My list usually consists of
The Smashing Pumpkins (Ava Adore cd mostly)
Nine Inch Nails (they have a lot of instrumentals that are really surreal)
And if I'm trying to write a sad scene, John Mayer's new stuff.

I cannot for the life of me listen to anything at all, it destroys any ambience I create for myself, although, when I relax and make a coffee, the sounds go on loudly, again, with no lyrical content at all. Even the wife can destroy the calmness by just walking around and I love her to bits, it doesn't stop me whining though...lol

I like music but it distract me while I'm writing. Most writers want a quiet place. Now I'm writing a ebook for my website Tek Media. Check it out Tek-Media dot com.Scott Hughes wrote:Do you listen to music when you write? I like to listen to music when I work at my computer, but it distracts my line of thought sometimes when I'm writing. However, I don't have a problem if I listen to music without lyrics, such as classical music or instrumentals. I prefer to do that, because the silence makes me feel to restless to write. What about you? Do you play music or anything, or do you prefer to write in silence?

Anyway, it seems like a lot of you can listen to music while writing. I honestly can/can't do both.
If I'm stuck on a point (which happens often because I have shifty panties), having music on will start to piss me off. A sticky plot point, or a badly written paragraph that refuses to become well-written, and I'm ripping the stereo's plug out of the socket. Also: don't speak to me or look like you're happy where I can see you!

However. If I'm rolling (on inspiration!) and really, really into the characters, then I welcome the music~because I can ignore it.
I use music to muse, then switch it off and start to write.
