I'm a child of the 80's. Most of the music I like is from that era: Baltimora, Opus, Blue Clocks Green, R.E.M., Elvis Costello, Joe Jackson, Nick Lowe, Pet Shop Boys, Erasure, The Cure, etc. My second favorite era would be the 90's: They Might Be Giants, Barenaked Ladies, 10,000 Maniacs, etc. I've done a lot of DJing over the years so I've become quite varied and flexible in my listening tastes. A fun band that I found online - Hermes House Band. They play some really rockin' covers of some classics that you can't help but tap your feet to. These days, I'll pretty much listen to anything except for metal or hardcore rap. If you ever get into podsafe music, check out Brother Love, they are an awesome band.
