What music does your system listen to?

Today we find ourselves listening to classical violin while working on 5 different projects. We are doing content creation on all of our different platforms, while editing 2 different websites, and working on 3 different crafts, and stalking our Amazon Package in real time. There is other actual housework that needs to be done ATM, but this is where we find ourselves.

Do you find that depending on who is fronting that the choice of entertainment changes or does your system have a set "go to" that is enjoyed?

"its different tastes per alter, but in a broad sense rock and metal genres. and historically I've built a huge playlist for driving that always has led to a bunch of "nah not in the mood for this classic rock/alternative rock/rock music in general. my alters and i all like different genres of rock music but collectively rock music is the go to

My alters K and L communicate primarily through music. There is the good:

"Hold her, and keep her strong, while I'm away from here." (REM, Green, untitled 11th song)

The not so good:

"Hey man, I'm makin' moves, and I am so much stronger than you" (REM, recited by Michael Stipe on Tourfilm just before "I Believe")

And the scary:

"I'm your dream, make you real, I'm your eyes when you must steal..." (Metallica, Sad But True)

For the past several days, we have also had the theme song to a throwaway '80s cartoon called "Jayce and the Wheeled Warriors"

"There's a power that comes from deep inside of you...and its a long, long road ahead of you, but when your wheels get you there, things will turn out right"

Good question."

"Classic rock, alternative rock, death/thrash/nu/black/symphonic metal, emo music, post rock, Turkish rock, Russian rock, goth music, Japanese rock, pop, indie, sometimes rap, greek rock, classical music, French music, Islamic hymns (because we have a Muslim woman)."

"Ghost appreciates classical music. i (matt) listen to just about everything under the sun, with very rare exceptions for country. ava will only really listen to this band called the hush sound. Codie likes emo/screamo music. bowie listens exclusively to 80’s music, mostly prince and David Bowie. Fiona listens to classic rock. the list goes on!"
