12/22/2016- Made a bet with Ganoncrotch that the first 6 months of 2017 will be worse than 2016. A poll will be made to determine the winner. Loser has to take a picture of them imitating their profile picture.

bet: lost

Yoko Kanno, Queen, Daft Punk, Gorillaz, and Queens of the Stone Age come to mind, though there are plenty of others and it's hard to pick. Here's one you probably haven't heard before:

Also really getting into synthwave lately, both new and old.



As long as they write their own music and are genuine artists and not manufactured "product", I'm down with whatever.

Wow, so many artists.

 

Are they all your favorite? 😂

I rarely listen to English music, but a few of my favorite bands and singers of this language are:

Arcade Fire
Oasis
Pink Floyd
David Gilmour
The Doors
Genesis
Weezer
Incubus
Ok Go
Mika
Coldplay
Bruno Mars
Phil Collins
Heart
Boston



My bet with The_Liquid_Laser: I think the Switch won't surpass the PS2 as the best selling system of all time. If it does, I'll play a game of a list that The_Liquid_Laser will provide, I will have to play it for 50 hours or complete it, whatever comes first.

Hard to say which is my favorite.

 

These are the artists/groups I listen to when I drive to and back from work and while I work out at gym.

 

I have...too many songs :p  -- (Most of them being from video game OSTs)

O_O

 

And for a while I thought 30 songs was a lot...
