Discuss: Who is YOUR favorite band?!

Who is YOUR favorite band?

Take your time. This is a tough one. Personally, I don't think I can pick one favorite. I can just name a few I like a lot. I like to listen to a variety of music ranging from Rock, Alternative, Metal, Country, Oldies, Pop, and Contemporary. (pretty screwed up list, huh?) I have been to dozens of concerts, ranging from outdoor Warped Tour to smaller venues with local bands. One of my favorites was an A Day to Remember concert, they came out with toilet paper guns and shot them into the crowd while exploding confetti everywhere. It was so fun!

So, I wanted to share a few honorable mentions of my favorites bands.

Blink-182

With songs like Feeling This, I Miss You, Another Girl Another Planet, Dammit, M+M, What's My Age Again, and The Rock Show, how could you not like them?!
I have not seen them live...yet.

21 Pilots

Disclaimer: I fully expect my brother to comment on this.
You see, he showed me this band earlier on and I wasn't too impressed. However, when I met @alovelymess I learned it is her favorite band. I gave them a second chance and I now love them! Some of my favorites being Heathens, Car Radio, Fairly Local, Semi Automatic, Guns for Hands, Stressed Out, Heavydirtysoul, and Ride.

Bowling For Soup

source

I recently started listening to them even though they've been around for awhile, and they are one of my favorites. Some of the best songs being 1985, Ohio (Come Back to Texas), Almost, Everything to Me, Punk Rock 101, No Hablo Ingles, and High School Never Ends.

The Beatles

source

Of course they made it to the list! If you have a pulse, you've heard of The Beatles! I grew up with my Dad listening to them and continue to listen to them today. It's one of the bands that never goes out of style. Some of my favorites (along with everyone else's) include A Hard Day's Night, Hey Jude, Let It be, Come Together, We Can Work It Out, I Want To Hold Your Hand, and All You Need Is Love.

More mentions I would include is Boston, Linkin Park, Zac Brown Band, Home Free, ZZ Top, Close Your Eyes, 3 Doors Down, Green Day, and more I will think of after I hit post.

I LOVE getting feedback! Do you have suggestions or comments on how to improve my posts? If so, post them below, I want to hear from you!

Hey cool post!

I absolutely LOVE The Beatles, mostly their more mature albums, like Sgt Pepper, White Album, Magical Mystery Tour and Abbey Road.

I also like The Cure, The Doors, Pink Floyd and of course... Queen ;)

Have a good day @drobinson !

This is hard. I love all the bands you mentioned. I would say 3 Doors Down is my favorite out of the bands you listed.

My favorite band is Pink Floyd if I had to choose. They are both kind of crazy, but I like that about them.

Cheers. Thanks for you post.

3 Doors Down is fantastic!

I know some of Pink Floyd's stuff, they're pretty good as well! A tad on the weird side like you mentioned.

Thanks!

@drobinson just saw your other post about deruny's lmao, i'm also a Ukrainian like your wife and can relate to how awesome those are lol

you're right, it's hard to name just one band, this is i think where the true beauty of music lies... in its variety

But to name just one it would have to be a band that's truly special, even though i don't listen to those cats anymore but Led Zeppelin was my first band crush and i don't think i'll ever be as hardcore of a fan of anyone else like i was of theirs....except for my own band ;D gotta love yourself haha

much love

Though one!

I would have to go for Talking Heads.

Love the sound of the band. The mix of rock, disco and pop is brilliant. Was fortunate enough to see David Byrne live. His show was awesome. A mix of old classics and his newer stuff 50/50.

One of my favourite songs with them is the very relaxed song: This must be the place.

I also like Panic at the Disco! It's hard not to sing along to I Write Sins, Not Tragedies. Paramore is also great! I haven't listened to much Mumford and Sons however.
