IF I were to bring 6 CDs into the car they'd probably be from movies (like Forest Gump) because then I get a smattering of songs and I have quite a few of those. Hmm...a list??

Golden Earring Twilight Zone and Moontan. ;>

Golden Earring....I remember them!

truthfully if I've got 6 CD's in the car with me... they aren't music ones they are either self-improvement or leadership CD's. 

Radio wise it could range from country, classic rock, top 40's, christian or retro.  Pretty much anything but R&B rap type stuff.  Just depends on the mood.

Currently in the truck:

Zephyr: Going Back to Colorado

Jonny Lang: Wander This World

Pat Coast & Out of the Blue: Play Somethin' We Can Dance To

Taylor Harvey Band: GeezerFest '06

Susan Tedeschi: Better Days

Cherri & The Violators: Processed American Blues Product

I'm a big station flipper and now that we have Sirius Satellite Radio in the car, I'm loving that.  I usually keep it on the current hits station but occasionally like something different like easy listening or country.  What I listen to depends on how loud my kids are being in the car too. 

Lately I've been mostly listening to our local talk radio station.  If you're not familiar with the Detroit area, we have a major scandal going on with our mayor.  I love listening to all the news about him, especially comments from the local citizens and business people.

I also enjoy listening to Mark Levin.  His demeanor and rudeness to clueless people crack me up.  My husband thinks I'm crazy for listening to him but he makes me laugh. 

1. The Forgien Exchange/Leave It All Behind (The modern MASTERPIECE.....It gets better with every listen)!!!!
2. Depeche Mode / Violator (CLASSIC Mode)
3. Anita Baker / Rhythm Of Love (Easy,Breazy,BEAUTIFUL)!
4. Marvin Gaye / Hear My Dear (Love gone wrong....music done right)!
5. New Order / The Best Of..(Long live the 80's)

Over the years, I have downloaded hundreds and hundreds of songs then burn them as mp3s onto a disk.  I have 3 cds in my car right now.  They are mostly "oldies" (from the 50's and 60's) and some old country songs.  I should have been born earlier because I would have loved doing the jitterbug growning up....the Beatles really never did anything for me.

I absolutely love to get down on the dance floor.  It's a huge release for me and I have been told that I'm a really good dancer.  Generally, the type of music that makes me shake my groove thang is old-school pop, rap, and r&b from the 80's and 90's.  But the CD I have in my car is the antithesis of all that:  KISS Unplugged! 

Santana - "Black Magic Woman"

The Byrds playing Bob Dylan songs

Harry Chapin

Louis Armstrong

Frank Zappa  

 Right now I don't remember the other groups cds in the car. The first four are mine and the rest belong to my husband.

I can't listen to music "on-the-go" anymore.  The car broke down.  :(  :(

However, if someone calls my cell phone while out on the bicycle - my cell phone rings (I Can't Get No) Satisfaction!   :)  :)

I JUST listened to LeAnne Rimes singing Amazing Grace on YouTube. I really never noticed her - what a voice.

eh, you mean is other music besides George Strait and Bob Wills??  I just finished listening to "Milk Cow Blues!"  :)

Those are all great!...

I listen to all sorts of music; hip hop, rock, classical, metal, etc.

right now i am listening to flurs de mal from sarah brightman.

I love music.  I sing at local events and church and I do classical ballet so music is a BIG part of my life.

Since Brannigan passed away I haven't quit listening to Mark Harris' CD: The Line Between the Two.  If you are familiar with contemporary Christian music; he was the lead singer for the group 4-Him and then went solo.  I will try to do a review on the CD this weekend. 

I have been listening to the music CD's Gigi made me lately. I now have the music on my iPod so I don't have to change the CD's in and out. Oh, the music is christian and southern gospel. Believe me, Gigi has a beautiful singing voice. ;-)

Thanks for the compliment on my singing--it's only by the grace of God that I can sing as well as I do and I like to think that a lot of it is because I use music to glorify Him.  Please pray that I can get through the performance next month at the children's home.  Brannigan was supposed to come and see me perform.  The only time he ever heard me sing was the few times he visited church with me and we did the congregational songs and the times when us dancers were being silly during practices; especially after we all saw the Hannah Montana movie. 

I will pray for you. I remember you telling me about your upcoming singing performance. Brannigan will be watching you perform from heaven.

I own more than 200 CDs, but I find that I usually keep the same ones in my car for listening purposes. I change them out every now and then, but the artists I listen to most while cruising are the Rolling Stones, Guided by Voices, Allman Brothers, J. Geils Band, Buddy Guy, and Bob Marley.

I have 4 binders with 100 CDs each in them in the truck, but, like Bryan, I tend to listen to most of the same few.  I LOVE my mix CDs.

I also have over 300 CDs but I tend to take my own by selecting my favorite tracks from CDs and putting them onto a blank CD.  That's what I did when I gave Krista the CDs the other week.

Mike is my musical muse here at Viewpoints.  I think he and I are the ones that do a lot of the music reviews.   

I am listening to Pandora online... good stuff.
