Shadow Of A Doubt:

God, I never appreciated how pointlessly banal the lyrics are until now.

I actually had someone try to explain to me that the lyrics were about drugs:

"Now I'm blue (I've O.D.ed and I've died)"

This was a favourite at the Friday night roller skating sessions I used to frequent.

Samhain:

--- Quote from: moj on May 29, 2012, 06:02:21 AM ---Hmm, when I first really got into music it was thrash metal and punk. Slayer, megadeath, anthrax, metallica, suicidal tendencies, DRI, agnostic front, gorilla biscuits, Sepultura,  nuclear assault, overkill, the misfits… But soon after getting out on my own mellowed out and got into all different types of music from jam bands to indie. These day I’m all over the place. I can enjoy music of the 80s I hated when I was younger but now get nostalgic for.

Moj, I liked a lot of the same stuff you did and find I get nostalgic for the hair metal bands (Poison, Cinderella) which I wouldn't have been caught dead listening to when I was younger.

I was 17 when Nevermind dropped.  Still my favourite non-Weird Al album.

--- Quote from: Neutral Milk on May 25, 2012, 05:50:44 AM ---My anecdotal experience (mine along with that of other people I've asked) is that interest in new music seems to wane in mid to late 20s. That doesn't mean interest in specifically modern music, but in discovering new music (which could be old).
--- End quote ---

Funny, I was exactly the opposite. I was an incredible snob and refused to listen to anything but a few favourite albums (Jean-Michel Jarre, Mike Oldfield, Rick Wakeman and a couple of others). It's only as I got older that I've actively gone out and sought new music to listen to.
