The music taste of the main characters in the Harry Potter series. A thread.

Harry:
"I like all music really"
Tells everyone his favourite song is Hallelujah by Jeff Buckley and is oblivious to it being a cover.
Holding out for Kaiser Chiefs to headline glasto.
Ron:

Collected all the CDs Kerrang used to put out. Reel Big Fish, Less Than Jake, Streetlight Manifesto.

Has a big baggy Greenday hoody from Camden Market.
Hermione:

Listens to Classic FM in the car but if she has the house to herself its between Regina Spektor and the Hamilton Soundtrack.
"Its really fun and you can learn a lot"
Draco:

Tells everyone he listens to Jay-Z, Dilated Peoples and Wu-Tang but secretly loves the classic posh-white-boy stuff - Coldplay, Mumford and Sons, Dave Matthews Band.
Hagrid:

"I likes anything i can dance to", got big into glam rock and even had some big old sideburns. Favourite bands are Slade, Status Quo but he also has a soft-spot for the Wurzels.
Dumbledore:

Grateful Dead and only the Grateful Dead.
Sirius Black

He's a proper Drowned In Sound music snob. Loves Slint, Pavement, Sleater Kinney and goes to bed in an old Meat Puppets t-shirt.
Professor McGonagall

Got big into Northern Soul and can still pull some good moves when she needs to. Favourite song is The Snake by Al Wilson but hasn't been so keen on it since the Chamber of Secrets was opened.
Remus Lupin

If you ask him what he likes he mumbles something about bands you've never heard of and maybe mentions Ringo Starr. He likes a lot of Frank Zappa, Captain Beefheart and Ivor Cutler.
Neville Longbottom

Nev got massively into the Libertines and for a while thought that Babyshambles could be good. Now listens to a lot of St Vincent, Bikini Kill "rock music tends to have a male bias, I say there should be more female headliners at festivals" good on ya Nev.
Lord Voldemort

Wagner. Glenn Campbell's Rhinestone Cowboy and both of the theme tunes to Only Fools and Horses.
Ginny Weasley

"I don't really mind - just put the radio on"
Inspired by @SoozUK 's "what such and such character voted in brexit"
