Music when you were a kid

What did you listen to when you were a kid? I don't mean like 13 or 16.

What did you listen to when you were like 7 -10? If you listen to that music now does it seem different?

My favourite band when I was growing up was KISS.

Now that I've grown up and I've had sex I've come to the conclusion that the guys in KISS were genius's. They combined cool costumes, rock music, and sex. That's probably the ultimate combination of all things in the world.

To me there is nothing better than sitting with a special chick and throwing on Rock 'N Roll over or Love Gun.

 

haha i was all about incubus and mariah carey

loved jewl and usher too

incubus is still my band and will always be in spite of the terrible light grenades album. and i will always acknowledge the beauty of mariah carey's voice, she is incredible, though im just less into r&b than i used to but i still dig it

spice girls too

 

Michael Jackson, Guns N Roses, Crue, Skid Row, Ugly Kid Joe, Poison, KISS,

I come from a time when MTV was Music Television

 

When I was little I listened to a lot of old country music, like Hank Williams, Patsy Cline, etc.. it's what my grandma listened to and so I grew up with it.
eventually pop music a little later.. ew

 

oldies and classic rock

 

Peter Gabriel.. I LOVED Sledgehammer when i was a kid... its funny to think back that when i was like 8 i loved a song full of sexual innuendos... it explains a lot today

 

80's soft rock well anything 80's

 

The first CD I deliberately asked someone to get for me was a Backstreet Boys single.

Then the Will Smith - Big Willie CD.

I wasn't very interested in music at all until...I guess it was fifth grade when I got a Limp Bizkit CD. That's when I got into Phase 1 of my music life, listening to the likes of Linkin Park, System of a Down, Rage Against the Machine, Papa Roach and Eminem.

That lasted until I was 13 when I bought an Iced Earth CD.

Of that music, SOAD and RATM the machine are the only bands I have much respect for...and Eminem but to a lesser extent. I don't like RATM as much as I used to but don't mind them now again. SOAD aged very well. And I don't listen to Eminem much but when I do I like it. Hell, I dug his most recent album.

oh my god, how could i forget the backstreeet boys, good call man...i was one of those girls all about BSB and totally opposed to n'sync haha its funny cuz i love solo justin timberlake, he's good with the beats guys, shut up, if i can dance to it, i usually approve

 

I just had a flashback!!! Holy shit!

Okay. One day me and my family were driving home from a family reunion and my dad had The Wall playing in the car (he's a huge Floyd fan) and I said "turn this off, this music is so boring".

And him and my mom kept laughing and he said "One day your gonna find yourself listening to Pink Floyd, trust me it happens to everybody". I said "No I won't I don't like this music".

......Well.. My parents were right, I did find Pink Floyds music and damn... I love it and have loved it ever since I started listening to them like 2 years ago.

Damn my Dad... He knows so much about music he even predicted what I'd listen to.

.....And was right about it.

 

.

 

I listened to the stuff my dad listened to when i was like 4-7 (pink floyd, rush, zeppelin, etc) and then from like 8-11 i listened to whatever everyone else listened to. Eminem, Blink 182, Nelly, Sum 41, etc. nothing good really. then from then on i started not caring what anyone else listened to and realized what good music was

 

Hell yeah Jim Croce

Its bad, bad leroy brown
The baddest man in the whole damn town
Badder than old king kong
And meaner than a junkyard dog

 

I listened to a lot of classic rock because my parents did..
but I also liked Third Eye Blind, Hanson, NSync, and Backstreet Boys haha
I still like Third Eye Blind, but none of the others.

 

I listened to a lot of Led Zeppelin, some Alex Cooper, Steely Dan, Elvis Costello, The Rolling Stones, of course The Beatles, a lot of Mo-Town, Sting, Jimi Hendrix

They pretty much stuck with me in what I listened to from then on, but I got into rock stuff like At the Drive-In, Mars Volta, Minus the Bear, and from there went into hiphop, thanks mainly to Common and Kanye West's first albums.

 

strictly metallica and zeppelin...it raised me well

 

Elvis Presley, Chuck Berry, Little Richard, The Everly Brothers, Ricky Nelson.

 

This about sums up my awful taste in music as a kid

 

crazy musicians....
