    Transcript
    Jeff, Canada
    What kind of music do I listen to? I listen to all kinds of music, every genre of music I
    have and the type of music I listen to depends on the type of mood I'm in, so if it's
    night time and I want to relax, I listen to classical. If I'm doing work, I want to listen to
    something mellow or if I'm exercising, I listen to something more upbeat so I love all
    kinds of music and it just depends on my mood.

    Shibika, India
    I like listening to Indian music in fact, all kinds of Indian music, and I like listening to
    English music as well but I don't prefer to listen to rap.

    Fred, Canada
    My favorite music would have to be jazz. I love jazz from the bottom of my heart. I
    think it's music that suits me. It really brings out so many great emotions in me. It's
    also a way for me to relax and just enjoy my time and I just really love it. It makes me
    feel good.

    Lupe, United States / Mexico


    I'm a music lover so when people ask me what my favorite type of music is I really
    never have a straight answer. I love to listen to all types of music and I love listening
    to Spanish music, English Music. I have favorite singers, not necessarily a favorite
    genre. I really listen to whatever I'm in the mood for. If I'm going out I love fast music
    so that I can dance. If I just want to relax, I'll listen maybe to a little bit of jazz, blues,
    or just lounging music.

    Rebecca. Australia
    What kind of music do I like? The music I like best is the bands that play live in the
    pubs. Generally, they are really good to go and watch. We have a lot of bands come
    through my town where I live. Generally every Saturday night we go to a band and
    watch it. It's better than listening to it on the radio.

    Swinky, Kenya
    What kind of music do I like? My tastes are so diverse. I can't really point out what
    kind of music I like but I'm more inclined to R&B and you know nature music, like
    listening to whales listening to each other and I also like Bollywood music and reggae,
    some styles of reggae are really enjoyable.
