have favorites, talk about 'em!

My favorite band is Green Day. Seriously, since 2005 they are like my OPT before BBM, Nuke, and w/e else I've ever been into. I went to see them in NY Central Park and it was A-MAZING!

Other bands: My Chemical Romance, Blink 182, Patent Pending (Long Island band), Blue October, Bon Iver, Anti Flag, Avril Lavinge, Backstreet Boys, Bob Dylan, Bowling for Soup, Boys Like Girls, Evanescence, ..I could go on and on!

What about you?

OWL CITY
OWL CITY
OWL CITY.

He's not a band, just a guy, and I'm really in love with him.
His music is just the most gorgeous thing. It's just so incredibly dreamy.
And he's adorable. He makes these hilarious puns all the time on Twitter.

I just saw him front row center five days ago so I'm on the biggest, fluffiest sparkly rainbow cloud nine-thousand you can imagine. :wub

What else do I listen to?
RILO KILEY. Love. Swimming With Dolphins, another project of Adam Owl City Young. Jack's Mannequin! Love love. Nevershoutnever (another adorable live performer), The Ready Set, Panic! at the Disco (I miss them already.), PlayRadioPlay!, Shiny Toy Guns, The Postal Service, um, anything with electronics, basically. Synth is my favorite instrument. :D

I just love anything that sounds unique. And honest. Like you can hear why the artist wrote that song. I love that.

Ironically, I also LOVE top forty radio. I'll listen to anything, really. Except Nickelback. They're my pet peeve.

Um.
OWL CITY. :wub

And all your other bands, none I know either (ok, Panic! I know.)

Besides Green Day, I am in FLOVE with Blue October and Bon Iver right now. If you haven't checked them out, you must..NOW! Not that I don't care about te other bands I listed but these are my :wub as of now, hehe.

"For Luke, Forever Ago" is how I got into Bon Iver btw :P

Haha! I wish I could marry him, but he'd probably just think I was a crazy fan. Which I'm so not. *shifty eyes*

He identifies as Electronica/Pop. :D
www.myspace.com/owlcity

I love Blue October! Calling You is one of my favorite songs ever. :wub
I have never heard of Bon Iver, though, I'll look them up! I love finding new bands. :D

And I listen to basically anything I can find clicking around on Myspace. I moved to a suburb where there's nothing to do so all the kids just find indie music to listen to and be cool about. So naturally, I had to do the same thing.

Owl City, however, did get me a lot of weird stares, like 'who is that?' but now he's becoming really, really popular 'cause they're playing his single Fireflies on mainstream radio. It makes me feel a little lonely. I'm a nerd.

More of their older stuff though. Because they were the first band I ever listened to in the alt. rock genre and I fell in luuuuuurve.

I also like Taking Back Sunday, Weezer, The Cure, that one band who plays the song, "I got soul but I'm not a soldier..." I don't remember who it was cuz my minds all fuzzy byut I like them too.

7 Seconds, Face to Face, AFI, Aquabats, Flogging Molly, Bad Religion, Nsync, BSB (what the hell? how they'd sneak in there?), and a whole bunch more.

I absolutely DO NOT like Coldplay with the exception of the songs Yellow and The Scientist.

Um, as far as other bands/mucisians - Aerosmith, The Beatles, Hanson, George Strait, Garth Brooks, Reba McEntire, Spice Girls (shut up), BSB, NSync, Linkin Park, Bob Seger, JOURNEY, Tim McGraw, Abba, and a whole slew of others that only confirm my diverse taste in music.

Yes, this was me with Green Day! I wasn't into much music before then, mostly listening to the songs on the radio then BOMB, Alt. Rock LOVE!

I only had a CD player at the time before GD where I'd listen to BSB and Avirl. I can say right now I know EVERY lyric of both those bands song, it's sad. :zombie

If you want to call me a weirdo fano, I'm probably getting a tattoo in Nov. with the lyrics "Better than your lucky stars" for Green Day's song "Waiting"

I freakin' love Linkin Park! There old stuff is :ftw Always makes me want to headbang and mosh at the same time! :rockon

I used to LOVE Taking Back Sunday. I'm sad that I haven't listened to their songs in awhile. Uh oh, Itunes Store -- where I come! :P

OT: Talking about tattos and fandoms. When I was a part of the BBM forum, I saw people get tattoos based on quotes and stuffs from the movie. I wonder if any people ever got tattos for Soap couples. I wouldn't because they change so much ( :rotfl ) but would you ever do one for Nuke? LOL.

I also love Third Eye Blind, Yellowcard, Queen, and SafetySuit. Oh, and Blue October, too! Hells yes. Their album "Foiled" is friggin' awesome! :rockon

I also have an inordinate fondness for musicals...Phantom, Rent, Spring Awakening, Rocky Horror Picture Show, Avenue Q, The Wedding Singer.... :alrighty
