Sometimes I think there is nothing that distinguishes us more than our choices in music. We can all have similar interests--for instance we can all love to read, love to eat ice cream, love animals--but we have widely variable tastes in music.Labels: Favorite music, favorite song, natural sounds

Colleen Coble writes romantic suspense with a strong atmospheric element. A lovable animal of some kind--usually a dog--always populates her novels. She can be bribed with DeBrand mocha truffles.
Denise Hunter writes women's fiction and love stories with a strong emotional element. Her husband says he provides her with all her romantic material, but Denise insists a good imagination helps too.
Diann Hunt writes romantic comedy and humorous women's fiction. She has been happily married forever, loves her family, chocolate, her friends, chocolate, her dog, and well, chocolate.
Cheryl Hodde writes romantic medical suspense under the pen name of Hannah Alexander, using all the input she can get from her husband, Mel, for the medical expertise. For fun she hikes and reads. Out of guilt, she rescues discarded cats. She and Mel are presently taking orders from four pampered strays.

I love music,
but as you , I to love the sound of silence, have ya ever heard the sound of fallen leaves as ya drive though them, to me they sound like wave hitting shore,
One snowy winter,I went for a walk, to the what we call the bottom back of mom& dads house.
when ya get there, there's this cave on a small ciff, well that snowy day I climbed up there.
When I got to the top and just stood there, it was so peaceful,
listening to snow falling.
that was a long time ago, but i can still hear it!
I know what you mean, jel. There's such peace when the snow is falling. Another good sound.
My favorite music of all time is Pachelbel's Canon in D. This piece has moved me in so many different ways and every time I hear it I am convinced it came directly from God above. Since I suffer from chronic insomnia, I often listen to music during the night but nothing seems to relax me more or prepare me more for sleep than the Canon. I don't think I will ever get tired of it.
CHRISTMAS MUSIC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Ruthie, that's one of my favorites, too! Mel and I both love that, and listened to it often when we were dating. Now, we listen to audio books when we drive. LOL But I still love Pachelbel's Canon in D.
Diann, why am I NOT surprised? I know I'm a scrooge, but there just happen to be some Christmas songs I love, such as Mary Did You Know? and the Hallelujah Chorus, Little Drummer Boy. This is just the first time in probably 30 years that I'm not going to be singing them with the choir.
what a bout
Trans~Siberian Orchestra,
now there is some good christmas music. ;)
That would probably work. I love Russian and Belarusian music. I like anything in a minor chord. I'm teased that I love organ funeral music.
don't tell anyone but I like it too!
That probably makes two people in the world.
I like all types of music--classical, pop, oldies, rap, r&b, bluegrass, country, etc., etc. However, I don't like scream-o (not really music, in my book) and I don't like heavy metal.
I'm not into heavy metal, either. Not even sure what scream-o is, which dates me, I'm sure. It sound hideous, though. I find it interesting that, more and more, as I walk into stores, I hear very old familiar songs that were popular when I was a teen--and now they're considered classic. Sigh.
it's better to be thought of as a Classic, then as a Relic! :)
I enjoy many different types of music, but when I want music as a background, that will not disturb my thoughts, or if I want something calming, I turn to Irish Dreams (Alisa Jones) which my daughter introduced me to. I also will put on the Doctor Who soundtracks but these usually bring to mind scenes which are distracting. :-)
Okay, classic it is, jel.
Sandie, there are some types of music that really move me, but that catch me up into such delight in the music that I can't focus on anything else. And then, there are some that get stuck in my head--Mel calls them ear worms--and they drive me nuts! The cure for that is humming the theme tune for Gilligan's Island.
I bet Di has the California Grapes on as we speak. LOL I like Christian pop mostly. Also oldies from the 60s. LOL
Thanks alot ! now i'm going to have that tune stuck in my head!
I alway like the "frito~banbito" corn chips, jingle does any one remeber it ?
Yeah, I can do oldies from early 70s, of course. Bee Gees were playing last week when I was doing email at Starbucks in San Francisco, and so I stayed awhile. They were my all-time favorite group.
California grape song? My stepson developed a special dance for that and danced it at his wedding.
Frito Bandito..California grape...anything is better than the Star Trek Voyager theme that's been going through my head the past couple of days. ACK! Anything can get old.
I'm such a freak. I can't stand listening to music! I know, I'm so strange. The only thing I've found that I really like is KLOVE in the background while I'm working. I just "discovered" christian soft rock about two years ago and I find I really like that. Nothing else. I'm soooo boring. My husband lives for music. I'd rather have no radio on, ever in the car.It scrambles my brain, I swear. I like it in small doses for about 15 minutes, then I wear ear plugs on long road trip while he cranks his music up! (OK, I do love that "Four Seasons" classical piece and Tchaikovsky.)
Wow, Katie, me too! I mean, there are times when I like to listen to music, but it's rare. Usually I need silence or natural sounds. The train three blocks away has driven me crazy for nearly fifteen years. Poor Mel always turns off his music when I'm in the car.
