Parent's music taste
 
A lot of people(although a lot less people these days it would seem) say they grew up listening to what the music their parents love and it's influenced their taste. Is this true for you and which artists or genre of music?

Oh yeah, I think your taste in music is directly related to what your parents listened to while you were growing up. I mean, you're obviously going to choose your own music but your tastes would have to be influenced by what you were exposed to as a child.

well mine have made me deffinetly grow up liking bands instead of solo artists and the other kinda genres and what not, they loved hollies, monkees, beach boys etc..and werent really into all the solo artists and stuff (they mainly listened to the music of the 60s and early 70s)

MrGaryy 11-04-2010 01:57 AM

Not at all LOL. My mum listens to like, tradition Irish music LMAO. And my dad isn't really into music at all.

Princess 11-04-2010 02:00 AM

I dunno about mine,they were definitely quite pop people. My dad was all Bruce Springsteen,Van Morrison,Joni Mitchell and so on. My mum was more Elvis and The Osmonds,lol! They always encouraged my love of music.

Shaun 11-04-2010 02:00 AM

My dad was a fan of a lot of bands I am a fan of, but never really played them much past when I was 8.

But they are/were fans of Fleetwood Mac, Pink Floyd, Dire Straits, Bee Gees, Elton John, Lionel Richie...all sorts I suppose.

Twilight 11-04-2010 02:04 AM

My dad fave band is blink182 but he likes 30STM,You Me At Six,Paramore, etc so hes more like me:D

IKR lol

Princess 11-04-2010 02:14 AM

I don't like what my dad listens to now,it's all jazz,although when I'm going around the house singing Proud Mary or Jump he's like 'That's my music,where you hear that?' and I'm like 'Off Glee' :laugh:
My mum loves Take That now,she's seen Queen live and she said Take That were the best live act she's even seen and she's told other people that so I know she's not lying just to make me happy,lol.

My parents listen to a lot of Def Leppard, White Snake, Guns N Roses, Motle-- Anything that can be described as hard rock. I like all of the music they like, and some lighter stuff too. My step-dad's favourite band is Nirvana, he has Kurt Cobain tattooed on his arm and stuff, but he doesn't really listen to them? :|

King Gizzard 11-04-2010 02:20 AM

my dad likes all that il divo cack nowadays

Enid 11-04-2010 05:30 AM

My dad isn't into music really. When he does listen to it, it's only pop music.

My mum, however, likes a bit of everything. The Clash, Blondie, The Specials. Even Marilyn Manson, hahah.

Jords 11-04-2010 05:42 AM

Both similar to me, but my dad used to like metal when he was younger but not really anymore.

Enid 11-04-2010 05:47 AM

I wasn't heavily influenced by my parents. I just sort of branched away from the mainstream in school. My best friend was a goth, and she introduced me to all sorts of music. I mostly thank her for what I like now. :)

Stacey. 11-04-2010 07:32 AM

My mum and dad always listen to the same type of music as me :laugh:
Taylor Swift, Britney Spears, Shania Twain, Westlife, Miley Cyrus... etc
we all love that sort of music - theyre not into the older stuff at all!

CaraRawr 11-04-2010 07:46 AM

My dad loves music, has the biggest CD/record collection I've ever seen LOL. He likes Pink Floyd, Blondie, Guns N Roses, The Rolling Stones, Led Zeppelin, Kasabian, Muse, AC/DC... yeah.

My mum isn't really into music, but she likes Bon Jovi.

xDramatick 11-04-2010 08:17 AM

My parents' taste in music is a tad like mine, but not that similar.

Mum listens to David Cassidy, The Osmonds, & all those older sorta people, and modern artists like Christina Aguilera, Cheryl Cole, and Pixie Lott.

Dad listens to Madonna, Britney Spears, Rihanna, Ke$ha, and loves those random one-hit dance tracks.

InOne 11-04-2010 10:48 AM

They listened to The Pixies, The Smiths, The Cure. Stuff like that.

Zippy 11-04-2010 11:04 AM

Kate Bush is somebody I grew to love directly from my Mothers influence.

And er....thats it I think. You will just grow up hearing it often. But whether you take to it yourself is down to your own tastes. Many kids automatically hate what their parents like.

M X 11-04-2010 01:44 PM

Not really. My mum loves Van Morrison, Luther van Dross, and now she loves James Morrison, Kate Nash etc..

I love Kate Nash too.

Rob 11-04-2010 01:45 PM
