Music that transports me and is unique. I care more about texture and rhythm than melody or harmony. Electronic sounds usually appeal to me.

I'm guessing it was "shit".

Pop aesthetic: harmonies, hooks, melody. Also, layered and textured sound. And great rhythm. I like most things, but psychedelic rock and pop, shoegaze, Madchester, dreamy electronica, '70s punk and hooky guitar pop and rock tend to be my favourites. But I'm always looking for something new and different...experimental music like Captain Beefheart and Glenn Branca is a lot of fun to listen to. I can listen to and find something to enjoy in almost anything (as long as the lyrics aren't bigoted).

But ultimately, an immediately catchy and memorable three-minute pop song (whether the Beach Boys, Teenage Fanclub or Sex Pistols) is my first love.

I'm guessing that's way more than 140 characters.

Oh, I misread. I thought 140 words. My mistake, sorry.

I love anything with soul, or a reason behind it, raw stuff, mostly older stuff, because it's a bit more real to me without an alterior motive (out to make a buck, etc).

Anything from 80's hair metal to electro funk. But, some songs are annoying. Basically anything that isn't Rap or Country (a few exceptions.)

music that moves my soul, talks to me, shakes me reinvents me.

There are too many exceptions. I hate country but love the first John Prine album. I hate bloated, pompous rock but love Who's Next. I don't care for dance music but like New Order. Etc.
