Well, what is that religious music? What is holidy music? I think it's all religion all around, and who the hell listenes to it? Nobody! I think you are trying to bait me somewhere now.
I knew a Norwegian girl who listened to Christian pop. She wasn't even from the bible belt, but Oslo.
Christian Rock festivals in UK and Europe (partial list) Note: I do not endorse Christian pop music or religion in general :-)
Greenbelt Festival Soul Survivor 'Ultimate Events' at Alton Towers Frenzy in Edinburgh Creation Fest at Woolacombe
Flevo Festival of The Netherlands, which offers seminars, theater, stand-up comedy, sports and movies as well as Christian music from a wide variety of genres, is considered to be one of the biggest Christian festivals in Europe
Skjærgårdsfestivalen, another large festival in Norway.
I'm not a music expert, but I can show you a couple of recent Italian songs that I like (I like quite strange songs...). So that for me also the lyrics are important I try to put also the link of the translations.
This is probably my favorite song in the last year.
I can't find a English translation about it, so I try to translate at least the refrain. If you are interested it is under the spoiler
Spoiler
Non me lo posso permettere,...............I can't effort it
Non me lo posso permettere,...............I can't effort it
e non ci devo riflettere,......................and I don't have to think about it
te lo dico a chiare lettere,...................I tell you it in clear letters
Non me lo posso permettere,...............I can't effort it
quindi ti dico di no!............................so I tell you no!
In practice the song is about the things that the people can no more effort due to the economic crisis. The rest of the song is a list of things that he can no more effort, or because it's too much expensive, or because of the social situation.
example of some other lines
Stasera niente cena fuori.....................this evening no dinner at the restaurant
non me la posso permettere................I can't effort it
Credo nell’onestà ...................................... ..I believe in the honesty
la disillusione non me la posso permettere..... I can't effort the disillusion
ma la bici l’attacco, quattro catene................but I lock the bicycle, four chains
troverò un posto per metterle......................I will find a place where put them
(like to say "I'm a honest person, but I can't trust the other. If I don't want my bicycle to be stolen it's better to lock it with a chain")
I live in Spain and my favorite type of music is Indie/Alternative rock which is very popular in much of Europe.
However i agree with the poster that said that the most popular music genre in Europe nowadays is Electronic. Look no further than the numerous and highly popular Electronic Music Festivals that happen throughout Europe and you'll confirm that.
There's a lot of popular subcultures in Europe though as it's expected. Here in Spain i would say the most popular music styles are in that order: Electronic/Pop, Latin music, Alternative Music (something Americans would call adult contemporary, think of Gotye for example), and then Rock, Rap/Hiphop, Reggae..
My favourite band and imo also the best band to ever exist.
Iron Maiden
I started to get into Heavy Metal, thanks to Motörhead
My favourite genre is Thrash metal
That's enough for now
Nobody here will share my taste anyway.
This just totally took me back to High School in the 80s! Thanks.
