For me, it's always about a mood, generally dictated by what I absorb through my senses at some point of the day. It's why I could never state that I have a "favorite" anything. How can you when....moods and flavors of moods change? At least, that's how it runs for me.
@ FR this was running thru my Head earlier when certain members who have now been DA'd were attacking Platinum relentlessly and they had him blocked lolz
My lofty, artsy fartsy response is... I put a song in my playlist because I like the song. I have music from nearly every genre except opera and dubstep.
Yes, of course, but the question is WHY do you like the song. I have everything from Classical to Foreign Language, to Classic Rock to New Wave, to Weird Shit.
Some have a good beat, or lyrics, or they're from a movie or TV show I like. Others have good instrumentals or vocals or they remind me of a happy time. Some are good to listen to when I'm angry, letting me drive and scream along with the lyrics. Each song is liked for a different reason, I guess.
It just depends. I like different types of music for different reasons. When it comes to classical, I obviously don't care about lyrics, but when it comes to rap, lyrics are the most important part (along with beat). I also love electronica because of the different varieties of electronic sounds. I like music in languages I don't understand because I like the sound of the languages...there are a lot of reasons.

I always have been partial to Beethoven.
Yeah what the song is about and how catchy it is. And also many times if it´s an artist I like more.

When I listen to Electronic music, I have to enjoy the loud beat, but when I listen to a Sounds of Nature CD, I have to relax.
Melody rather than noise.
What I'm doing at the time.
Cleaning house? Korn or Rage Against the Machine.
Drawing or painting? Anything classical.
Driving? Rap, Classical Rock, 80's club music.
Crying in my beer? Blues, Adele, Opera.
I listen to what is "speaking" to me at the time....like now
