lets see, for music i am kind of old school, i love classical rock, the rolling stones, like em so much i got that big red tongue tattooed on my rump..ya know the one from sucking in the 70's..but when I really party (which i might add, rarely happens, i am far too mature for that now) i love the old AC/DC, the back in black album is my favorite..
instrumentals, i love kenny g on the sax
I have a strong very strong affinity for blues/jazz, coming from the south, and I jam mostly to blues music around the house when i am cleaning, Willie Dixon, Dr John, muddy waters, the old stuff is what i like
I also love country, Hank williams jr and his father are my favorites in that genre..
i love all kinds of music, except heavy metal, cant get into that crap..

Movies, I havent stepped foot in a theater since i was a kid..but I love sandra bullock, angelina jolie, sean connery etc..

My favorite movies of all time are 'gone with the wind' one of my fav books too. even like the sequel to it too
and of course the fiddler on the roof is also one of my most beloved.

I love all kinds of music. Literaly!

Rock to Punk
Regae to Grunge
Opera to Classical
Jazz to Folk
Country to Contemporary!
I even love some Rap music. Although I find it difficult to see any merit in that Half a dollar guy! (50c)

My favourite movie of all time is probably 'To Kill A Mockingbird'

If I listen to music whilst drawing, I generally listen to Folk or Country. Mainly because these genres of music carry good lyrics. They always tell stories that require imagination to conjure up the imagery of the tale. Probably my favourite artist in the Folk genre, is Kate Rusby. Beautiful voice, lovely songs. Very easy to listen to.

Hi there...

I love talking about music, I love music in general, I think its powerful, beauty and strong lyrics are my favorite but also think the music is very important as the voice and interpretation of the artist or vocalist...

Right now one of my favorite music is cabaret punk, and one of my favorites bands is Dresden dolls, I enjoy a lot rock, punk, metal, goth love lyrics of this type of music some of my favorites bands are, my ruin (amazing interesting lyrics, extreme vocals, an exorcism of the throat), flyleaf, rasputina (some kind of chelo rock.. beautiful), Courtney Love (she rocks!!!), etc...

Movies are great too, I enjoy watching drama or horror or funny and romantic movies, the ones I enjoy a lot are kinda pink lol... such as Ever after a cindirella story, Girl iterrumpted, Never been kissed, Amelie, El laberinto del fauno, City of angels, Koll bill (both of them), Sin city, Chicago, etc.... and I love popcorn XD

I listen mostly rock music. But there are other genres too like alternative, indie, blues, ethnic, classic and etc. On top of my playlist are Metallica, Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, R.E.M., U2, Radiohead.

I don't have one particular favourite movie. I have some movies which I considered worth to buy on DVD, Brokeback Mountain, Vanilla Sky, Libertine, Studio 54, Green Mile, Parfume and many others.

Movies - let me see now - so far this year, at the cinema, I've seen

The Curious Case of Benjamin Button
Watchmen
Monsters vs Aliens
Angels and Demons
Wolverine
Star Trek
Terminator Salvation
Transformers2 (hilariously bad)
Public Enemies

- nothing so far really standout - Benjamin Button and Star Trek were probably best, but I'm really looking forward to James Cameron's Avatar

and in 2008 I saw:
21
Cloverfield
Hancock
Hellboy2
Indiana Jones 4
Iron Man
Jumper
Quantum of Solace
The Dark Knight
The Day The Earth Stood Still
The Incredible Hulk
WALL-E
Wanted

I thought The Dark Knight was the best film of last year, closely followed by Pixar's WALL-E

I'm a big movie nut, as you'll gather, get to all the blockbusters, and many others too - directors I love:

