From classical to trance, via prog rock, punk, electronica and even shallow chart music.

The only music I don't really like is rap, country and western and atonal/dischordant modern classical noise.

Scissor Sisters<---->Moonsorrow. I mostly listen to power metal, industrial, Visual Kei and goth rock though (and the last two genres are best merged together IMO). I also like a bit of electronic and punk.

Mine is quite varied. I like pop and r 'n' b best but I also like some rock and indie music (but I hate screamo) and I think classical music is often very beautiful.

I think mine is pretty diverse. I would consider The Beatles, Miley Cyrus (yes, Miley Cyrus ), Kings of Leon, Taylor Swift and Coldplay to be my favourite artists, with lots in between.

I'm into nearly everything. From classical to industrial metal, pop to rap, dance to punk you name it I will probably like it.

Some artists I may hate but I will still listen to and respect their work.

Mine goes from the Who to Yaz to Johnny Cash to Blur to the Klaxons. Funniest thing is when I have my Ipod on shuffle and something like the Arctic Monkeys is followed by Frank Sinatra!

I like anything from stuff in the charts like Britney, Girls Aloud, Beyoncé, to clubland style songs, I love loads of country music, old and new, I like rap, I love Frank Sinatra, Etta James, Tina Turner and a lot of other older stuff, plus Oasis and britpop, and some (but not all) indie music in the charts in recent years.

I think it's pretty varied, there isn't a particular style I hate or wouldn't listen to if the song was good.

I have a contradiction in what music I like.

I have an eclectic taste but a limited library.

It's because I like music which does *something* to me. It has to usually be creative or different (in a good way... not just pretentious mush).

For example, I love Skunk Anansie but I also love Sigur Rós. Two different acts. However, I seem to favour female vocals to male ones, except when it comes to British Indie music (which I only like a few bands of anyway).

I like just about everything in music. Very little I don't like.

My taste stretches from the simple sublimeness of Greogrian Chant to the rinky-dink ridiculousness of Scooch.

Can't see much evidence of 'varied' music taste on this thread.

Seems to me most people are listening to Westernised popular music styles (mainly of British & American origin) from the last 50 years.

Considering there are about 190-200 countries in the world, each having 100-2000 years of history behind them, confining oneself to music produced in the last 50 years from predominately 2 countries doesn't strike me as varied.
