It's hard to pick one. Currently on heavy rotation on my Spotify:
Amon Amarth
Lamb of God
Slayer (duh)
Ghost
Pantera
Rammstein
The Acacia Strain
Gwar
Sometimes I pepper in some Weird Al here and there.

Yeah, I like some new wave stuff. Which reminds me, one of my favorite musicians who was popular in the 80s was Enya (remember "Sail Away"?). I don't really hear much about Enya these days, but she released a new album a few years ago. I bought it, and I think it's pretty good.

I have some friends in Brazil, and I mentioned Weird Al to one of my friends there, who said she hadn't heard of him.

I tend to like classic rock, 80s, soft rock, and some techno. It's hard to choose one favorite, but these are some bands/musicians I like (in no particular order):
Dire Straits / Mark Knopfler
The Beatles
Paul McCartney
George Harrison
Pink Floyd
Edie Brickell
Norah Jones
Kraftwerk
The Doobie Brothers
Rush
Paul Simon
I could name more.. And there are various one-off hits I like too..

I think my favorite from him has to be either "Eat it" or "Amish Paradise". When I lived in New Mexico, there was a morning show that used to play his song "Albuqerque" every morning when they came on the air. I got sick of it very quickly. I saw an interview he did where he said he wrote it in an attempt to "annoy everyone listening for 11 minutes." I think he suceeded. ;-)
The doobie brothers and rush.... yes.... what about little river band, steely dan?
My favorite singer is a toss up between Rob Halford of Priest, and Ronnie James Dio. Dio might have the best voice of all time. Rob might have the best range.

RJD has such depth to his voice, though - amazing singer.
I've been listening to older metal and noting some of the more
impressive singers. Old Geoff Tate from Queensryche was one, Jay
Gillen from Badlands on "Dreams in the Dark" is pretty amazing,
and Graham Bonnet in Alcatrazz was a favorite of mine. He passed
away way too soon.
Re-listening to that album after many years makes me realize how
much Ozzy's sound relied on Jake E. Lee's guitar sound. Sad that
he got screwed over by the Osbournes.

I bet you'd recognize a couple of their songs if you heard them... They've been around since mid-70's, and are still touring today (obviously with some personnel changes but they still sound the
same).
Some of their bigger hits were: Lonesome Loser, Reminiscing, and
It's A Long Way There.

I looked up those songs on YouTube. I didn't recognize them.. Definitely sounds like 70s though.
I also enjoy early VH. There's a raw energy to it. I also like the Van Hagar era because I feel Sammy's writing and playing skills contributed to the sound more than Dave did. I got the impression that when Dave didn't get his way, he went to their manager and they teamed up on Eddie and Alex.

Oh Come on. You've never listened to the radio if you haven't heard "Reminicing"
Check again https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P5RDn5Y0D_0
That's the same Reminiscing I found yesterday.. I still don't recognize it. I listened to the radio a lot, but maybe the stations I listened to didn't play it.

My latest (ongoing) metal indulgence is Devin Townsend. I don't know anyone who's done anywhere near the latitude of work he's done, and I think his voi is getting better.

Concur on the best voice of all time - "The Reverend" Ronnie James
Dio. Almost unbelieveable what he could do. My favorite metal
singer/band, no question. Favorite song by him - "Strange
Highways".

My close second on favorite metal is Iron Maiden. After that it's
a long way down to third place.

Ozzy was never one of my favs, always thought he (and Sabbath)
were highly over-rated.

I'm sure you've heard LRB songs but just probably didn't know it was them. You've heard "Reminicsing", "Cool Change", "Lonesome Loser", "Lady" ?
For dinner music, we've been seeding Pandora with 70s bands like Pablo Cruise, LRB, Seals and Crofts... makes for good hanging-out music.
Ozzy's voice is so unique, he'll always be an interesting standout. Black
agreed... And the song Cool Change is probably the most iconinc "Yacht Rock" song of all time...
I saw badlands with tesla and great white in Tampa Florida. It was a great show. badnlands live stole the show to be honest.

My favorite band is Judast Priest. But Only 1969-1996 JP.
My favorite singer is a toss up between Rob Halford of Priest, and Ronnie James Dio. Dio might have the best voice of all time. Rob might have the best range.
I obviously prefer rock/metal.
But don't for a second think I'm limited to that...
Pop wise i think Prince's B SIDES lp might be one of the most under rated LP s of all time, showcasing is writing, arrangement and singing abilities like no other regular releases of his could do.
PS Spooky Tooth was a heck of a band

the band said what really happened with the cowbell was pretty close to the skit. i dont know how snl came up with bruce dickenson.
christopher walken is amazing in anything he does so it's good they were finally able to do the skit with him hosting the show. that was back when SNL was funny.

I haven't watched SNL very much in years.
I think around 2005, they started releasing DVD sets of entire SNL seasons. think they only released the first 2 or 3 seasons though, before running int licensing issues with the live music content and such. I was hoping they'd keep releasing those DVD sets - I would have bought much of the late 80s through the 90s. I imagine they probably have all that footage sitting in closets somewhere..