Hitchcock - especially the late 50's/early 60's ones - Vertigo, North by Northwest, Marnie, Psycho
Sergio Leone - Once Upon a Time in the West, Once Upon a Time in America, The Good the Bad and the Ugly
David Lean - Lawrence of Arabia, Doctor Zhivago, Ryans Daughter
Roman Polanski - Chinatown, Tess, The Pianist
Martin Scorsese - Gangs of New York, Kundun, The Age of Innocence, Casino (Scorsese's famous for his gangster movies, but there's a lot more to him than that - I think he is still very under-appreciated)
Ridley Scott - Bladerunner, Alien, Gladiator
Stanley Kubrick - the greatest filmmaker of all - I'm a huge Kubrick fan - all of his films, but especially 2001 and Barry Lyndon (a very underappreciated and misunderstood film - often said to to be emotionless and dispassionate, but actually very powerfully emotional, it repays repeated rewatching, as does all Kubrick's work to see his endless attention to nuance and implication, as well as enormous numbers of subtle cross-references between the films)
Steven Spielberg - particularly Minority Report, Artificial Intelligence (a very misunderstood and complex, multilayered brilliant film, which I hope will be more widely appreciated in years to come), Amistad, The Empire of the Sun (which, like AI and Minority Report, if watched attentively, shows he's a much tricksier filmmaker than he's often credited as being).

Other movies - Pan's Labyrinth, Donnie Darko, Kill Bill 1&2, Carlito's Way, Dark City, The Man Who Wasn't There, Hero, Excalibur...

I could go on and on... smile.gif

I work at the cinema I see movies all the time lol But yeah I listen to all kinds of music so I just put whatever is on my computer and it plays. Tonight i'm going to see the Ugly Truth at midnight for the employees in the summer we get to watch it the night before it comes out. It's kinda cool but I don't go as often as last summer.

Umm.. Lets see, I lvoe my 80s rock, no doubt about that. Stuff life Aerosmith and Guns N' Roses, Motley Crue etc. But really not when I draw. I love modern music to, but nothing my friends really listen to, non of that rap. Its more along the lines of things like the Goo Goo Dolls ,Nickelback, John Mayer, Blink 182, Five for Fighting,The Fray etc. And we cannot forget legends (or atleast legends to me) tha t i will always enjoy listening to, people like Elton John, John Denver, James Taylor, Genisis etc.
I love basically everything! happy.gif considering i am a musican myself.
But for the most part I listen to soundtracks, things for musicals and Broadway. When I draw you would almost always find me listening to "Wicked" , "Sweeney Todd",etc. Anything Disney, but for the most part, The music I really enjoy the most is the music, with no words at all. The soundtracks of backround music from movies, such as Titanic by James Horner, or Pearl Harbor and Pirates of the carr scores, by Hans Zimmer, (who is my fav. composer.) ANyone form Marc Mancina , hans Zimmer, Willams, Horner, Elfman.. I know and love them all. I am always listing to some sort of music (yes, even as I type this.) I am a walking"I POD" so to speak.

I grew up in a musical house. My dad and mom both sang professionally before they got married. There was always music on in our house. We were the first people in our neighborhood to get a portable record player. We were much in demand for parties. I love all genres of music. I am not too much into rap or heavy metal but its all good! I am a particular fan of broadway musicals, and during my college years played in several musicals, Music Man, Guys and Dolls, Oklahoma. I can't play anything with singing or lyrics while i draw, too distracting as I want to sing along, but I have played classical or new age music (instrumentals) while drawing.
I have not been to the movies too often as an adult. The last theatrical movie I saw was "Doubt" and I am a huge Meryl Streep fan and she was fab in this. I have recently signed with netflix and have seen some really good movies, Benjamin Button, Notes on a Scandal, Elergy, Milk, No Country for Old Men, among others. My all time favorite movie...a three way tie, The Wizard of Oz, The Sound of Music, and Funny Girl.
Back to music, I had the thrill of going to see Madonna in concert last Thanksgiving. OMG! I was never a red hot fan of hers but let me tell you, she is amazing. I had to get the album "Hard Candy" as soon as I could! It is in "heavy rotation" on my ipod, and I blast it in the car whenever I can, I get the strangest looks from senior citizens, (of which, I am one) but I don't care, you can't stay still when you hear Madonna.
I really like songs for their lyrics usually. I am a big Billy Joel fan, Carol King, Elton John, James Taylor, Carly Simon and other singer song writers. I enjoy adult contemporary music, and enjoy Five for Fighting, Maroon Five, (hmm, both have 5 in their names) I am a huge Barbra Streisand fan, as well as, Josh Groban, Il Divo, Mariah Carey , and yes, I even like Britney Spears!
I could go on, but I won't....

Speaking of music I like a lot of different kinds. It's usually like this that I find something I like and listen to it for a week, month or till I get bored with it. I always like to come back to metal smile.gif
