Your favourite music from back in the day (2 Viewers)

[yoddle]

Pretty much a thread to post up what music that you were into as a kid, or that defines your growing up. I guess alot of that music comes from stuff my brothers and sisters liked (i have 5 siblings), so there's heaps of random stuff like:

- Alanis Morissette
- anything by Savage Garden
- Shania Twain (lulz)
- Horses by Daryl Braithwaite
- an old Hottest 100 CD with Say What by 28 Days and Betterman by John Butler.
- Jewel


Or actually really shit songs from back in the day which you secretly harbour a strong love for, e.g.

Spice up Your Life by the Spice Girls

Feel free to post video clips cos they can be quite hoolarious but i can't cos i have dial-up grgrgrgr

Killing Heidi (everytime Mascara was on the radio my mum used to turn the volume down when Ella swore, haha), Jamiroquai, Savage Garden, Green Day (we had to sing Good Riddance for a school concert item in year one, heh), Nirvana, Blink 182, Incubus, Matchbox Twenty and *Nsync.
Oh and I guess Van Morrison and Crowded House can be included too because I started listening to Van when I was in year five and Crowded House have always been a favourite in my household.
And Blow Up the Pokies by the Whitlams.
I have a whole heap of burnt CDs somewhere with the random music I used to listen to. I just can't seem to find them.
I think the first album I ever bought with my own money was either Present by Killing Heidi or More Than You Think You Are by Matchbox Twenty. Before that all I had was a load of burnt CDs and singles.

Eiffel 65 - I'm Blue, Still an awesome song

[theism]

oh how i despise those 'so fresh' cds.

what, you don't have the intelligence, nor the autonomy to choose which music sounds good, so you let the record companies do it for you?

hah!

 

[Cinnamonster]

Eiffel 65 - I'm Blue, Still an awesome song

[youtube]68ugkg9RePc[/youtube]

Wasn't that song number 1 in the charts for about eleven weeks?

 

[Absolutezero]

Wouldn't surprise me. It was in the charts for a while.

Back in the day, I loved 70s/80s music and still do. Nowadays, I listen more to classical/romantic/20th century music and a bit of jazz :wave:

Definitely not into Chinese pop ballads like my mum is
