What of country music

Few Nigerians enjoy and listen to it. Lovers of Country music are not different from Blues fans

No country music?

@OP I love rock, Blues, Country, rap/hip hop and the Nigerian 'konto' music....where does that place me?

dolly parton and kenny rogers are my best country musicians....but I kinda like Tim McGraw as well

My fav rock musicians vary. I love Evanescence, Linkin Park, Greenday, Fall Out Boy, Avril Lavigne, Kelly Clarkson(when she does rock), Paramore and Daughtry

With Blues, I'm all about Frank Sinatra

Avirl lavigne is nice sha.
is the band perry a rock artist? they are really nice.
I don't do much blues it evokes unnecessary feeling.
Try listen to Imagine Dragon, on top of the world. you will be wowed.

I listen to hip hop most of the tym esp the foreign ones. The genres of music I listen to determines the mood that I am in at that point in tym. But I dislike rock, can't decipher what they are saying.

I feel the band perry are some form of hybrid of rock and country music eg if I die young was more country than rock IMO

OMG, can't believe this skipped my mind, I'm a hardcore P!NK fan till forever....I'll check out Imagine Dragon....

You should try Frank Sinatra's The Way You Look Tonight and Fly Me To The Moon, those are great blues songs that are kinda jazzy

the only gospel musician I'm into for now is Frank Edwards, except someone is mixing up gospel with rock in an amazing way, I'm not likely to be into it anytime soon

Gospel Rock's nice and Hillsong (obviously's your fav. That sort of makes two/3 if u add Adaobi) Although some of Chris Tomlin's songs do get me there me on occasions.
Kim's very nice too and really has this grace of getting you to your depths although I dont know her husband.
This Lady that sang "Desert Song/Song of d Desert", she's really great too. All in all,the whole Hillsong crew rock and I jst pray God keeps them one!

I Came across Coldplay late last year and they were ok(no Cursing, Etc.) but I've always liked passenger n blunt.
But u can hardly go wrong with Hillsong, Maybe Cos Of their Spirit-feeding angle(if U Get Me).

I Wouldn't Say There're quite a Number Of People Who Enjoy Them, Although I agree they're obviously not in the majority. Btw Does Anybody Enjoy Heavy-metal? (with The Satanism n all)

No i haven't

I really love those guys!

Hmmmm i have a long way to go and i know it.

As they say, its not how far! you have a better grasp of their songs than I can hope to ever do. I dont know their lyrics back to back (my bad, Read ur "REBIRTH". I just kind of got piqued when I saw an Esanmite who loves Hillsong. Their Songs're Evergreen and one'll likely get you stuck."All I need Is You" was what got me.
U mind sharing yours?

Like an avanlanche, most times it brings me to my feet.

Rapmoney:
The songs people listen to or prefer to listen to, can greatly show you their nature (the type of person they are). This covers how they reason, their level of intelligence, class, financial status and so on. Hehehe :

1) Rock Music: Hmmm...I admire Nigerian babes that love and listen to rock music. They are mostly intelligent, smart, exposed, enlightened and social. The guys? They are mostly intelligent too and cool. Unfortunately, there are few peeps that love rock music in this part of the world we reside. Most of them could possibly come from (not necessarily rich) comfortable homes. They are mostly educated.

2) RnB/Blues: Most people who listen to and love RnB/Blues are very emotional. The guys are mostly emotionally soft and the gurls? They could fantasize a lot about love and romance, especially, when they are in their teens!

3) Hiphop/Rap: People who listen to hiphop and rap music are likely to be intelligent. Though, it depends on the type of hiphop or rap song. If it is 'real' hiphop where meaningful stuffs are said, something like 'Hope' by Twista and Faith Evans or 'I Tried' by Bone Thugs and Akon, then such peeps are likely to be intelligent. But if it is songs from dudes like 2Chainz and the likes, there's high possibility that they are dull and only concerned with flexing, drinking, partying, etc. Their interest in academics is mostly low (if they are students)!!!

4) Konto Music: Chai!!! Na here u go see all kind of dance...suo, garala, cutlass, convulsion, slowpoke, electric shock This na pure ghetto music. Peeps who love, enjoy and listen to these songs are mostly from the ghetto where they smoke w**d like no man's business They have no interest in academic and scholastic stuffs. Before u know wetin dey happen, u go hear 'I want to touch your miniminipopopo' (Raymond King, I hail o!)

5) The Regular Naija Dancehall: Most times, I don't even know where to classify such songs into. Why? All they say is rubbish and pure rubbish!!! **Ur bum bum dey make me dey maga...I fit spend my whole money for ur head**i fit die on top ur matter**Ur bum bum bigger than bombay**(what does this trash mean by the way?) Peeps who listen to such songs all the time are mostly empty upstairs! They find it difficult to pick philosophical lines; they love and enjoy mediocrity because the lyrics in such songs are mostly easy to cram, shallow, empty and very ordinary! Girls who love and listen to such songs always are mostly dull; the only 2 things they are good at are opening their legs for every Tomide, Dike and Haruna and to look for men that will spend on them Ndi ara!!! Lele lekwe han!

6) Raggae: Shuo! Na wa o! How person go dey listen to raggae music from morning to night for Naija, den u go come tell me say nor be kporist (weed smoker ) Peeps who love and listen to raggae too much are usually wee wee takers. They are mostly found in slums and ghettos too, or face me-I-face you house After taking like 3 wraps, they step down with their raggae songs that mostly talk about suffering, bad government and freedom...the next thing u go hear from one of dem mouth na: 'O boy, as I just dey go for road now, I come see 2 million pick' U dey crase? Dem dey troway 2 million naira for ground just like dat?

Pls, take note that there are exceptions to the list posted above. Abeg, make una nor crucify me o! Na base on observation o!

Op u think only listening to inspirational songs especially wen pertaining to rap means one is intelligent, a lot of things in a song awes a thick rap /music lover such as punchlines, word play, the flow, the delivery and even the voice etc
Format dat reasoning

egbedore:
Jazz and Blue eyes soul wasn't included? Why?

Possible causes of this anomaly:

1. oversight
2. O.P's Myopia.
