This morning I was flipping between radio stations and listened to a morning radio show talk about their "music guilty pleasures". The host was talking about how all of his music preferences are a little different and made a point that he felt like your parents directly impact your musical preferences. He went on to say that his parents always listened to the pop music of that time, so he is a huge 70 and 80s fan even today.
It sounds like a silly concept, but as I was thinking about it... it's totally spot on.
From the time we lived in Glen Ellyn (because honestly, I was 10 and I barely remember snippets of stuff from before that), I remember being in the car with my mom listening to the oldies station. Lots of the Beatles, the Beach Boys, and Motown music. I also remember spending time at my grandparents house while my grandpa was playing Frank Sinatra.
And what kind of music do I gravitate towards today.... oldies and pop standards.
It's totally true.
Think about it. What sort of music do you gravitate towards?
