Then and Now - Have your musical tastes changed
If you think back to the first music you bought and listened to and the music you play today, can you see virtually no change, a progression of similar stuff or a total switch of style?
I mostly bought Mariah, Elton, Witney and some heavier Metallica and Nirvana but I listened to my parents oldies and Folk songs. I resisted the Boy bands, Dance and Rap, eased off on the heavy Rock but still seek rocking Pop from solo artists and I still chill on my Folks old stuff. How about you?

My musical taste had to change to keep up with the times and the top 40 when it comes to the cover band work I do.
As far as my own musical taste;
As a kid my dad played old school country, and he tried to get me to play country. I insisted on playing Rock. Now I find that country has kind of morphed into a light rock with a twang and it's not all that bad. There are so many genres now and I find that a lot of them can be narrowed back down to Rock. I really enjoy the true honesty and writing of the Indie people here. My real love is Fusion Jazz though.

I still enjoy the stuff I liked when I was young. As time has gone on, I've learned to appreciate some stuff that I didn't like back then. I don't think there's a genre that I don't like at least a couple of tunes.

I like more than I liked back in the day. A bit like food.
I used to pretend, even to myself, that I didn't like some things because I wanted to look cool. Since I stopped caring I've had a lot more to choose from, and I love listening to all of it.

I loathed the Beatles... until I became a musician.
Other than that I've stayed pretty consistent on loving old stuff and new stuff alike, but usually not falling for about 30 of the top 40.

Hi Amanda..I still like what i liked then,but my taste is kinda constantly expanding to encompass more..altho its mainly 60s music lol
I get really obsessed and fal in love with with certain types of music-try and take in vibe,style and creativity what i can from it,then move to a different type of music and do the same..
Thats the brilliance of the net and places like youtube..Its a whole education if you want it to be..
Recently on youtube i've been making huge playlists of Motown and the last 3 weeks its been late 60s/early 70s Brazilian Tropicalia...A mix of psychedelia and bossanova and samba-its so magical,free and creatively inspiring..
The next thing for really exploring and investigating is probarbly gonna be 60s French Pop

My musical tastes have broadened and expanded since I FIRST got my taste of The Beatles, Simon & Garfunkel, Johnny Cash, Janis Joplin, and many others; back in the day. It is my life work & hope that they continue to do so, as I grow as a person, and musician.
Really enjoying this thread, Amanda.

Hi Amanda. I still love the same music. I've always loved interesting lyrics and melodic sound in a variety of genres. I love classic. I love jazz and pop well done. I love just drumming songs and good instrumentals. I love folk rock and Americana. I have always had a love of good vocals no matter what genre. I'm not overly fond of country, never have been but I think their are some great country singers out there. I have never liked heavy metal, the kind with just screaming and no real melody. I didn't like it as a teen and I still don't. It gives me anxiety. So really I guess nothing has changed. :-) deb
