Music taste of your parents

nebbie [Edit] [Delete] 09:19, 12 January '16

My parents don't care much for music. Long car journeys were soundtracked by power ballad CDs -- the power of love, Meat Loaf etc.

Music was never really played at home. Their CD collection consisted of Chicago, Billy Idol, Heart and Take That, which says a lot about their ambivalence.

Only later did I discover that my dad was a new romantic. All the music he bops to, when he hears it on the radio or in a supermarket or whatever, is full of synth.

Tell me, what music were you weaned to or on?
