I've got a really eclectic taste in music, I grew up listening to Motown, 60's, Cliff Richard and old Country and Western, courtesy of my mum, and my ex-step-dad had a tape called 'Hooked on Classics' which was sort of classical music for the plebs. From this, I've gotten into classical music in a big way, and have a large collection. I rebelled against the constant diet of Cliff, and got into rock - Metallica, Guns 'n' Roses, Bon Jovi, Def Leppard, but would still go for some Motown or 60's stuff every now and then.
Now it's Meat, alternative music like The Killers, Razorlight, Sandi Thom, Alanis Morrisette, K.T. Tunstall... in fact, I'll pretty much listen to anything except Jazz (although I do a like a bit of Nina Simone) and 70's Glam Rock, and I've never been into opera. Don't mind the musicals though, my mate has the soundtrack to 'Passion' which is worth a listen, and one of my favourites was and still is Jeff Wayne's War of the Worlds.
Current favourite album? Bat III of course... Current favourite non-Meat album? Nickelback - Silver Side Up
