Music has always been important, but how young?
Do you really want to be tortured with Paula Abdul, Madonna, and then Boyz 2 Men?
My music tastes didn't get cool until 1993. I skipped around hair metal which I didn't get into until high school (GNR), but as an early 80s kid, Nirvana eventually became my favorote band. They had a lot of songs that were impactful, but of all them my favorite was Lithium. Here it is performed by St. Vincent at the Nirvana Hall of Fame Indiction..
As I got older, after the Mr. Seattle shot himself, I got into darker more "gothic" things like the bad influence 17 year old next door. By 1996 it transitioned to Marylin Manson, White Zombie, Type O Negative, and even Cradle of Filth. I still liked pop, like Semisonic type stuff, and even liked techno, but the dark tastes were the favorite.
It took until 14 or 15 before music got profound. The following music event got me political. Something very traumatic, small-minded, and humiliating happened regarding religious BS, and like a "sign" this performance happened at the right time.
It contributed to becoming really angry at organized religion and oppressive religious people.
It started a rebellious streak that never really ended. Though it's not angry at christian indoctrination anymore.
