Could be anything from Pavarotti to ZZ Top, from George Jones to Frank Sinatra, from Glenn Miller to The Beatles. I like almost all kinds of music. In my younger days I spent almost 20 years as the lead singer and bass player in a country band. Variety is the spice of life :-)

I love to listen to music while I'm sewing, especially when I have the entire house to myself. I have an entire seclection on my computer called "mood music" It's easy listening, Yanni, Tim Janis and many more.

That's me!

I live in a small town and I just turn on the local radio station and listen--hear the news,birthdays and obituaries!
You know, make sure I am still here! Ha!

me too. I like to listen to spy thrillers and murder mysteries. But if I'm calculating, sometimes I turn off the CD player for a few minutes, to avoid mistakes (learned by experience :cry: )

I have this problem too...I get caught up into it... if I am doing something that requires a lot of thought, Enya, or Loreena McKennit or Roxy Music is nice... If I don't have to think so much Black 47, Pink Floyd or Def Leppard work well...

And of course, all would be liberally sprinkled with Billy Joel, Elton John and Bruce!
