A question

[ericcoleman]

I am in an argument on an email list at the moment (surprise, I know).

My point, though a lot of other things, has been that most people's musical tastes are formed from about 15-22, and most people never listen to much more than what they listened to during that time.

So, how have your musical tastes changed as you have gotten older?
Have they changed as you have gotten older?
Is there something new and nifty that you think I would like?
Do you think I am full of it (about this)?

i've always heard this as one's musical tastes are solidified by the time they turn 27. like the music they like by the time they turn 27 is pretty much the type of music they will prefer to listen to for the rest of their lives.

as i've gotten older, my musical tastes have gotten far away from rap and R&B and gotten extremely ecletic. i can listen to basement jaxx, three 6 mafia, NIN, and the mighty mighty bosstones all on the same playlist and not have it bother me. of course, this means that not a lot of people like riding in a car with me because i'll always find the one type of music that annoys them.

new and nifty? morrisey's you are the quarry.
