We have a real mix of people from lots of different places here, so I'm hoping to discover some new artists to listen to, or just to share our love for more known ones. What do you like, love, are into at the moment?

@Girl-from-Mars I'm going to start by guessing that maybe you are a fan of Ash? 🙂

Thought Ash was me for a second then I realised it was an artist 😆 Enjoying the new albums from Kanye and Drake at the moment. I also love to listen to dance/house music from time to time.

Ash Thought Ash was me for a second then I realised it was an artist 😆 Yep, a Northern Irish 90's band, I really like some of their tracks and I think Girl From Mats is a great song. I listen to a lot of different stuff and I do like a bit of 90's Britpop 🙂 Taking about Ash has made me think about Longpigs, so right now I'm listening to On and On, for some reason YouTube won't let me embed it but anyway: https://youtu.be/1P-oRJ-5M0A

I like country but I'm quite sure it isn't going to be a popular choice in this forum 🙂

Vilte I like country but I'm quite sure it isn't going to be a popular choice in this forum 🙂 You might be right there 🙂 It's not my thing at all really, but I know millions of people would disagree. Stasys likes blues and that doesn't excite me at all either. I'm much more a pop and disco kind of girl 😃

What music do you listen to?

Arvīds

I mostly listen to the pop and chart music on the radio, or what is just around. I do not normally buy or play music apart from that.

Ash

Arvīds I listen to a lot of pop and chart music on the radio as well. The only problem with the radio channels that I listen to is that they sometimes always play the same song frequently which becomes extremely annoying.

Piri

I am not so sure it is a type, but we have singing poetry in Lithuania, I really like it.

And just random different types that I think it's nice it can be Foo Fighters, Adele, City Owl or what ever. Of course classic like Beatles, Rolling Stones….. there is a young Lithuanian GJan that makes nice pieces.

isn't Taylor Swift considered country @Vilte Some of the last albums are really nice.

Vilte

Piri isn't Taylor Swift considered country @Vilte Some of the last albums are really nice.

Her first albums are quite country, but then she became more pop I think and I don't know what she is these days. I don't mind Taylor Swift 🙂

That sounds really interesting, do you have some examples to share?

John Today I'm in a Smashing Pumpkins kind of mood…

I didn't imagine that I liked the Smashing Pumpkins, but I do like that song, I just didn't know who it was!

Ash Friday is always a great day for some dance/house music so I always listen to that using the playlist I've created recently. Check it out if you want 😉 -

Not so sure it's my thing, but I'm going to wait until next Friday and try it and find out 😃

Ash

The only country music I have listened to has been the early ones from Taylor Swift I think. Don't think I've ever listened to any other country songs.

Piri

Julie Brooks-Girskiene That sounds really interesting, do you have some examples to share

The ones I grow up with like - Aida's Giniotis, Gediminas Storpirštis, Andrius Kaniava, even Vytautas Kernagis and Saulius Mykolaitis.

And some like Alina Orlova (she sings in English), Egle Sirvydyte, Domantas Razauskas, Rolandas Kazlas, Liūdni Slibinai, Kostas Smoriginas…..

Ash

You may not like the majority of the songs in there if you're not a fan of dance but there should be a few that seem to be more like pop songs.

Julie Brooks-Girskiene

Piri Of course I don't understand anything that they are singing yet, but I like the general sound. 🙂

John

I actually never really thought about spoken word performers, which I guess it's different to singing poetry, but when it's over music is similar a bit.

I really like Kae Tempest, they are a spoken word performer/musician/poet from the UK.

Clementine

John I never heard this before, such dark and true social commentary, I love it.

Piri

John It is a diff thing, but both of them are focusing into the world, the meaning. Usually the concerts are for quite the small audience and cozy. We have a couple of festivals as well.

John

Tonight I'm listening to this, just because sometimes decades later you remember how much you loved a song…

Piri

There is one young Lithuanian singer GJan she has some very nice music in English.

Thank you for sharing. I've only listened to a few songs so far but I like her.

Clementine

Piri There is one young Lithuanian singer GJan she has some very nice music in English.

Nice, never heard of her before.

Kyllikki Lake Jons

I like this a lot too.

This whole topic is filled of interesting things to discover. 😃

Girl-from-Mars

Piri There is one young Lithuanian singer GJan she has some very nice music in English.

It's not normally my kind of music, but I'm liking this.

Kyllikki

I listen to Finnish indie bands mostly, some of the more known ones would be are Jaakko Eino Kalevi, Satellite Stories, and Lake Jons.

Julie Brooks-Girskiene

Kyllikki More known to who 😉

I haven't hear of any of them, but I'm going to listen and learn.
