   I do, a lot of their songs fit in that genre, some of them were a little more pop (but I still like them). Like I said, acoustic, soft rock, then punk ska and reggae. But some of my favorite artists are: John Mayer, Ben Harper, Jack Johnson, Dave Matthews Band, Reel Big Fish, Slightly Stoopid, Authority Zero, Sublime, Snow Patrol, Jack's Mannequin, Pepper, Death Cab, Snow Patrol... oh goodness there are soooo many!

   Punk is one, ska is another. Sorry, there should have been a comma.
   Punk would be like The Clash or The Ramones. Punk came out of the 70s. But here is a newer band.
   Here's a punk band: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xFuWMXxpf5M
   
   And ska has a lot of instruments, horns etc.
   Here's a ska band:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=498JxKxO_E8
   and another example: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1YUtZ5y13o4
   
   But some can overlap with their styles. Hope that helped.

      Thanks for the links.   I think I like ska best.   David Bowie had a hand in bringing punk music into vogue, but it's morphed a bit since!  Bowie's got a few I like a lot.   Ashes To Ashes,  Golden Years.

   My son likes ragtime! He plays Scott Joplin on the keyboard all the time, I don't know of any other ragtimers. It's not like that's something that can be found in stores. He used to play classical all the time, then he heard ragtime. He also loves writing music scores for games. The music on a game is a make or break deal for him.

   Click the link, the 1st song is mine, then pick from my "play~list" on the page for more or it will switch to another artist just like a radio station would.
   
   Click on a smiley face to say you like it and that helps get it played more often. You can leave comments too. Enjoy these beautiful melodies. They are all uniquely different.
   
   52% of 1st time listeners like my music, the station tells me that the norm for new music is a 10-12% liking. Right now it is heard in 10 countries on 5 Continents.

    real Hip-hop that has poetical meaning and inspiration or even motivation. Or the songs that show a message. But forget about all the mainstream stuff that's playing these days. That's the Illuminati's fault with all the mind controlling messages. If you play some of Lil Wayne's music backwards it will be subliminal messages in it.
