Did you ever pretend to like a group just to fit in with your peers? If so who?  |

| Some people like a group or singer when they are younger ,simply because everyone else likes them. When I was a young girl, the trend was to like The Osmonds or David Cassidy. I liked both a little bit because the music was good but I wasn't a screaming wreck or anything If I saw them on the TV. Later on it was The Bay City Rollers whom all the girls swooned over. Secretly I liked The Smiths and Simon and Garfunkel but that wasn't something to be admitted out loud in a room full of girls. What was the trend when you were a teenager or what is it where you live now and who is your secret (really best) musician. | | | | | |

| | I don't think this has ever happened to me...I enjoy listening to most types of music anyways, so I don't usually need to pretend to like any one group in particular...I think it's alright as long as you enjoy the same genre...Right now where I live, different cliques like different things, but a LOT of people seem to like Coldplay... | | | | | | |

| | Maybe it is more a young persons thing(not saying you are old LOL). I notice a lot of the younger girls on facebook talk about the talent contest singers from TV and when I listen to them myself, a lot of the time ,they can't actually hold a tune so I think it is maybe worse now than in the 1970's when I was a teenager. I always found boys were more likely to tell you who they honestly liked to listen to, I think it might have been because they were not really expected to 'fancy' the singers or die of shame. | | | |

| | I Guess we are all victims of peer pressure at one time or another. Even at work ,people were very insistent about having a drink at Christmas and being teetotal, I don't ever touch it. That isn't because I don't want to be friendly or sociable it is just a conviction that I keep. I really don't mind who has a drink but I don't want one myself. | | | |

| | Hi there :) Well yes, I currently experience that thing actually. A lot of people are so up to Lady Gaga but personally I just don't like her. It's not just her. I don't know if I'm just a 90's junkie but MOST songs in the mainstream nowadays doesn't make sense. I'm not saying all because I would say that I love some songs of Taylor Swift but most song lyrics and rhythm nowadays doesn't make sense..like those of Lady Gaga. All my peers are so into her but me, I don't really like her. I haven't tried liking a specific singer just to fit in to the hype these days and probably.. won't do it. Well I don't know. Well, maybe if a singer can be "likable" I can pretend to love him/her too. Maybe I'd give it a try ;) I'm not closing my preferences to certain singers/ celebrities only.. :) | | | | | | |

| | I used to like the Beatles but it was the mid 1970's .Other girls laughed when I told them, they thought the Beatles were old. Boys at school however, liked the Beatles just as much as I did. Sometimes it is a gender thing, sometimes it is an age thing. After all, people will say oh yes Tom Jones is good but to me, he was quite an old man when I was a teenager and so I cant see it. LOL we are all different I suppose and should just like what we like and let other people like their own choices too. | | | |
