I grew up in the 80's and like the music from than, but i really love swing music. my grandmothe used to tell me about dancing to it when she younger and how much fun it was. I also have a huge crush on Gene Kelly. My friends think i am weird, but i just love him. such a handsom man he was. I guess you can say i have a "old" soul.

Gene Kelly is amazing! As well as swing music! I want to relive the roaring 20's one day.

My parents always had the jazz and swing of the thirty's & forty's on the radio and record player when I was growing up so I developed a taste for GOOD music at an early age.
I enjoy everything from classical to gospel rap with the exception of heavy metal (sounds like someone torturing a guitar) and most rap (the language and subject matter of most rap music? are a bit offensive to me).
EDIT: kissimme I just noticed your avatar LOL I love it!!!!

Oh yes. I like Glenn Miller music. Too bad about his death so young.
And my favorite Gene Kelly movie, Singin' in the Rain was on TCM a few days ago. I taped it.

Swing and Big Band music is quite enjoyable.
Gene Kelly was a magnificent actor and a terrific hoofer. Too bad his skills as a director never came to fruition

Maybe, I did like Brian Setzer Orchaestra's Zoot, Zoot, Riot back in the day. But most of the mainstreamed music is very pop, rock, or hip hop influenced so I listen to that mostly.

I love swing music, but I get melancholy whenever I listen to it even to the depths of depression.

I love most music. Rap is not music and country is a little too sad but still listen to all kinds.
