Favorite song... from a genre you don't usually like or listen too?

[Rasmus Emilsson]

Oh dear, Miley Cyrus - When I look at you, it started as a joke on LAN parties, now I actually like it...

 

[NoeL]

Can't stand hip hop... except for this baby:

Also, as was mentioned earlier, Run DMC are pretty cool... as is Push It by Salt n Pepa.

 

[Akimoto]

I don't usually listen to RHCP but The Adventures of Raindance Maggie was solid.

 

[Muspelheim]

I'm guessing "Japan"

...But I thought it was Swedish?

It is, which is rather odd. Swedish usually works best for furious music, but in this case, they've found a real sweetspot. And thank you for linking it, now I don't have to. :3

Whatever it's called, it's certainly not a genre I listen to, regurally. I believe it's some sort of 4kids-production. But Caramelldansen is a wonderful exception. I can listen to it all day! Hell, I'd suggest either this or the Battlefield-themesong for the new national anthem.

A fair number of Miracle of Sound's songs. Wasteland Soul, Sweet L.A., Little Sister, Mind of the Bat. Few others. I'm mostly a Metalhead, I listen to a fair bit of Classical... Aside from that... I do listen to a collection of some of the Classic Rock songs. Piano Man, Carry on my Wayward Son, Fortunate Son and so on. But I don't really have a single song from a genre that I enjoy.

Yay! ^_^

I tried listening to some of their other songs, but I didn't like them so much. It's just something about this song. ...Probably the dance x3

I don't like dance music, because of the chipmunk voices, and the thump-thump-y bass, but I like Caramelldansen, which counts as dance music, I think. Correct me if I'm wrong, please =3


Oh, and I liked this video the best ^_^

caramelldansen could be considered dance if your using a vague definition, but its true genre is j-pop (guess what the J means). This type of music is common out there, give it a search.

(i only differentiate because i do like "true" dance music, and the related fields of techno,electro and house music, so i have a small bit of knowledge on the topic.

Hope this helps.

It is swedish but it was popularized by a japanese dance game, because low and behold, it sounded quite similar to their style of music. At any rate its closer to j-pop than what we in the west call dance.

Oh, I see...

Maybe I should listen to J-pop, then...

...When I can have sound again >~<

I only have 2 genres I don't like. Dance techno, which I find becomes extremely irritating after a shockingly short period of time, even though I don't mind it initially, but I don't have any songs from that genre that I actually listen to.

and rap. Which I actively despise, but I can tolerate Eminem. I still don't really like any of his songs so I don't know if you can call that a "favorite," but I don't mind listening to them if I have to.

 

[OmniscientOstrich]

I've yet to find anything in the realm of dubstep I like...then again I haven't been looking very hard, there'll probably be something I like out there...maybe. Anyway, I'm also not exactly the biggest supporter of Rap/Hip-hop, but...

 

[appleblush]

I can't say I usually like "techno pop" or dance music remixes or whatever you would call that genre. Except this song from M.I.A:

[XMark]

I don't like dance music generally. However, I like LMFAO's Party Rock Anthem way more than I rightly should.

 

[Dr Pussymagnet]

I'm not big into rap but oh my God BASED GOD YOU CAN FUCK MY *****

 

[DyranLK]

I'm usually not a complete fan of country, but Lonestar's I'm Already There was pretty good. So are a couple of others, actually.

I personally don't look at music as being divided by genres, but rather, (and more prominently), by which I like and don't like, really. I mean, music is a broad art form, so it makes it somewhat difficult to make an established opinion on categories that are more technical in nature and whatnot.

But nonetheless..

 

[Argtee]

Rick Astley- Never Gonna Give You Up

Seriously.

 

[Shock and Awe]

Yeah, mine is a rap song too, I hate most of it but I gotta love Tupac.

 

[Sarah Kerrigan]

For me Hollywood Undead and Jeff Bridges.

That's it XD

 

[DavidTanis]

I really dislike country, but dig Tom Petty's American Girl.
