What is your go to Spotify/Pandora/satellite radio/radio station?
EDIT! I'm talking music currently. While I listen to podcasts a majority of the time, I wanna know your musical tastes!

Re: GTKY: Music
DH likes instrumental music and techno. I made him make a playlist for his car that has all his music but only songs with words lol
I was listening to a spotify premade list this morning called "Morning Motivation" and its pretty much my style
BFP: 8/11/18 Due: 4/26/18
When DH picks something else it's usually Kid Cudi or Mumford and Sons Radio (and when I'm not home, Eminem Radio).
DS doesn't seem to have much in terms of musical tastes yet, which seems odd, but he definitely likes "Everything is Awesome" by Tegan and Sara and Lonely Island and DMX.
@kosmo86 almost every Sunday am that I'm doing breakfast I put on Spotify's "Have a Great Day!" station. It's a good one!
I've been listening to my old-ass, totally un-updated ipod playlist lately which includes the following:
alkaline trio
the smiths
the secret sisters
a bunch of random 90s alternative
a handful of 90s rap/hip-hop
wu-tang clan
the beastie boys
the pixies
among a bunch of other crap
my small personal spotify playlist includes random singles from:
gin blossoms
elliott smith
jay z
pentatonix
some dinsey tunes
the barden bellas
the lumineers
destiny's child
sam smith
the carpenters
the cranberries
burl ives
my taste is all over the place. I was in a ska band in high school, to shed some light on my weirdness.
Mat Kearney
Carly Rae Jepsen
Owl City
Disney classics
Coldplay
Mumford and Sons
Imagine Dragons
Ben Rector
Those are all the ones I’ve asked Alexa to play for me recently. Haha.
Florence and the machine
Bon iver
Seinabo sey
Regina Spektor
First aid kit
Beirut
Though for dancing I like a wider set of music 😊💃

In the car it’s radio. I have a hits pop station, hip hop/r&b tbrowback, 90 & current pop, hard rock, classic rock and an alt station programmed in. I also occasionally hit the 80s station. I feel like we have pretty great radio where I’m at.
DH likes rock and metal. DD usually just likes a good beat to dance to. One time when she was a couple months old we put on Metallica: Through the Never and it put her right to sleep, lol.
I have pretty eclectic tastes. My all time favorite band is punk band Rise Against. But I also listen to everything from Metallica to Fleetwood Mac to One Direction to Rihanna to Snoop Dog to Elvis. I generally don’t really like much Country music, but there are a few I do (my actual name is from an old country song).

DH's eclectic tastes have definitely influenced our son more than I have. DS likes to sing "Shark Fighter," and other random Aquabats/ska/punk music that DH blares sometimes, haha (Ghostbusters was a hit for awhile, as well as Moana songs). But then DH will also listen to folk music/older style country at home chilling (think Johnny Cash), and horrible 80's/90's rap if he's working out. We have odd tastes.
My mom raised me on classic rock, and I still listen to a bunch, but I also enjoy:
Glass Animals
St Vincent
Vampire Weekend
Outkast
Beck (though I don’t like his new stuff
Miike Snow
Deer Tick
Kendrick Lamar
Radiohead
There’s a really good college radio station where I live, and it’s the only reason this list isn’t totally stuck in like... 2007.
Summer Hits of the 90's and Early 2000s
Soft Pop Hits
Now thats what i call music 1-68
Have a Great Day!
I also like the Discover Weekly and #ThrowbackThursday that Spotify updates weekly.
Santigold
Vampire Weekend
The Dave Matthews Band (Yes, I'm still stuck in the late 90s)
Ratatat
Miike Snow
Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros
The Temper Trap
Pink Floyd
90s R&B and Rap (love me some Dr Dre and Snoop)
I also really like 90s alternative music, but our radio stations suck here and only play top 40 music - no offense to those that like it, I'm just not a fan - and we literally have about 15 stations that play only top 40.
I'm sorry Ms. Jackson.
I listen to a lot of showtunes, Hamilton, Disney, whatever Pandora plays for me.
Just coming down from my 3m of Christmas music and feeling the hole.
My my current favorite is a band called the Gray Havens. We discovered them while healing from baby #1 3 yrs ago and there are 3 albums now and I love all of them.
#2 station: Lord Huron
#3 station: Beirut (@honey_suckle! we are the same person.)
I also love Fleet Foxes, Of Monsters & Men, Vance Joy, The Head & the Heart, The Lumineers, the old Mumford & Sons, and everything else you'd expect from the list above and/or someone stuck in 2015.
Dallas has this AMAZING radio station called 91.7 that introduced me to most of these bands, & is the only one I listen to other than classical! Pop has done nothing for me since Taylor Swift put out 1989. :P
DH and I have been really into making Spotify playlists that cover music we think LO needs to hear and a few nights a week we lay down early to play music before we fall asleep. Currently our son seems to get excited in response to Foo Fighters, The Killers, and The Beatles, which just backs up my belief that he is definitely his father's son (while I love those bands, DH loves them more). Although DH says he thinks that LO hates his music which is why he kicks/moves so who knows (he pretty much just chills while my favorites are playing).
