darth_mint Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 I've been playing tapes to Nicky every evening for a week now, and he's told me clearly that he likes keyboard music, cheerful youthful vocals (even better if there's a few people singing) and apparently slow rock. He's so cute! He'll come and sit near where I'm holding the cassette player, and tilt his head to one side to listen. Sometimes he'll even try to whistle along! :laugh: On the other hand, he does NOT like powerful, emotional-sounding voices or prolonged notes. I played him Phantom of the Opera and he turned his back, then got all stiff and started to pin during the great Phantom-Christine duet. Guess I won't be hearing any Sarah Brightman imitations from him... Anyone else tried out different kinds of instruments and vocals? It would be so interesting to know if this is a general preference or varies between individual Greys. I'm going to keep trying different genres with Nicky (although I draw the line at playing heavy metal to him...for fear that he'll imitate it :pinch: ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
siobha9 Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 Liaths tastes are not quite so refined:P She loves Doggy in the Window and she can whistle a reel along with the best of them;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suzzique Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 Alex loves Strauss. But he also likes big band (late 30"s - early 50's) as well as stuff that ranges from the Beach Boys to Ozzy Osbourn. It just depends on the song more than anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LindaMary Posted August 21, 2008 Share Posted August 21, 2008 Max mellows right out to Zamfir (sappy flute music) and recordings of humpback-whalesong. But the music that really gets her chatting and whistling along right now is an OLD Bob Marley & the Wailers tape I have (early 1970's vintage...)

BMustee Posted August 21, 2008 Share Posted August 21, 2008 Elmo likes 80's music and disco. She gets all puffed up and chats along to it. The baby TAGs seem to really like the Phantom of the Opera music...I have some of the songs on my ipod and play it in the car. Thats pretty funny that your's seems to hate it.

Guess I won't be hearing any Sarah Brightman imitations from him... Hmm, I have the soundtrack as well, I'll have to try that with Loki ... I'm a huge Phantom fan, my cousin worked for Pantages theater (now known as the Canon Theater) up here in Toronto, the home of the Phantom for about 12'ish years, I saw it 3-4 times at least. (although I draw the line at playing heavy metal to him...for fear that he'll imitate it :pinch: ) Heh, my main love in music is Heavy Metal .. my iTunes is full of mainly just that .. so I hope Loki likes it. :woohoo: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toni Posted August 26, 2008 Share Posted August 26, 2008 I like country music but not into Johnny Cash we stumbled across his Ring Of Fire song and Alcazar goes bizzare and whistles to it. Its the only song he goes wacko too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Missa818 Posted August 26, 2008 Share Posted August 26, 2008 Raz loves salsa music and most of all, Frank Sinatra. I think he enjoys the quick beat and the trumpets. 'Course, he loves any kind of music with a "techno" feel as well. All the beeps and funny noises are irresistible to head bob to.:laugh: Icegudi: Cute video, Raz enjoyed as well!
