Favorite Genres/Artists/Bands (Besides Hikki)?

Let's see...

Chinese Pop:
王菲 (Faye Wong), 梁咏琪(Gigi Leung), 梁静茹 (Jasmine Leung), 孙燕资 (Stefanie Sun), 許茹芸 (Valen Hsu), 周华健 (Emil Chau), 张宇 (Phil Cheung).

Japanese Pop:
坂本真綾 (Maaya Sakamoto), 倉木麻衣 (Mai Kuraki), 松たか子 (Matsu Takako), Every Little Thing, See-Saw.

Mainstream:
Red Hot Chili Peppers, U2, Green Day (of old days), The Goo Goo Dolls, Matchbox Twenty, Weezer, Eve 6, Will Smith, The Beatles, Sarah McLachlan, Shania Twain, C?line Dion, Dido.

Others:
Just about everything by 梶浦由記 (Yuki Kajiura) of .hack//SIGN, .hack//Liminality, Noir, etc fame, several works by 菅野よう子 (Yoko Kanno), especially the soundtrack from Vision of Escaflowne, too many game soundtracks to list (FFVI, CC, Xenogears, FFVIII, and CT top the list though), and while I can't really name many classical pieces as "favorites", I do appreciate that genre of music. Exceptions that I can say are favorites include Suite No. 3 - Air On A G String by Bach, Concerto In E Major RV269 (Spring) by Vivaldi, and of course Symphony No. 9 in Di Minor Op. 125 by Beethoven.

Well, I'd say I have a pretty varied set of musical interests (hard not to if you're gonna have 60GB+ of digital music)...

What about y'all?

I like a lot of JPop, but I don't listen to C/KPop. My favorite band is L'Arc~en~Ciel.

As for mainstream American music, well, I only listen to the radio in the morning, and all they do mostly is talk... I do like Linkin Park, though, and I have taken a liking to Outcast. Thats about it, though.

Switchfoot are slipping into the mainstream now, I liked a couple of their songs from the soundtrack of a movie "A Walk to Remember" which starred Mandy Moore.
