#14No electronic music, what?
I'd think programmers would listen to electronic music more than the average person... Kraftwerk, anyone? (in my ears right now)

#15Personally, it's whatever I can listen to that I can't sing along to. That can either be something purely instrumental (most of Pendulum's songs, e.g.), something in a different language (Sigur Ros), or mashups (Girl Talk).
This. I program, which means using words (naming variables and methods, etc). If a song has words I can understand, it seems to distract the language part of my brain too much. So instrumental music works best for me.
Silence is the very best thing, but music is better than background conversation.

#16Like others pointed out - glaring omission of electronic music. I am a death metal fan, but for coding I prefer uplifiting trance.

I would not call them silly when the most voted options at this moment is classical music.
