Chancer most definately does. Last night he spent ages by my OH listening to his music playing. He likes REM, Nickleback and other rock music - stands totally still and happy looking but hates Suzanne Vega (as do I) and tries to chew the pod when she is on.

It was great actually, he was so busy listening to the music and smelling my OH's head that he didn't chew and kick anything he shouldn't or hassle Cairo whilst in the school.
 
Yep, Ali's a big fan of any sort of dance music and U2

Not entirley sure if either of them like it but sod it they will have to lump it if they don't

Poor ponies don't get much of a choice of music either it's either...metal, heavier metal, or even heavier metal.

Mine does and has really strange taste- he likes Chemical Brothers, Beastie Boys, Trance, hard house and a few songs by my fav band (Guillemots)

Yep - we did this with my mare recently - seemed to keep her lovely and relaxed!!!
 
Pickle hates music, if it's on even remotely in the indoor school he goes mad! he will just about allow a bit of leona lewis, kate nash but queen is just too much for him!
 
One of the horses at college gos really well when ridden to music, it relaxes him soooo much. hehe. But i used to work for a lady who had 2 eventers and 4 youngsters, they would go wild if their was any kind of music playing. Strange animals! lol.
 
Actually had my trainer suggest it for when we are schooling in the indoor arena, otherwise Midy loses all concentration listening to the sounds outside - I prefer Virgin Radio - lots of variety!
