myLot reputation of 89/100. kiobug (598) 5 years ago

What kind of music did you grow up listening to? Who did you adopt it from? Do you still listen to the same type of music? How were you excepted growing up because of the music you listened to.

I grew up listening to the same music as my dad. I was and still am a metal head. When I was a kid I would always hand out with my dad and listen to Metallica, Megadeath, Korn, Rage against the machine, etc. We were pretty hardcore. Those bands still bring back memories for me. When I was growing up I was considered a bad kid, hardcore, stoner kind because of the music I listened to and how I dressed. When I started high school I changed a little bit but what I started listening to became and still is a fad. Emo kids, scene kids, ugh. Thats what I was considered and still am considered from time to time. I still listen to whatever music I want to but I have changed the way I dress so you cant judge that part of me.

I grew up with listening and singing to the late 80s to 90s Disney Cartoons soundtracks. My favorites would be soundtracks from The Little Mermaid, Beauty and the Beast, Aladdin, and The Lion King.

Sometimes, whenever me and my sibs would go out for karaoke, we would still sing those songs even if all of us weren't born yet by the time Little Mermaid was released (was it 1984?)

I think it was 1989. They are all great songs and I think a lot of people have a love for them. Thanks for responding.

My Ma listened to Steve Miller Band, Led Zeppelin, Aerosmith, The Police, The Cars, Madonna, Ozzy...just to name a few. My parents "group" was Journey...so I know every song of theirs by heart. My Dad liked the same kind of music that my Ma did, with the exception of Elvis...HUGE Elvis fan. My babysitter was always listening to the oldies channels...or what they call elevator music. My Grandma is a big fan of bluegrass music. All of it has stuck with me and I've grown to find some of my own. I'm such a fan of music, I can listen to just about all of it. I never really had a hard time being excepted.

Sounds like a cool mix. Thanks for responding.

I grew up listening to Rock n Roll. My father was a classical musician therefore he always listened to the Big Bands. As a child, I didn't have much of a choice but as I entered junior high school and high school, I was heavily listening to Elvis, Chubby Checker and others. I still listen to the "oldies" because I am an oldie now but do enjoy country as well.


myLot reputation of 89/100. kiobug (598)  5 years ago

Oldies will never go out of style. I listen to them from time to time. They are timeless.

kinda the same as you, listening to what my dad listened too. we've always bonded thru our love for rock n' roll! haha. it was billy squier, rush, reo speedwagon, ac/dc, def leppard, metallica, chicago, doobie brothers, alice cooper, pink floyd, the beatles, just old school fun. mom tried to get me to listen to barry manilow and neil diamond, but i always went with dad on things, haha! and that was at like 5, i chose billy squier over neil diamond at a very young age! haha! daddy's lil girl i suppose! i still love that music, but love linkin park, afi, breaking benjamin, and 3 days grace...but a lot of today's music is so blah to me, no guitar riffs like they used to play back in the day, so it's great to hear some ac/dc now and then!! i never dressed any of the parts and such, i mean i had my metallica shirts, and def leppard, and scorpions shirts, haha, but i also had a vanilla ice shirt (UGH) and a new kids on the block shirt, cuz my jr high years were more about the "cute boys" i suppose, BUT my dad always supoorted whatever i liked and bought me whatever i was into...haha, even my keith sweat and ll cool j period!! but i always kinda go back to the hair bands, rock ballads, old school type of stuff. i'm actually a lot more open to music though, i like a lot of old 40's swing and some old r&b, and there are a few (limited) country songs i can stand. i love piano music, so i like most i suppose.

I grew up listening to music from the 1970's, 1980's, and 1990's. I grew up listening to anything and everything. I listen to whatever moves me or whatever best expresses my feelings.

I grew up with a wide variety of music in my life. Country, Classical, Gosp and I love watching musicallys. I developed a heavy metal time period, Rainbow, AC/DC, Pink Floyd and all the other ones too.

I think that the variety of music did shape my live and I think it shaped my outlook too. It seems like when we're younger you relate more to music because your mind is more open to the story it tells. You actually are listening to it and experiencing it.

Music can change your mood too. Lifting you up when you're down, pumping you up and start hoppen or mellow you out.

As far a sing a long....well.....today everytime my boy starts a chorus of Ensy wensy spider...climbed up the water spout....sorry...i'm a goner, I've just gotta jump in there too. ;-)

I have been told that metal music is actually better for and more stimulating to young children. That children who listen to metal tend to be smarter then the children who listen to classical music.

My family would not listen to anything but country (real, 1960's country, not the rockified stuff today) When I was nine my step-father introduced me to classical and I was into that until the late 70s, after high school graduation. Then I was introduced to Yes, and it was the only group I could listen to for hours at a time. My horizons broadened during the eighties, and now I can enjoy almost anything, even rap (not the violent racist kind, though)

As a child I had a problem with car sickness on long trips. Of course since my family during that time would only play country music, it was always in the background. Eventually I got over it all right, but there were times I wished they would leave the radio alone, because the symptoms would come back.

So I joke now that there was a period in my life I was allergic to country music.


myLot reputation of 89/100. kiobug (598)  5 years ago

Haha thats kind of funny. You grew up with some interesting types of music. Thanks for sharing and thanks for responding.
