What kind of music/which artists are we liking right now?

I'm compiling a list of everyone's most liked (and unliked) bands, singers, songs, albums etc. If you're wanting to post here, I'd like it if you'd fill in the following:

Favourites - song, song at the moment (as in something that you've recently come across), and the same thing with albums. For artists: male singer, female singer, band and 'other' (people like Fedde le Grand and the Chemical Brothers come under 'other') and use the 'at the moment' thing for each of these

As for least favourites, use all the same categories

    My favourites, well kind of... I've tried to mix it up... my actual favourite song charting right now is probably 'Sex on Fire' (Kings of Leon)... but everyone already knows that song, ey

    song: To Build A Home - the Cinematic Orchestra
    aussie song: Teenager of the Year - Lo-Tel
    song at the moment:  The Way You Want It or The Happy Soldier - Keane (love some of their early pre-album stuff - Little Broken Words)
    album: OK Computer - Radiohead (even though it doesn't feature my fav song by them)
    aussie album: Something for Kate - Echolalia
    album at the moment: Oracular Spectacular - MGMT
    male artist: beck
    male singer: Damien Rice
    male artist at the moment: Daniel Snaith (Caribou), based on vocal talent though Patrick Watson
    female artist: kimya dawson (thanks to Juno)
    female singer: Lisa Hannigan (for her work with Damien Rice), otherwise Dolores O'Riordan (the Cranberries)
    female artist at the moment: Emily Haines (Metric)
    song by female at the moment: My Moon My Man - Feist, was Paper Planes -M.I.A. (prob the remix feat. lil wayne)
    artist most featured on my ipod: modest mouse
    band: the Strokes, (Red Hot Chili Peppers are perhaps my all time fav however)
    band at the moment: Bell X1 
    other: Girl Talk (if compared with the rest it's definately other)
    favourite compilation: Help! - A Day in the Life (i have canadian version), also music from the original few THPS games
    secret interest: death cab for cutie
    key exclusions: fatboy slim - right here, right now; powderfinger - my kind of scene; Clubbed To Death (Kurayamino Variation) - Robert Dougan, etc...........

    least fav:
    artists: anything emo, or just plain whiny; the stuff that some people refer to as pop-punk; which is what emo has become
    eg. simple plan, all-american rejects, my chemical romance, panic at the disco, the stuff i liked 4 years ago (well some of it); when i was in year 7; not that i've ever been in that crowd
    song: Katy Perry - I Kissed a Girl (from the moment it first came on the radio to the moment my friends stopped singing it)
    aussie song: Nikki Webster - Strawberry Kisses (for anyone with young girls below the age of 10 - though it could be a bad influence)
    compilation: high school musical (just because i've been victim of watching a re-inactment of it)

    okay so there are way too many groups... but narrowing it this far down was hard enough (i could name far more if anyone was interested; or not) ... ha this list is a little embarrasing for me... hopefully just a little?!?

    Susie Suh is kicking it for me right now, maybe due to the weather.  She sings her songs exactly like a person who has experienced it.  I think she is cool.  Her version to Bob Dylan's "Don't Think Twice" is for real.  I have noticed that the men who cover this song play it faster and when the women sing it is significantly slower.  Hmmmm...wonder why?

    * Phil Wickham-"Cannons" He has a voice like a cannon and writes songs that Bono would be proud of and his message (Christian) puts me in a real good frame of mind. I met him in Raleigh, NC after the show and he was super nice and spent time with everybody who was in line. Good guy!

    * Collective Soul-everything rocks especially the new stuff "Afterwords" coool! 

    * Victor Jara- I just got turned on to this man, who lived a wonderful but short and tragic life.  His music had meaning and purpose and it is beautiful.  His message is timeless.

    *Allman Brothers Band-"Southbound" my favorite song from them. The music stands by itself but the lyrics just make me smile.

    Fleetwood Mac, Eagles (no comment necessary), U2, The Muse is cool, Fiona Apple, Andrea Bocelli, Enrique Iglesias ( i want just a little bit of what he's got, what ever that is.  lol), Madaleine Peyroux (smooth) and Rob Thomas (absolutely got it going on).  Many others, many many others but we'll talk to you later. :-) lee
