I like a little bit of everything. But I grew up in a household that never played any classical music. Then one time while using my old turntable I accidently got a stereo test record mixed in with some rock albums. When my Led Zeppelin album ended the next record to fall was the stereo test record and the first song to play was the Russian Sailor's Dance by Rimsky-Korsakov and it seemed like such a good transition at the time. That got my interest going in classical, though I still don't listen to as much as I should.
Comfortable favorites that I always fall back on: Frank Sinatra, Chris Rea, Tears for Fears, The Beatles, The Beach Boys Pet Sounds, Moody Blues, ELO, Annie Lennox, Bob Dylan, Lyle Lovett, Bruce Springsteen, The Doors.
