Don't pet the sweaty things!!!!

as a kid I listened to whatever my parents listened to, which was oldies. I think my first tape was a Creedence Clearwater Revival tape. Don't remember which one.

In high school, I started getting into heavy metal and listened mostly to Metallica and Black Sabbath.

In my early 20's and now, seeing as I'm only 20, I listen to much harder metal than in high school. Mostly Iced Earth, Pantera, Cradle of Filth, Down, Superjoint Ritual, and Black Label Society. Good stuff, if I do say so myself.

I can't remember my first aquisition of music...it might have been Bad, by Michael Jackson.

In highschool I listened to a lot of Metallica, Slayer, Pantera, Morbid Angel, etc.

Now (20) I listen to death metal, power metal, old 80's cock-rock that I loved as a young kid, hard techno and hard trance, instrumental rock guitar and the occasional jazz/rock track.

I can't believe I'm admitting this but my first album was RICK SPRINGFIELD!!! Eeeeek! I remember standing in the record store debating between that and Olivia Newton John!

From there, I was a child of the '80s and loved the Police and U2.

Now, I'm a folkie who loves James Taylor, Joni Mitchell, etc. but I notice my father's musical influences in my love for Johnny Cash.

OK, this confirms it ... I really am the nerd of the group

high school was Neil Diamond, Gordon Lightfoot, John Denver, Eagles

College - I expanded my horizons and added in classical and some country (my sister was a real country/western fan and she was the closest relative to me as far as physical proximity - she'd come and pick me up and we'd spend Saturdays' together .... course the radio was turned to her station and she loved Willy Nelson and Waylon Jennings and such)

After college ... got addicted to various kinds of jazz, blues, motown, big band and other 30's-40's music.

Today, I listen to a pretty wide range of types of music and musicians .... usually it's more about the song they sing then the style of music, and about their voice and if it can catch and keep my attention, but Eagles, James Taylor, Tom Jones, Neil Diamond, Gordon Lightfoot all of those still figure pretty heavily in what I love to listen to.

I remember as a young kid really dreading the day I'd become an adult. I assumed that I would, like my parents, no longer like cotton candy, for example, or rock and roll. Instead, I'd be listening to Perry Como and Diana Shore and Frank Sinatra, etc. Luckily I STILL love cotton candy and I STILL love rock and roll. My kids have managed to permanently "borrow" most of my old albums (Doors, Jimi Hendrix, Temptations, Miracles, the first couple of Beatles albums, Jefferson Starship [hey, I'm still givening them my respect! LOL], etc.). They like the old stuff, and luckily we all like the same type of new stuff, too. We share each other's CDs and don't have any fights about what radio station will be on in the car. The only music that neither they nor I can bear is country/country western. Well...I don't listen to rap either, but they do.

First 45: Jenny, Jenny/Miss Ann by Little Richard.
