What MUSICAL ARTIST/GROUP has made the biggest impact in your life?

Question

Were you impacted just by hearing them or by seeing them live? How/why does their music move you?

This can include any genre of music and from any era.

Answer 1

Olivia Newton John
She has done so much and she had cancer like I did. I love her music and she is really a great person. I feel bad that she lost her b/f, but life goes on and so does she.

Answer 2

Actually, the Grateful Dead. Since being introduced to their music, I have been moved to actually learn everything I possibly could about them and musicians that were part of their movement. I've gone to strings of shows at a time (mini tours) and traveled all over and seen some amazing cities because of them. It really changed the way I look at the quality of travel--(I love road trips now, and I love to stop at every ma & pa knick knack tour shop/diner or roadside attraction I can squeeze in) Their music has branched my interests into other genres of music as well--such as bluegrass and more traditional folk, and their lyrics and music really make me happy. It's also opened me up to a different lifestyle and community of people I never knew much about. They really have made a pretty big impact...good question.

Answer 3

Music in general has an impact on me.
I can't really say which has had the biggest impact because it really depends on my mood. I've probably listened to Pearl Jam the most when I have been down or up. But then I get into Pink Floyd moods or Led Zep moods or Johnny Cash moods or The Cure moods or Sublime moods or Jack Johnson moods or Violent Femme moods.
The list could go on and on and I feel bad leaving so many out.

Keith Urban has changed my life forever. Both professionally and personally, I admire him. He has been through some tough times and risen above them, not only that but his life experiences have made his music all the more passionate and meaningful and driven. There is nothing in the world like seeing Keith perform live, he puts his heart and soul into every show and he LOVES his fans. He's an all-round wonderful person, and I would love to be his PR gal!!

PearlJam because they were one of the first bands that really had a song about something, i used to listen to only pop but after them i discovered grunge and rock and everything like that and their lyrics are easy to relate to for me, BetterMan is my favorite song
