Man, I have a whole ton of favorite music. I really like all different genres. As long as the tunes are good and the lyrics are intelligent, I'll listen to orchestral, rock, alternative rock, pop, country... really anything. The only types of music I don't really like are screamo (so -- much -- screaming >.<), rap (too many rap songs utilize profanity), and Auto-Tune electropop songs like those by Lady Gaga and Brittney Spears and a ton of other pop artists.
That said, my favorite bands / artists are:
U2
Coldplay
Counting Crows
Linkin Park
Train
OneRepublic
Muse
Toby Keith
Billy Joel
Elton John
Jon Bon Jovi
"Weird Al" Yankovic
I also like some songs by Owl City (especially "Alligator Sky") and Red Hot Chili Peppers ("Can't Stop", "Snow (Hey-oh)").
My favorite instrumental composers are:
John Williams
James Newton Howard
Hans Zimmer
John Powell
Johann Pachelbel
Ludwig van Beethoven
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
