What genre of music is this?

Alternative. Most of those songs/bands are my favs :)

That’s the music I listen to when I am in my moody/creative mode.

Bruce Springsteen is classic rock.

I believe a radio programmer would call that set list “adult contemporary”

I think soft rock or, yeah… contemporary ballad.

I’d also say alternative/pop. Fields of Gold is one of my favorite questions on Earth!!!!

Thanks for the responses so far. I’m thinking that I may have given Flutherites the wrong idea of what I’m looking for with the word “genre”. I guess what I’m looking for is more of a single descriptive and identifying word, rather than a genre such alternative rock. I would say that Pearl Jam produces alternative rock music but I wouldn’t put any of their songs on the list I gave because none of their songs have the sound and feel of the ones I gave above. Anyway, just a clarification. Thanks everyone for trying!

“Trying”, says he. I feel so small.

:)

I didn’t mean it like that squirbel! I really appreciate your answer. And my, what good taste in music we have ;)

:D

Oh. I “get” now what you’re asking. I know exactly what quality you’re talking about but haven’t the musical knowledge to name it.

Plug them into pandora.com. It has really accurate descriptors. You can do it for each individual song.

Great suggestion kevbo! Can’t believe I didn’t think of that sooner, but that’s what Fluther’s for.
