Why Do You Like The Artists You Like Today?

Alright-y! Time to start getting active on these forums! And what better way to start than by a) talking about something I love, and b ) trying to revive a section that seems pretty...unpopular? IDK. Anywho, as the title suggests, what's the main reason that got you into your favorite bands/solo artists, or just any band/solo artist you happen to like and listen to more-or-less frequently? Did you like the whole sound? Just the voice? Are they inspirational with their songs or just as people? Etc...
 
I guess I'll start this: one of my favorite bands is Scary Kids Scaring Kids (I think they're my 3rd favorite...I can't keep track these days), and I fell in love with the first song I heard by them, Watch Me Bleed. I admired the lyrics, which in my lyrical interpretation talked about loneliness and the world being against you (yay, serious stuff! XD). So the first thing I fell for was the meaning. As I listened to more of their songs, I realized how amazingly ear-gasmic the lead singer's raw-sounding, higher-pitched voice was, and in certain songs the guitar intros were even moreso, like in Holding On.
 
So yeah, that's one of my stories. Care to share?

Cinder, I like because of Soul Creation, I'd heard it in a video game (Downhill Domination) and fell in love with it.

 

SoiL, I like because of Halo. It was the 2nd rock song I'd gotten into, I remember thinking it was a little too heavy for me at the time (I listened to a lot of pop at the time) and my friend linked me to a video with the song and I came round to it. Plus Ryan McCombs' facebook posts are really funny.

 

Thousand Foot Krutch/Three Days Grace, came from my days moderating AMV contests for another forum I really enjoyed 'Phenomenon' and 'I Hate Everything About You', first for its energy and 2nd I liked the theme.
