Well before Celtic Woman, I use to listen to groups Depeche Mode, Erasure, Thompson Twins, The Cure, and others in that same genre. I also listened to alot of Enya, and loved the Riverdance CD, and DVD. I still listen that kind of music just not as much. Celtic Woman has opened a whole new world of music to me. I have found a new love in Irish, and Celtic music. I have came across some amazing Bands, and Artist. Clannad, The Chieftain, Altan, Cherish the Ladies, Solas, Gaelic Storm, Afro Celt Sound System, Moya Brennan, and so many others it would be hard to list them all.

Actually, not really.  I wasn't really a fan of "mainstream music"--I've always loved the "softer" genres like Loreena McKennitt, Enya, David Arkenstone, Moya Brennan, 2002, etc.  Celtic Woman was just the best one I've heard. Cheesy  And yes, it did introduce me to more artists...like Cara Dillon for instance. Cheesy

Well, now Celtic Woman is about the only music I listen to.  Cheesy Cheesy  I don't really feel the need to listen to anything else, unless I'm in the car with my brother who gets so annoyed with Kath and I when we listen to Celtic Woman.  haha  I do listen to the radio once in a while....but as The White~Rose said, it hasn't totally changed what I've listened to.  If I choose to listen to other music, I tend to go back to music I used to listen to before Celtic Woman.  Grin

Sure. It banned groups as Within Temptation and Evanescence forever out my life. Can't imagen I've ever liked those groups  Shocked I listened to the 'softer' music already though, I'm very big fan of Loreena Mckennit and Enya and also good oldie ones as Phill Collins and Tina Turner  Cheesy

 Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy  Seems that way now!  As Kris said, I really don't listen to anything else now.  I don't feel the need to!  Smiley But, if I do listen to other music, it's the artists (well, more like scores, because I do LOVE soundtracks) I already liked before I knew of Celtic Woman.

There sure is!

I still listen to all the same music I did before discovering CW... Actually, I probably listen to a wider variety of stuff now.

I think so a little. I listen to a bigger range of music now. To Celtic Woman I found over Celtic music.

I still listen to some artists I listened to before I discovered CW (though not as much as before) and there are others who I don't listen to anymore. Because of CW I watch more concerts on PBS, so I would definitely say they changed my taste in music, especially Máiréad. Before Máiréad I didn't really care for the sound of the violin. Never hated it, just didn't care for it. But after watching and listening to Máiréad, I absolutely love it, whether I'm listening to Máiréad or somebody else.
