Prince Duchess Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 So I know everyone has a favorite artist. Whether its from acting to art even music. I'd like to know who it is why and amybe like a picture or a clip of some of their stuff. Ok like my favorite recording artist is Janelle Monae. Why, because here music is different but it still has that feel good vibe to it. And i can relate to what shes talking about in her music. Link to comment

thatboyChase Posted July 24, 2009 Share Posted July 24, 2009 the whole entire concept of the "Gorillaz" exceeds anything done today in the musical/artistic industry 2 Link to comment

Tiger Posted July 24, 2009 Share Posted July 24, 2009 hmmm.... AFI and the Foo Fighters are my two favorites at the moment. gah, I like Steppenwolf too. oh no! Or maybe the Police..... I hate choosing T_T Me too, but if I had to do so, two is as far as I can go, Robert Plant and Chris Cornell. They're both rock stars for anyone who does not know. Anyone who doesn't know who Robert Plant is should be shot. Link to comment
FairyTaleSkies Posted July 24, 2009 Share Posted July 24, 2009 For me its an unsigned, for now, band called 10 Reasons to Live. I love their sound, even after they recently changed lead singers. I've been to a handful of their gigs and they just get better each time. Here a couple of their songs: and their MySpace page: http://www.myspace.com/10reasonstolive I've met most of them in person at gigs and they're all really nice, down to earth guys. Link to comment

Prince Duchess Posted July 25, 2009 Author Share Posted July 25, 2009 I don't suppose J. M. W. Turner counts. of course he counts hes an artist Link to comment
Nephylim Posted July 25, 2009 Share Posted July 25, 2009 Musically - Alanis Morisette and Lily Allen because they are both unique and strong women Artistically - Money... I just love purple and the muted colours are awesome.. my favourite are the water lilies. Acting - Nichole Kidman and Jonny Depp.... for the same reason, their acting is awesome, characterisation unique and I would like to sleep with both of them.... at the same time if possible Link to comment
Niwa Fox Rose Posted July 26, 2009 Share Posted July 26, 2009 Music - It would probably would have to be Mathew Ebel right now. <3 Art - Would have to be Picasso. Acting - *shrugs* I don't pay attention to acting. Johny Depp is awesome though. <3 Literature (Just thought I'd add this. ;D) - That would be Andre Gide, Hawthorne, Christopher Hitchens, and Richard Dawkins. Link to comment
Tarin Posted July 27, 2009 Share Posted July 27, 2009 My favourite artist: Jorane, her singing and music writing abilities are beyond compare. IMO. And her album art is directed by her, iirc, and it is haunting. YouTube her, you won't be disappointed. More specific: Music: (After Jorane) Enya, always great. Occasionally brilliant. Actress: Whoopi Golberg, I don't know why here. Just because I guess. Actor: Freddie Highmore, so cute and an incredible boy. I have to agree, Johnny Depp is a close second, dreamy and what an actor!

Director: Gus van Saint I guess. I don't pay a whole lot of attention to directors. Art: Polyklietos. He defined sculpture for the next...forever. We still use his rules today. Ah Polyklietos... I had forgotten him. Link to comment
YaP Posted July 27, 2009 Share Posted July 27, 2009 Hmm, tough question. Always changing answer. At the moment my fav. musician is Jaco Pastorius Link to comment
Guest JohnnyPoo Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 Fun little questionnaire Music - God, I like so many that I really love, so it depends on my mood for the day. Right now, I'll have to say Brad Paisley. I really enjoy his stuff, good for the road, good for some laughs, and good for the soul. Strictly music speaking, lyrics aside, I enjoy the works of Thomas Newman. He produced the scores of a lot of good movies. Art - I'm familiar with many artists but do not have a favorite. I'm rarely in an artsy mood, so I'd rather not think about this because it all sucks. Acting - This is hard. Actors for their acting? I'm easily tempted to pick them out for their good looks but I like Tom Hanks. How typical huh? I also love seeing Megan Fox on screen. Literature - This is suppose to be fun, not complicated and deep, so I'm not gonna answer this. Link to comment
Zapp Posted August 7, 2009 Share Posted August 7, 2009 Alice In Chains is by far my favourite music group, Layne Staley was a god. Link to comment
corvus Posted August 9, 2009 Share Posted August 9, 2009 Musically (excluding composers) -- Maria Callas all the way. Of the non-operatic bent, there's Jeff Buckley and Bjork. Of the non-vocal category, I'd have to give it to Perlman. Gould's a genius, but more a genius than an artist. Michael Jackson also had it. Art -- it's too hard, this one. So I'll skip it. Haha. But, well... everyone? From Bosch to Durer, Botticelli to Picasso, Van Gogh to Michelangelo. Although I don't consider splotches and soupcans to be art. Actor & Actress -- I think very few of them are true artists, although on stage I'm sure that's not the case. Bjork, when she did Dancer in the Dark, was. Gong Li, Kate Winslet sometimes. Greta Garbo has "witchcraft." Audrey Hepburn had that too in some roles. I'm not as excited by actors. Directors -- I think directors particularly fit the definition of "artist" b/c it's their vision that gets executed. So many of them -- I'm no film buff, btw -- Lynch, Fincher, Scorsese, and my favorite, Ang Lee. Link to comment
Former Member Posted October 14, 2009 Share Posted October 14, 2009 Nicole Kidman (actress), Johnny Depp (actor), William Shakespeare (writer), Comicality (writer), Rafael (painter), Bernini (quite a lot of artistic skills), and when it comes to music, Enya, Hans Zimmer and Nickelback. Oh, and since I love Riverdance, Michael Flatley & co. I guess that sums it all up Link to comment

anonymous dreamer Posted February 17, 2010 Share Posted February 17, 2010 (edited) Recently, I've fallen in love with Adam Young (aka Owl City). His music to me is just a breathe of fresh air. I consider him a rare talent, because it's hard to find someone who can write songs with so much whimsical imagination and feel-good optimism, yet still be able to touch upon the most tender of emotions. It's just hard not to smile when you're listening to one of his songs =) Here's one of my favorite songs from him, Hot Air Balloon <3 Edited February 17, 2010 by anonymous dreamer Link to comment
Guest zomgZACH Posted February 24, 2010 Share Posted February 24, 2010 MUSIC: HIM I like their sound a lot Fun to sing along to (horribly xD) I really like the lyrics of a lot of their songs, although I prefer the older songs more because of the sound // // Slipknot When I'm angry, which happens sometimes, I like to listen to Slipknot. They say a lot of things that I wish I had the guts to say out loud to people x // x // x Rise Against I love their position about world issues and how it translates into their work They really inspire me Plus their songs are just so... singable xP // // The Butterfly Effect Awesome Australian band. Their lyrics are just what I want to say sometimes Or they talk about how I feel in words I can't // // ART: Alex Pardee x // x // x Link to comment
Tomas Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 Music: I primarily enjoy Classical Piano. Having said that, my taste in music is very eclectic. Most anything from Bluegrass to Zydeco, with the exception of Rap and Hip Hop which I can't stand. But I have no particular preference as to the artist. Art: Salvador Dali and M C Escher Link to comment
