When I was in high school, I always thought my parents were out of touch because they still liked listening to the music they grew up to. I just couldn’t understand it. I thought I would never stop liking the “current” music.
But alas, as I got older, my tastes for music stayed the same. I don’t mind some newer music — Kanye West, Adele, Rise Against, Rascal Flatts — all talented. I don’t want to come off sounding like a grandpa talking about the good ole’ days.
Still, my love for music is probably forever rooted in the 90s.
