New random thought of tonight - Last night I babysat this little 3 year old boy next door: his parents said I could put some music on for him, so I saw they had Darkside of the Moon, and I put it on. The little kid loved Money so much that he danced to it the whole time, and asked me to play it again. It's an amazing sight to see a self-unaware 3 year old dance in 7/4 to a song as old as his parents.

Aw - so cute! Not an easy time signature to dance to either. I used to dance to Sparks 'Something for the Girl with Everything' when I was little. Youth knows no shame!

Ha yeah it was a precious moment, and I'm really not a kid person. They're fine, but when you're 21, the last thing you want to be doing is watching after a small child. But this was really fun to see - and to think I was worried that the CD might be a little scary or weird for a little kid. Wrong.

Aww man, I wish I had that kids taste in music when I was that age. I hate my taste up to like a year ago. Oh and I wish I wasn't too easily annoyed by little kids to ever have the chance to see something like that.

I agree!! I wish I was exposed to cooler stuff when I was little, as I listened to really embarrassing stuff in my youth as well! However, a lot of kids grow up listening to parents' music, and older music - and when they become teens, they hate everything their parents listen to and try to find contemporary music to like to fit in and all that shit.
It's an over generalization, but that's how lots of youths rebel - by casting off their parents influence and trying to establish their own. The point to all that was - perhaps if you didn't start liking cool stuff at a later date and had heard it as a child, you might not have an appreciation for it like you do now???

Just a guess. I know that's probably the case with me

If a kid has taste like that at three, imagine what they'll be liking when they're 20! And for me the annoyance thing wears off when you know you can just hand them back to their parents.

Hmm, it would be pretty terrible if I liked Floyd then and Linkin Park now, but if I'd just liked Floyd all along I wouldn't be embarassed about the time I thought Billy Talent was good shit. Oh and I'm a teenager now. It's possible that my taste rebellion is in liking SYL and Cynic and Opeth, but if it is, at least I'm rebelling with the right things.

Shit. The earliest bands I remember being exposed to were Rush and Journey. Though today I only still like Rush.

Metallica was another I was exposed to at a young age, along with Iron Maiden and Judas Priest and such...I kind of had a metal childhood haha

Though I admit, during middle school there was a period where I tried to fit in too much and...listened to some rap... But I never, ever gave up on my rock/metal...it was always there even in those dark times!

Ok - don't shun me - but I liked........Bros.....

I can top that easily... one of the earlier singles I bought was by Leo Sayer.

Also... random... I was sitting here in the quiet and all of a sudden a huge gusty gale just came roaring along outside and now the windows are rattling like blazes and the roof is rumbling.

Yeah - same in Southampton. It was all nice and sunny - then suddenly went black and rainy and the winds gusting again. I hate gusty wind. I'm staying in all day today.

I just imagined Skeksis in 5.1 surround mix and a tear was shed from my eye.

I was wondering, has a huuuuuge Devy Discography poll thing ever been done before?

For example... For eeeeevery album he has released (maybe minus the less heard ones such as Punky Bruster, and Devlab/Hummer), do a separate poll where we vote for our favourite song of each of them... and then the winner of each release goes into a final poll where we vote for our all time favourite song

I suck at forum searching, so it'd be easier just to ask if its been done before, so has it?

If not, why not?... and shall we?

Monty Python is the best comedian ever.

Four wet dreams in one week is impressive.
Three of them on consecutive nights is even more impressive....
Yes.

There have been a number of these over the years.
I guess the thread that currently approximates that which ye seeketh is here: viewtopic.php?f=12&t=7152

It is only a "Top 5", 'cos in the past, people have been seen wailing and gnashing teeth - unable to whittle their choices down to a single track.

Was wondering if someone could tell me how to attach the LastFM lists to your posts?

Cheers in advance.
