As a teen, I loved rhythm and blues, and yes, I do listen to it now.

Well, I grew up in the 40s and 50s, my father had a huge collection of music of the 30s and 40s and thought rock and roll was garbage, so mostly I listened to music of the 30s and 40s and the baladeers of the 50s (Perry Como, Vic Damon, etc.) Yes, I still enjoy that music. I missed the whole rock'n'roll era because I was so intimidated by my father.

[Mamacita]

I listened to a little bit of everything, just as I do now.

[Thumper]

Top 40 stuff...I still like it, but I also like alternative, classical, hard rock, and Barry Manilow.

I listened to what my older brothers listened to, the Beatles, Steppenwolf, Three Dog Night, Moody Blues, The Who, Led Zepplin, and lots more. And yes, I still listen to all of that music! I also listen to today's music!

I love it all!!

[Jennie]

I mostly listened to pop and rock on the radio. I still listen to rock.

[James]

Hard Rock, and yes, but I have grown to appreciate more of almost everything else

[Marisa]

The 70's was such a variety rock,pop,disco, etc and yes I still love variety now - classical included but still no COUNTRY music.

[Janet]

I listened to the Beatles as a kid...as a teenager, I listened to Bowie, T.Rex, Chuck Berry, and others like that. I still listen to that now, plus Zeppelin, who I didn't like back in the day. I loved 80s rap, but not the crap now. Still not a fan of country or opera.

i listened to all the 60's stuff. i still love it.

Thank you Michele for choosing my question.

I listened to Opera every weekend because my Italian mother loved it. It took me decades to appreciate it, but I have no opera recordings that I listen to now. I love pretty much all music, even some rap. I did "grow up" on rock 'n roll.

I listened to classic rock in the 80's for the most part- hard rock etc & I am still pretty much all rock & roll though I'm not stuck in one decade or genre of rock - I like everything from 50's through current rock music (no rap- hip hop or country though)

[michelle]

soft pop, 80s music.. I still love 80s music

[monique]

punk, hard rock, metal, early 80's synth pop stuff, 80's goth stuff...

yep, still listen to it all!

[Paige]

all kinds, and yes I still do like it all

[Shephard]

As I kid... I listened to Olivia, ELO, Donna Summer, Queen, ABBA, Culture Club... are we noticing a pattern here?

Everything except COUNTRY. And I mean everything. I had to watch Lawrence Welk on Saturday evening with my mom.

[Roland]

I listened to the Beatles, Dylan, CCR, Warren Zevon, all of which I still love. I don't think I ever "outgrew" anything I used to like-lucky me!

[flleenie]

I remember alot of different music, but mostly the Beatles. My 1st album ever was Three Dog Night, which my brother gave me on my 9th b-day. I never got to listen to it because he took it right back. It seems that was the album HE really wanted, but had to get me a present...Go figure!! (I love Three Dog Night!)

[leslie]

mostly musicals, which I still love. But in high school I got into Country music, which I am no longer a fan of.

[panthergirl]

Rock... and I still do, although I love alternative music now. I also developed a love for classical music and opera in my 20s (still love it).

The only kind of music I despise is country.
