Ok, I admit it. I did own some Spice Girls albums. At least I can proudly say, I never liked Hanson. I know a lot of people who went through that phase.

That's cool that Harry likes/liked Eminem.

Oh, and Stevie Wonder; what an amazing man. "Just because a man lacks the use of his eyes doesn't mean he lacks vision."

Prince Bernhard of the Netherlands was/is a huge fan of the late Amalia Rodruigez (a famous fado singer)

 

[Claire]

I remember reading that Prince Edward, Earl of Wessex was avid fan of Peter Gabriel in his Genesis years and after. (Which is odd because the Queen still hired Elton John to play at his 21st) But I hear he is now a friend of Harry Connick Jnr. Not certain he is a fan.

Sophie, apparently was very much into that 1980's punk rock thing. Dire Straits, Duran Duran, ect. Don't know who she listens to now.

Crown Princess Mary likes the Australian band Powderfinger

Yeah she is, and no wonder; Powderfinger are a really good band. They were one of the bands that played at "Rock 'n' Royal" before their wedding.

Exactly But we can't remember which of the artists from the concert who were Frederik's favorite....it might have been DAD or Sanne Salomonsen, but we're not sure!

He is? That´s awesome. I "discovered" her one day in the World Music section of the record shop. You could listen to the CDs. Well, most of them. I listened to several of her songs and she was great. Such expressiveness. Whether on uptempo or slower tunes, she had a marvelous voice. She reminds me of a cross between Edith Piaf and Cesaria Evora. And love the acoustic guitar work you normally get in her recordings.

I made a search on internet, I only found one website with a song for her in the introduction, she seems great, do any body know websites where I can listen to her songs online.

O, well. Thanks. Now with this editing, I look like a fool because I posted the well-known fact that Carl XVI Gustaf is a fan of Stevie Wonder after it was posted in the other thread twice.

Do we know about royals from the past? Many royals were indeed patrons of various composers throughout history.
