♬ Music In General ♪
Thinking day to day, what do you normally listen to:
Mostly music I'm practicing. On the harp I'm currently practicing songs by S3RL, Rammstein, and some anime songs. With choir I'm currently practicing classical and folk songs (we're doing a concert with songs from different European countries in all those languages).
When I went to karaoke last week, I sang: Still Counting (Volbeat), My Immortal (Evanescence), How far I'll go (Moana), Let it go (Frozen), Kleuren van de wind (Pocahontas), Mixed Nuts (Official Higedandism), Sukiyaki (Kyu Sakamoto), Hey Brother (Avicii), Land of Confusion (Genesis). I also sang along with songs the other people chose (mostly English 80s/90s songs).
If different from the question above, what are you currently into:
Practicing songs for my choir's summer concert, most notable "Northern Lights" by Ola Gjeilo https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XD1RjoZGTbo (I think listing the entire song list here would be a spoiler for the concert... Though I am going to record the concert, so I'll upload it to Youtube afterwards). Also practicing some songs on the harp.
Do you listen to music to study, exercise, or work:
Mostly for studying the music itself.
What platform do you use to listen to music: (ex Spotify, Youtube Music etc.)
Spotify, Youtube and CDs.
What language do you prefer your music:
Doesn't matter.

♬ Friending And Deal-breakers ♪

What do you like to read about: Daily life things.
How often do you check your friends feed: About once a week.
Do you have any deal-breakers: No, but I can only read English/Dutch/Japanese/German easily (so if you write everything in another language, I won't be reading it).
