usually some old video game music, rush any songs that I know the words to that way it doesn't distract me trying to listen to the lyrics.

No country, Enya... Yanni? :)

I usually don't listen to music when I code but when I do it's always RHCP or Rush.

I like variety in my music, makes me more energetic and keeps me on my ass in long sessions.
Oh and i forgot to mention Korn...

I don't listen to (much) country, I don't hate it but it's not my favorite. I do however love classic Rock/Rap alternative which sounds a hell of a lot like country had sex with rap and somehow created *an acoustic gangster baby.
Good example is my favorite of the genre, Everlast. He's more of a straight up rapper now... Now that he's 40 and looks way to old to rap.

I do indeed love Enya, although it's not coding music for me. I tend to listen to the more hardcore rap/rock when coding.

For God so loved the world that he blessed the thugs with rock
