Other than showtunes, what types of music/bands/singers do you listen to?
I listen to:
Queen
My Chemical Romance
Evanescence
Rascal Flatts
No Doubt
Chicago (also a band, just in case you didn't know)
Billy Joel
The All-American Rejects
Panic! At the Disco
I listen to other types of music, but those are really the bands/singers I listen to.
Um, mostly really bad pop music from the 80s and 90s. I love Billy Joel and Queen. And I also enjoy country...I'll come out with it.
yeah, country's pretty good too.
Rap is ok, but mostly it's not that great. Is all that cursing really necessary?
Like I should talk, some of my Broadway favs should be edited (Avenue Q-- perfect example)
80's hair metal, 90's grunge/alternative, Billy Joel, and yes I am a country girl too, no need to feel alone
Elton John
Billy Joel
Ben Folds/Ben Folds Five
ABBA
Liza Minnelli
The Beatles
No Doubt
80's wave
90's bubblegum

I listen to really random stuff. Sometimes my roommates can't believe the difference from song to song when my iTunes is on shuffle. (Good example from the other night..French pop to Guns 'N Roses.)
But I listen to mostly pop and rap, with a little bit of punk/rock thrown in. Also a lot of 90s stuff from when I was growing up and what my brother used to play for me (he was a huge influence on me musically...that's how I started listening to rap, mostly east coast and a lot of Bad Boys Records artists.)
Also, very inappropriate comedy, mostly Stephen Lynch's stuff. And I DESPISE country.

Arctic Monkeys, Belle and Sebastian, Ted Leo + Pharmacists, The Shins, The Strokes, The Dears, Laura Nyro, Joni Mitchel, Duncan Sheik, Elvis Costello, [INDIE BANDS], Audra McDonald, [SHOWTUNES]
I listen to a lot of different types of stuff. I like classical stuff like Andre Rieu and Chopin, and I also have my reggaeton, pop, oldies, 70s, 80s, early 90s on top of showtunes. The only stuff I barely listen to is heavy metal/punk/hardcore rock, rap, country, and opera.
I LIKE RUSH O'REILLY GELN BECK SAVAGE AND SOMEOTMES LYYNNRD SKYYNNERD
Recently I have been listening to a lot of R&B/Soul/Hip-Hop. John Legend is top on my list right now. I love the 80's music. Kylie Minogue will always be on top for me.

Nothing... is that bad?
Sometimes I listen to Broadway performers's solo albums.
No, I listen to Broadway performer's cds sometimes too. I used to listen to nothing else too, but I got interested in my friends favorites and my mom's favorites. :)
Mostly (almost exclusively) classical music of all periods...I don't go in much for what these whippersnappers are listening to these days.
I do occasionally have a late 80's/early 90's diva moment and bust out some Whitney or Mariah, though. But only when I'm feeling punchy.
I love Billy Joel, Jack Johnson, Franz Ferdinand and Matt Caplan's solo CD. I have plenty of other non-showtunes that I listen to, but those are the main four.
