Music:

My favorite music includes female singers with strong voices like Enya, Fiona Apple, Sarah McLachlan, Dido, and Loreena Mc Kennitt. I used to listen to a lot of alternative/experimental/gothic music back in the 80's and 90's. I'll always like Bauhaus, U2, the Ramones and other stuff I grew up with. Still like a bith of Gothic music (HIM and Evanescence are two big faves!)There was a lot of Classical music and Classic Rock in my house as a kid.Bauhaus just put out the first new release in 25 years! What??? Nobody freakin' told me?!! Anyway, it reminds me of my misspent youth :)I guess enjoy a little of everything, with the exceptions of most country and hard core rap. But never say never......

Movies:

Lord of the Rings and Harry Potter films are some of my current faves. I like too many movies to list them all here. I watch a lot of them and know a lot of useless movie trivia! My favorite film of all time is "A Clockwork Orange". Anything fantasy, is usually ok. Check out "Pan's Labyrinth" -the best thing I have seen recently.

Television:

LOSTGlobe Trekker/Rick Steve's Europethe Travel Channel - my favorite :)Desperate Housewives
