lets hear em!

they live secretly at the back of your mp3 collection for you to sing to when youre sure noone else is around. now and then you find a fellow sufferer you can share this hidden passion excitedly with. i know... i know... (i know all you know... Guru Jakoz!)

so out with it! Bring on billy joel! elton john! meatloaf! blondie!
Give me dire straits, don mclain, tim finn, beethoven and *gasp* honkey tonk piano and the ghostbusters INSTRUMENTAL till my ears bleed!

Time to step out of the musical closet! :D:):D:):D

(ps... elvis and beatles both suck ass!! =D =D)
 
My entire Motown collection, KC and the Sunshine band, Elton John - sorry, Sir Elton John and that track off the Pulp Fiction track 'Lets Stay Together' by Al Green.
 
simon and garfunkle!! (though they really are exceptionally talented and wrote some amazing songs....bridge over troubles water is beautiful)

that's the only CD I actually own of my parent's music though. But I know all the words to just about every single john denver, conway twitty and reba mcintyre song lol
 
Paul Simon
Bay City Rollers
Creedence Clearwater Revival (but I think they're cool)
 
Creedence Clearwater Revival is nothing to be ashamed about :)

Elvis Presley - I grew up listening to this thanks to mum - if it wasn't coming out of the stereo it was on TV :\
 
Aaaarrgghhhh!

Thanks to my Dad I know just about every John Denver, Buddy Holly, Neil Diamond and Richard Clayderman album ever released. The pain, the pain!

I own a Neil CD though as it reminds me of good times with Dad - sits in that little used section of my CD rack along with Queen, The Doors, The Beatles, Live and Nick Cave8)
 
It wasn't a particular band it was a compilation: Jukebox Giants 6 double sided tapes from hell, with nothing later than 1966. On long car trips this was the bane of my existence, wish i'd known about pot or benzos then so i could sleep through the torment! Of all the bands on that the biggest fuck you has to go to Tammy Wynette- Stand By Your Man (die you yokel bitch, cept i bet your dead already.... stay in your grave, give it all the decay you can!)

Also not fond of the Lion King soundtrack- my sister made me listen to it around 7.8*10^99 times (can you feel the glove tonight, it is strangling you if i hear that song again!) Why couldn't simba and that other lioness get jiggy to a porno track by Isaac Hayes
 
damn, you guys are lucky, try:

Jerry Vale
Nana Mouskouri
Khamal
Engelbert Humperdinck
Glen Campbell (god I hate Rhinestone Cowboy)
ABBA

8(

yea, my parents are pretty old
 
Engelbert Humperdinck - would you believe thats not his real name, he actually chose it! 8)
 
i can't really say i'm that embarassed by it, but it's certainly not *typical* music for my age group :)

john farnham
michael jackson
a bit of old ac-dc
abba
 
probably the most embarrassing is the travelling willberries (sp?), it had roy orbison and george harrison in it, and the music sounds really corny but when i hear the songs i gotta stop everything and listen to them, and yeah it really looks fuckt up 8( Cat stevens, who i ended up liking too, and celiene dion & neil dimond both of whom i'll never like, sorry but you cant polish shit.

the rest arent that bad, and i've bought alot of of the artists albums on my own initiative: Beatles (not the early rock 'n roll stuff tho), chuck berry, the shadows, HENDRIX, deep purple, frank sinatra, cream, beethoven, vivaldi, rachmaninoff, verdi, stravinsky, blah blah blah...
 
Ive done it diff
i started listening to Peter Gabriel (nothing to be ashamed of here)
and now my parents blare it out whenever they can
and it shits me
i dont wanna listen to his fucking music 24/7
only when i feel like it
 
i actually got my parents in credence

and ive always liked the doors (they havent)

they liked the bee gees, dr hook and hot chocholate and i hate all 3 *shudders*

something that my parents listened to and that i actually like is 'the eagles' and 'abba' tho

Its a toss-up between you and Smileyfish but you win.

Your prize is a used syringe...but it belonged to Phreex mannnn!
 
my parents and grandparents influenced my musical tastes (I say both cause i have young parents, my grandparents are only 58 this year), i still like pretty much everything but some of the more memorable ones that I still listen to on occasion:

blondie (i so wanted to be debbie harry when i grew up), the baby animals, transvision vamp, dire straits, bon jovi, rolling stones, beatles, elvis, freeda payne, the nolan sisters, dusty springfield, pat benatar...

ok that's enough embarrassment for one night.
 
My mum got me into music by playing Michael Jackson records all the time ('Off THe Wall', The Jackson's records).
Then when 'Thriller' came out, she bought it for me (yeh right, for me ;D )
I took it to kindergarten one day, and we all had a dance to it. See, I was a DJ long before it was considered cool :D .
Of course, my parents also listened to alot of appalling 70's and 80's music. BUt damned if I'm gonna be conditioned into listening to Phil Collins! :p
 
i have a thing for that one chuck mangione track
my parents would blast it all the time

otherwise, they dont have specific music taste
theyre more radio people ick!
 
quit whinging ppl :X you had it easy

we drove to qld yearly and all dad would play was the same two tapes of spanish religeous songs, even worse the guy sounded like his voice was breaking. Same tape for 4 years, but now im 18 so i can go up myself listning to technolius =D
