I enjoy every genre because that way I'll never get sick of it.

Anyways, my favorite genre is pop-punk.

I like it because of the catchy melodies, the still energetic tempo, and the less serious vocals/lyrics. I got into pop-punk, because I often used to play skateboarding video games, or watch skateboard videos, and since they have a lot of skate punk/pop-punk, I kinda started listening to that music, and still love it to this day. I also enjoy skate rock/skate punk, its very close, more energetic cousin.

Favorite bands:
MxPx
Lagwagon
Descendents
Millencolin

Songs:
What We Hate - Screeching Weasel
I'm Ok, You're Ok - MxPX
May 16 - Lagwagon
Nothing With You - Descendents

Though some of the bands do skate punk as well.
Isn't punk-pop more of a style than a genre? I'll add some of my favorite punk-pop bands to that list:
blink-182
Fastbacks
Green Day
The Lemonheads
The Presidents of the United States of Amer
Redd Kross
