I generally listen to the in-game music, though when I'm RPing, I'll usually stick on a playlist of Square music from several games because the in-game music can get a little repetitive after a while.
I can't say I've had a character in XIV inspired by music, though I did play a House Fortunae Hermetic inspired by the song Shape of My Heart by Sting once. When I'm running tabletop games, I generally pull together a playlist to provide background music for what's going on. So, music factors into my RP, just not that much in this game.
ICly, L'yhta can sing, but she doesn't do it very often. To be honest, I haven't had music come up ICly as much as I'd like, but it's hard to do so for me, at least, in a fantasy setting. I made a lot more references to music in CoX, CO, and TSW, as they're modern settings and you can actually talk about modern bands and styles. Playing an evil, mad bard in EQ, I got to do a lot of stuff with music, but it was more "music as magic" and less "music for its own sake."
