She probably thinks my taste in music is probably a little strange too...it's mostly stuff I remember growing up with, and listening to on my big brother's stereo,,good stuff from the seventies and early eighties...ahh good times.    but then she suprises me, by jiving to something I used to hear, that's been revived...glad to know she can enjoy some of my favourite songs. |
you too Lyra? I remember listening to Rick Springfield with my sister and then while having my brother help me with my homework while we listened to The Fixx and his stuff and I loved it. It was quite a shock to find out that when I met my hubby we liked the same kind of music and play it often in the car on trips, of course I had to play some country music from my collection too.
All in all, I think that today's generation just doesn't understand us older folks and the fun we had!
