Favorite bands!

why cant people read, ELABORATE!!!

i love almost all bands from the 70s to the late 90s

Queen - IMO one of the best bands ever (though i cant say it is first as there are to many bands to choose from).

AC/DC - i guess you could say that i have been "Thunderstruck" by their music XD

Aerosmith - (man i am bad at elaborating) just a great band.

Peter Gabriel - sledgehammer is probably the most awesome music video ever (it is stop animation, i you haven't seen it yet: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hqyc37aOqT0 )

Peter Schilling - his "Major Tom (Coming Home)" is beautiful in both of his versions, love his voice

(i have lots more but not enough time to do them)

Have you heard some of the Genesis songs from when he was still part of that band ? In my opinion, as a solo artist, his songs are generally too 'pop' compared to the brilliant things he did when he was in Genesis. And a way too big majority of what Genesis did after he left the band also became poor.

-The Strokes - The song "You Only Live Once" is somehow catchy
- Oasis - I don't really like "Lyla", but I like the semi-older stuff like "Morning Glory" and "Little By Little"
- Linkin Park - the first band I've gotten interested in. I like Hybrid Theory the most, compared to their newer ones. Meteora is alright too.
- Weezer - "Buddy Holly" is catchy, as well as "Island in the Sun". I hate "Beverly Hills", and I haven't been able to get a hold of The Red Album yet.

I'm too lazy to keep using quotation marks soooooooooo I'll list bands I like and what song(s) I appreciate most from them:

-Razorlight - In the Morning and Somewhere Else
-Aqualung - Brighter than Sunshine (I've only listened to it once, tbh)
-Coldplay - Viva la Vida, Yellow, Talk, Fix You
-Good Charlotte - The Chronicles of Life and Death
-Franz Ferdinand - every single song?
-The Walkmen - they sound so horrible that they make me want to sing in a screechy voice
-Hot Hot Heat - their newer songs (I only remember 5 Times Out of 100 right now), Goodnight
-Snow Patrol - I like most of their popular songs
-Death Cab for Cutie - I like their albums Transatlanticism (spellcheck?), and Plans
-Relient K - I'm actually Christian, fyi. I like their newest album (5 Score 7 Years Ago) the best, since it's even more fast-paced than the others
-OK Go - Do What You Want
-U2 - I've only listened to the album, How to Dismantle an Atomic Bomb, and I like all of the songs on there...
-Yellowcard - Way Away
-Switchfoot - Meant to Live

And that's basically it. I doubt all of that would seem to fit my personality, but I'd listen to anything presented to me, as long as it's not Country, Hip Hop, or Rap.
-

"5 Score and 7 Years Ago" is 2 albums back (It came out in 07), since then Relient k has put out "The Bird and the Bee Sides" (which was a B-sides album) and "Forget and Don't Slow Down" (a personal favorite of mine). 5 Score and 7 Years Ago is an excellent album though!

Linkin Park was like the first band I got into too! How funny.....
N-Dubz. Signed to Def Jam. I've always loved their type of music. Its inspired me in different ways.
1 3 doors down

2 drowning pool

3 Nickel back
N-Dubz.

They came from an amazing background and their story is touching. Dappy being the most interesting member, Tulisa being the model and singer of the group and Fazer being the mastermind behind the keyboard.
I like modern pop type of stuff, like:
Big Time Rush
Mindless Behavior (good tune)
And christian rap:
dc Talk
Lecrae
And some christian rock type things:
Jars of Clay (I met them)
Brandon Heath(Met him with Jars)
They are all cool. Gotta listen to all on the list
THE LIST SAYS SO! (creepy haunted house sound effects)
I have a few (these are only the ones that speak English as a primary language):

Dragonforce I can understand why some people don't like them, because some people, as Roan put it in a previous post, think the guitar is too technical. I can understand that, but I still appreciate the amount of time I believe that they put into being able to play that way.

Talking Heads I didn't like them much at first, but my dad turned me on to them, and I like the way they sound.

My Chemical Romance My friend, who you may know as Ryuk, told me about these guys. I really only like one of their songs, but I like the way the band sounds.

Simon and Garfunkel I guess these guys count? Not sure. But they're some of my mom's favorites, and I like them a lot.

Meatloaf Once again, not sure if he counts. But I like plenty of his songs.

The Verve Pipe I've only heard one of their songs, but that one song I like.

Uncle Kracker Drift Away is one of my favorites also. As you can see, most of my favorite bands are influenced by my favorite songs.
Onmyouza. They're not another J-Rock band everyone knows for doing a popular anime opening. In fact they've only done one for an anime I haven't watched. They have been around for a long time and they are a shining example as to why I like eastern music way more than western music.

Paramore and Coldplay ♥

Paramore, well, I love Hayley Williams as a singer, and I love the songs they put out. Although it was upsetting when the Farro brothers left, they're still a band. And the songs they make are just awesome.

Coldplay is more of a recent thing that my sister got me into. She was obsessed with Coldplay and over time I grew to like them too. My favorite songs are (this is quite a long list) Green Eyes, Speed of Sound, Yellow, The Scientist, God Put a Smile Upon Your Face, Fix You, and Clocks. Although, I still do like most of their other songs.

It is hard to find a song from both these bands that I won't like.
My favorite bands are:
1: Beatles What luck that John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison, and Ringo Starr (AKA Richard Starkey) met and became legends. I've got a few records that I play and love. My favorite song by them is "Blackbird"
2: Queen I don't need to explain how Queen has captivated me. nothing really matters to me as long as I can listen to Queen XD
My favorite song by them is "We will rock you" because I've listened to this song a billion times and I know the lyrics by heart.
Coldplay is my favorite band, though I've been straying away from mainstream alternative. I would have to say dEUS.It's an underrated band, and personally I think their song "Include Me Out" is the best. I think you should check them out if you like Alternative.
I'm more into Christian Metalcore:

Underoath,
The Devil Wears Prada,
Oh, Sleeper, and
August Burns Red

My reason for all four is that I love the Heavy Beats and the message they send.
Not only that but they all sound amazing live in concerts.
i like in order:

1: Maroon 5
2: Greenday
3: lincoln park

I don't have any deep reasoning for liking these bands/artists; I just like the way they sound & stuff, so there's not really anything to elaborate on. Some of them are good to skate to, I guess.
