To be honest, I don't think my wife has one artist that stands out as a favorite. But if we can use a class of popular music, then Broadway musical songs are basically her favorite.

My lady's favourite band used to be Muse, but she didn't really like the direction they took with Absolution and she rarely listens to them these days. Nowadays she doesn't really have a single favourite, but we're starting to influence one another's tastes a lot more - she's into Cardiacs, Max Tundra, Thus:Owls, North Sea Radio Orchestra, Everything Everything, etc. thanks to me, and in turn I've gotten into stuff like Adam Green and White Stripes which I wouldn't have given a second thought in my prog-snob days.

My wife likes sophisticated pop music, vocal jazz, classic RnB and neo-soul. Some of her favorites include Nina Simone, Steely Dan, Sting, David Bowie, Roxy Music, Norah Jones, Jill Scott, Stevie Wonder, Stereolab etc.
I can't complain, her tastes are often more sophisticated than my own.

Dream Theater. I approve.
She used to like Nickelback. I used to have cramps for that. Luckily, it seems it was just a thing of the moment... Anyway, I don't care. She can like whatever she wants.
She goes with me to all my classical concerts. And she enjoys them.
I love her.

My wife has always been a big Elton John fan, but also Yes and Queen. I can deal with all of these-Yes obviously, that was the common ground that helped get us together-but she also likes a lot of AOR rock, much of which I don't care for.

My wife hates Yes, so that's no good. She does like post Obscured by clouds Floyd though. Actually I don't know if she likes Animals or not.

She doesn't exist...neither do her favorite bands.

^ That version does sound better, doesn't it?  Either way is true, though.

My girlfriends favorites these days is Jason Mraz. Previously it was The Beatles and Dashboard Confessional. She also likes Filipino rock bands like Eraserheads (she is Filipina herself). She's also enjoyed bands like Odds, 54-40 and Tears for Fears a lot in the past, back when they were among my favorites as well. I enjoy some of her music and am indifferent to some.
