How do you find out about a song or band?

[KaraTails]

How do you most often find the songs you listen to?
Do you hear them on the radio?
Does your friend get you to listen to a song?
Do you find the lyrics in someone's sig/post/story/etc?
Do you find them on AMVs?
Do you find them on someone's profile?
Word of mouth?
Anime, movie, or game soundtrack?

How often do you like the one song, but dislike the rest from that Artist?
How often do you you love all but one or two from that artist?

~~~~~~~~
I dont listen to the radio.... But I can list at least 4 times when I have found a song I like there.
I think at least 4 artists and 20 songs in my ipod are from having a friend singing or letting me listen to thier ipod .
I know of 3 songs thet were found via lyrics.
AMV's? Definatly a big sourse of my music
Found two artists by hearing them on a friend's profile
Only one artist was from word of mouth.
Soundtracks make up a big part of my playlist. (has zOMG music *SQUEEE*)

Eh... lots of my artists have about 1 to 4 songs. I just dont like the rest of their music...
I think we all have an artist like that.

Usually word of mouth. My lover and I are very in sync with each other's musical G-spot's, and can easily pinpoint what eachother would enjoy when we look for new music.
We search music blogs, sample songs and read reviews. Sometimes just take a chance on it, and download it on a whim if we think the genres sound good, or the influences are things we know and love.
