As an avid youtube user this is one of my favourites:

It could be music, or tv recordings or radio etc.

Early Dylan songs take me right back to Uni days and make me cry smile

Love the Summertime one Fennel and Canned Heat - what a blast from the past!

I love Karine Polwart's 'Follow the heron home' and in the days when I could sing, was part of my repertoire.

I always say I don't like music, I don't own any CDs and never play it but I love singing and some live folk music

Darius Rucker for me too HildaJenniJ We saw him in concert last month and his was amazing ! My favourite is “I’m going straight to hell” The YouTube video is very good. No time to do a link as I’m dashing......

Pure music from Two steps from hell
Yeah, I just love this!

Fennel... that's so funny. Good old Spike Milligan

Ooh Ry Cooder! Good memories.

I'm not keen on Country and Western but I like Darius Rucker.

Fennel Mon 25-Jun-18 19:37:04

I've looked up Ry Cooder - quite an education for me!
When I need a laugh this is good:

I'm listening to Ry Cooder at the moment

Currently listening to Dido. I bought the CD from a poundshop. They have lots of different albums by famous singers etc, all reconditioned for just £1 ! Bargain. In between, I also listen to Tears for Fears, and Depeche Mode.

Mostly I listen to Italian pop music, but also love Country and am very keen on Il Divo. In fact, DD3 and I are going to see them live in Amsterdam on Sunday. A birthday treat for me.?

Jane grin I had fogotten about this thread.
Not listening to anything at the moment, but the last thing was Borodin quartet no 2 which was the inspiration for the themes from The King and I.

I'm listening to my newly purchased Dyson cool fan. Lovely!

Greyduster Mon 25-Jun-18 13:54:39

William Walton's first symphony. Very dramatic.

Ed Sheeran and Lionel Richie, we are hoping to see Lionel live

I listen on U-tube everyday to the opera Carmen with Jonas Kaufman as Don Jose.

Fennel Mon 11-Jun-18 21:23:09

So much variety - I don't know much about folk/rock but like this one, connected to our recent homeless travels:

A new local folk band called Folky MacFolkface ,good original tunes and lyrics and very pleasant voices

Willow500 Mon 11-Jun-18 20:55:33

Hmm - watched an entire set from Bullet for My Valenine on YouTube last night and loving Greeta Van Fleet at the minute grin

kittylester Mon 11-Jun-18 20:50:21

Currently. I'm loving stuff by Clean Bandit, The Shires and Ed Sheeran.

I'm listening to country music as performed by Darius Rucker. If you are a country fan then he's worth listening to. This track is my favourite at the moment, but it changes often.
