I decided for a change to talk about the music that I enjoy. I listen to 60's-80's music, rock, motown, country, soul, glam rock, disco...that kind of thing. My dad loves EDM, house, dance and happy hardcore-I think each of us were born in the wrong generation!
My early years were dominated by my parents playing older music to me, along with albums released in the late 70's and early 80's that they bought. I started school around 1978 so I pretty much grew up on disco and 80's music, which is still a big favourite of mine.

YAY! I see Prince. I have a lot of greatest hits albums as well. They are great ways to add to a collection!
ReplyDeleteI had no idea I had so many until I started looking! I have a ton of Abba-certainly one of my favourites! I'm listening to more music this week as I try to relax each night!
DeleteWe like a lot of the same artists. And I seem to be listening to a lot of the older favorites recently.
ReplyDeleteMy go to sounds are the 80's as I love so much of that era. I have good memories of growing up with all that!
DeleteDM and The Smiths are two of my all time favorites! I grew up listening to Abba, Elvis, and The Beatles, because my dad loves them, and I loved watching The Monkees. They had so many good songs too. They wrote great tunes, but add in some prolific writers, and their catalog is pretty full of hits.
ReplyDeleteIt's great to unwind with a few favourire cds isn't it! Abba is a huge favourite of mine and I have lots of their stuff. I enjoy a lot of 80's stuff as I grew up with all that in the charts.
