What music did you listen to when you were a kid?
 

The 1st record I can ever remember loving was Adam Ant's "Stand and deliver"...I even went to a fancy dress party dressed as Adam Ant when I was 7...Mr T won though:(

I also liked Frankie Goes To Hollywood and there was a lot of raised eyebrows in my house when i picked this record out...



so what music did you love when you were a kid?

When I was young I used to listen to my Menudo 8 track A LOT.
I had a Care Bears record player so I used to play Michael Jackson single LPs on there. My favorite tape was a mix tape my big cousin had given to me with Rap and R&B. Good Times :cool:

my grandparents old 78's, stax r&b records, the beatles, beachboys, the monkees, chad and jeremy, 77 wabc. tons of stuff. i listened to music whenever i could. mostly crappy am transistor radios with tiny, tinny speakers. i don't think i heard my first good stereo untill i was 12 or 13. still, i loved it all.

- js.

I was bored today and so decided to make this, as answer to your topic, from several gifii scattered about the net. It were fun :¬))


              'Disco..disco du..erm, elephant??!'


Ð :S:

p.s. this should goto Underground (or Underground as well?) Great thread!

the wiggles, snow, mc hammer, celine dion, whitney houston, (lmao, axl is gonna murder me), mariah carey, girlfriend, etc..

strangely enough two of the above turned out to be crack whores..

girlfriend... lol :D i listened to them too, and i listend to alot of QUEEN and michael jackson :BL:

You know, was never big on American 'folk rock' like Dylan, Biaz? ect ect...


But theres always been one exception to that, Joni Mitchell. When I was little, there was a time when we were traveling in a buss my dad converted into a motor home, and it had an 8 track, and there were 4 tapes of interest, belonged to my older siblings, and they formed the basis of my musical tastes. They were


1. James Gang - James Gang Rides Again
2. Moody Blues - A Question Of Balance
3. Emerson Lake And Palmer - Tarkus*****

and

4. Joni Mitchell - Court And Spark

Still love all 4, and with all have explored the crux of their works. Currently I am so so so so fixated on Joni Mitchell - The Hissing Of Summer Lawns. The voice, so sweet, the music, so melodic. A true songwriter, she tells storys and tales that make sense, takes you places, through emotions, through lifes.

I also listened to all the shit that was on pop radio, and shit my parents liked and played like Tiuana Brass and Mancini.

The mini-pops. :shk:

i used to listen to rap but then i realized how retarded it was getting. who wants to listen to something where people brag about how nice their cars or bitches are. Rock is better!!!
