So, "music" is not permitted.
What does everyone listen to?

Instead of Satan's voice, most of us listen to the words of Allah recited in the most beautiful recitations.

Others may listen to songs/nasheeds in English, Arabic or even their own native languages.

Let's start with you though.

I appreciate this is about music, but do you listen to the Quran? If so, who do you like

I take exception to the fact that you would consider music to be Satan's voice, when you follow it up with a type of music. Nasheeds, I wasn't aware of the term before.

Have I "listened" to Quran recitals? No, I'm reading it to get a fuller understanding of it.

It's beautiful. In fact there are videos you can watch with the translation. Amazing too.

Some people have videos (I don't really the point) but they show their reaction when listening to verses of the Quran. These videos are made by non Muslims and they end up in tears. Allah knows how genuine these guys are, a lot of them are click bait unfortunately

I would link a song here, but I'm not sure if it counts as Nasheed.
It features vocals, a daf but also what sounds like beads shaking. So, I'm not sure it's appropriate.

Listening to it has a completely different effect I cannot put into words. It's just beautiful! Also Rasulullah صلی الله عليه وسلم would also love listening to the Qur'an. Sometimes he would ask his companions to recite and he would just listen.

I don't listen to anything for pleasure or enjoyment. Sometimes after a stressful day, I listen to the Qur'an or some motivational poetry.

I don't know, maybe I approach life too logically.
For me, right now, I couldn't truly appreciate a reading of the Quran, because I don't know it's meaning.
Not to say I wouldn't necessarily find it pleasing, but it would be pleasing without depth.
(If that makes any sense to you)

On the other hand I have found some nasheeds I've listened to, to be very easy to understand and appreciate on their own.

I don't agree. You first listen and then share your thoughts with us. You'll find it very soothing.

Otherwise please share your logic about music too.

Listening to the Quran with the correct etiquette also has multiple benefits.

The Quran is also used for treatment believe it or not.

Shaytans voice I never suggested I wanted to listen to music with foul lyrics.

This one seems to be accompanied by a musical background? youtu.be/M3xjz4nxzGQ

Whereas Quran (from the same reciter as the two nasheeds) youtu.be/t5SZG6KEVFQ
This is undoubtedly beautiful, but I don't know a thing he's saying.
