When our record collections merged we ended up with two copies of Dark Side Of The Moon, Tubular Bells, Hunky Dory and Parallel Lines (well, it was the early 80s) - I think the rest of her collection was Barclay James Harvest's Octoberon, Carole King's Tapestry and The Free Story (I can't remember - I haven't played any of them in the past 30 years and not likely to anytime soon).
 
Anyway, joint likes - Pink Floyd, Peter Gabriel, XTC, Muse, Nick Cave, Inkubus Sukkubus, Neil Young.
 
She likes, I don't - Razorlite. The Killers.
 
I like, she doesn't - metal.
 
What?

My girlfriend lives with music. Her most favourite is Freddie Mercury.

I approve greatly.

She actually turned me on to more stuff than I got her into of mine.  We both like Santana, but she's more partial to the Supernatural era stuff.

My current one isn't much of a music listener but she accepts whatever I listen to.

Don't have a girlfriend right now, but the previous one was all for Lady GaGa and Justin Bieber. I obviously don't approve. LOL

First wife loved the Stones. Second one listened to nothing but country. Irreconcilable differences.

My lady-person is into a vast array of music - everything ranging from 90's pop and alterna-rock, classical (Bach and Mendelssohn primarily), classic rock (a smattering of Queen, Boston, Fleetwood Mac), lots of folk music a la Pete Seeger, Joan Baez, Woodie Guthrie, and the occasional dose of prog (I got her into Pure Reason Revolution, and we both love The Decemberists). 

Also, we share an undying passion for Rufus Wainwright and Leonard Cohen.

Her Last.fm top 20 (not scrobbled for a month or two, though). Agree big time.

Mrs. someone_else is hardly interested in music. Sometimes she plays some Christian worship music. She likes Over the Rhine as well (not really my thing, but surely not bad). One thing we both like is a series of recent reworkings of the Psalms (in Dutch). Some of them might be classified as prog related.
