More interestingly, the genres people choose to listen to vary throughout the day - in the mornings we are more likely to listen to upbeat pop or rock music with 49% of people listening to pop and 38% opting for rock, and classical music very low in the stakes. But when asked about their evening commute, classical music was much more highly listened to, with 13% of Londoners overall choosing it on the way home, perhaps as a way to wind down after a long day at the office.

Similarly, the method of transport you use has some sort of effect on your choices, with bike riders choosing heavy metal above all genres on their way to work, but soothing classical music in the evening. 29% of those who drive cars to work listen to classical music, whereas those who ride the bus are the most inclined to listen to faith or gospel music.

The survey doesn't go into the reasons behind these choices, but it might leave you able to predict what music will be blaring out of the headphones of the inevitable irritating person next to you on your way to work tomorrow.
