What's your favorite genre(s)? I really don't have a favorite per se. Classical is great but I've only recently started listening to it and don't understand any of the technicalities of it. I like certain subsets of dubstep as well.
Is there someone who influenced your taste in music? Absolutely. Most of my friends have influenced my musical tastes in some way.
What music did you listen to as a kid, and how does it differ from the music you listen to today? When I was a kid, I didn't listen to much music, but I remember loving the All American Rejects. I still like them today, but my tastes have expanded since then.
What are your happy songs? Anything up-beat really cx. I know it's obvious but I'm just not sure what particularly. "Express Yourself" by NWA is totally up beat and like it could make anyone happy.
What are your sad songs? "To Build a Home" by Cinematic Orchestra is probably one of the saddest songs ever made. Not sure what else, that's the first one that came to mind.
Are there any songs you associate with certain memories? Dude. I remember the first time I ever fell in love with a song(I think). I was in my brother's room and he was listening to his playlist. My brothers and I loved Bionicle. There was a song in one of the old Bionicle games or movies(I forget which) called "Move Along" by the All-American Rejects. I loved that song and it was my first introduction to AAR.
Name some songs you just really like. "Underwater" by Mika, "The Cave" by Mumford and Sons, "K. 545 I. Allegro" by Mozart, "Empire of The Clouds" by Iron Maiden, "Lionhearted" by Porter Robinson.

When do you listen to music? Before I go to bed and sometimes at school. Occasionally during the day when the mood strikes me.
Anything else you'd like to add? I don't listen to enough music. xD I really should listen to more. There's some great stuff out there just waiting to be heard by me.
