Default Favorite Music?

I listen to a bunch of music, but my favorite band by far is Metallica.

Yours?

Music is one of my absolute loves in life - I'm a rock kid at heart (with you there on Metallica! But Smashing Pumpkins are my all-time fave), but love discovering new stuff, so these days I tend to listen to lots of specialist radio shows rather than any specific band. Giles Peterson on BBC Radio 1 is great for dancey Latin/world stuff, one of my current faves.

For me, being "culturally aware" is a big part of personal development. I like to be aware of different genres, and able to discuss music (as well as books, films, etc.) with people no matter what their taste. In many ways, this is a good way to be more interesting and increase one's intelligence and general knowledge.

To this end, what would everyone suggest as a "musical canon" - the essential works that everyone should be aware of in order to be a well rounded person culturally?

I agree, however, I could never "get into" some of the popular sounds of the day, like "boy band" pop, or more currently, rap and hip-hop.

I tend to rock and various rock genres, but I cannot reject any other good music that sounds good to me.
