Which do you prefer; Uptempo songs, mid-tempo songs or ballads?

Just curious. Mine would be upbeat songs followed by ballads. :]

^ Same here usually, but other times it depends on the artist.

[Weslicious]

Upbeat

Danja, bring it back.

[stickyrice]

mid-tempo music most of the time then uptempo. I only listen to ballads when I feel depressed =\

[bondingo]

It really depends on the artist. Some artists can practically only sing one type (i.e. Yuna Ito is only good at ballads), but ultimately I think up-tempo songs are more easy to be appealing. They're easier to do, especially for an artist with limited vocals. I think that's why I hate to see Chinese singers sing a ton of ballads, since many of them aren't that vocally talented and are only good at up-tempo/dance tracks.

If you're talking about Jolin Tsai I know how you feel.

She's certainly one of them, that's for sure

[..:Hot:Like:Wow:..]

Uptempo all the way!

[alt.total-loser]

Upbeat BOOM BOOM songs, thanks.

[sora2522]

depends. i like upbeat for dancing, ballads are nice to 'sing' to/relax to


i love emo songs, they're so fun to lipsynch to. you just pretend your dying, move your mouth, and you're singing!!! XD

but she has improved in her ballads in this album..lol..diligence makes up for it


i prefer ballads..and of course good ones...but still listen to up-tempo songs when im in need of an energy boost.

Down tempo, not necessarily ballads. Slow songs, that are NOT R&B jams, I prefer dark ambient, freak folk, alternative, etc... But yeah, I can listen to slow or fast music, but my favorite is always slow, dark and creepy music

[Dreamin Startin]

I love and definitely prefer up-tempo and mid-tempo song. I love song ballads also, but I'd pick up/mid-temp songs any day. Let's DANCE baby.

As long as it's GOOD, I don't CARE, really.

[spookshow]

uptempo!

i'm pretty picky about ballads... i have to really love the lyrics to love the song... most are too sappy for me.

[Qt Mashi]

mine is ballads, i don't get sick of them as quick, most of my favourite songs by Ayu are ballads~

[extepan]

i like bubblegum or gance...so i would say upbeat, then ballads.

[*Petit*]

Uptempo.

[Cyria]

There are some lovely ballads or mid-tempo songs, but most of my favourites are uptempo.

[Eternally]

I prefer uptempo and mid-tempo songs. When I listen to ballads, I have to be in the mood to listen to them...which isn't all the time. Lol.
