What is your Work Music?

[SuperFerret]

It was supposed to be banned at my workplace, but seeing as I'm the only person on my team who's full time I get to listen to music if I want.

I used to be on Grooveshark or Last fm a lot, but IT decided to block them...so I bought a cheap 4gb usb stick and filled it, now I'm back to being plugged in from 8:30 til 5

I do get some confused looks when people see the odd variety of my playlist though... I got a bit of everything in there!

Oh to be able to listen to music while I work. It's banned at my place.

Do you work for the Burger Meister

In a way I guess I do.

[Err]

Lately, it's been Mozart, Brahms, Bach and Beethoven. The boss prefers classical and well, I just want to make him happy.

Then you probably wouldn't want to add in any Megadeth for hard-core coding.

Here's a couple more that I like.

This is the best song ever recorded:

Seeing as I am getting nostalgic these days I too am listening to Led Zep (and mainly the more bluesy and acoustic stuff live stuff), Fleetwood Mac concerts , a Blondie concert (which is actually one of their more recent gigs and not a 80's one) and most often currently tracks from Santana's Guitar Heaven, in particular "I ain't superstitious", "Little Wing", "Back in Black" and "While my guitar gently weeps".

But most importantly all through my headphones as the girls at work have started playing Christmas songs this week

Aaaagh! That's almost as bad as waiting for the endless political season to be over.

Aaaagh! That's almost as bad as waiting for the endless political season to be over.

WHAT! When did it end?

I have a hard time listening to intricate music while programming as I always end up dissecting the music instead of the VBA code. But certain pieces like this one can get the brain engrams livened up for coding later for sure.

If I had heard this piece played when I was 8 years old instead of "Hello Dolly" by Louis Armstrong, you couldn't have kept me away from a violin. But I became a trumpet player instead for about 10 years.

Amazing piece played live, especially the 2nd half:
