I was thinking of making a thread like this!
I remember listening to Hootie and the Blowfish as a little kid, and confusing ALL THE WORDS. Also remember Aerosmith, Bon Jovi, Rolling Stones, and various other people. That's all my parents music though, but it's what I remember hearing in the car. Oh, and I liked to mumble along with songs even though I didn't know the words. Always been singing.
When I was 6, I would dance to Britney Spears' album everyday. First introduction into music sorta kinda I guess? Or well, the first person I liked out of my own free will. Feel free to judge me if you want, but I'll just punch you if you have anything negative to say and then KINDLY point you to the records she's broken. :3c Then of course, more of that 90's stuff like Backstreet Boys, Nsync, Christina Aguilera, need I go on.........
During early 2000's, I didn't have much preference in music. I liked whatever was on the radio really. So it was more Britney, Nelly, Avril Lavigne, random bands I don't care to remember but obviously didn't make any impact on me anyway since I can't remember them. Also really liked Eminem at a young age, mainly cause of my dad. Still like him, of course.
7th grade, I was obsessed with Gavin DeGraw, who is still one of my favorite artists today. Didn't make it as big as I wanted him to be, but he has a permanent place in my heart.
Let's just skip to 8th and 9th grades. That's when I started paying more attention to stuff. Listened to a lot of random stuff this year. James Blunt, Green Day, Simple Plan, Mariah Carey, My Chemical Romance, Gorillaz, Usher, Aqualung, Regina Spektor, The Feeling, Amy Winehouse, The Fray, Adele...anything I saw on Vh1 basically, especially the You Outta Know artists.
10th grade I went all emo and lame and would only listen to Underoath, Deftones, My Chemical Romance, Bullet For My Valentine, Nirvana, Three Days Grace, Foo Fighters, and Breaking Benjamin. I still love Deftones and Nirvana. Don't care for the others though. Breaking Ben is good too though. And Foo Fighters. Definitely Foo Fighters.
11th and 12th grade I straightened back up and BROADENED my HORIZONS and met a musical man. This is when I started listening to The Beatles, Dropping Daylight, Lady Gaga, Modest Mouse, Death Cab For Cutie, Blake Shelton, and...the most important band ever in the history of my life: Kings of Leon. THANKS KLIPPY.
Now today you see me jamming to pretty much everything I've stated so far and a ton of other stuff, like Foster the People, Black Sun Empire, Snow Patrol, Pendulum, The Mars Volta, Christina Perri, Rihanna, She, The Story Changes, Washed Out, We The Kings, Taeyang, Red Hot Chili Peppers, and yeah I'm done you can quit reading.
...Did I answer this right? You have my musical history now. v_v
