One down, one to go although my 11 year old has been listening to Italian Pop songs for some reason. Here's hoping he's turning out to be as eclectic as his dad  |
He's 11... aside from the Eminem thing, we're working on it... I have tried to foster a love of Devin Townsend in him, starting with the Ziltoid album and I've since moved on... it seems to be working, he pretty much every DT album i play to him, so good taste is gaining traction in his collection... I agree with you though, steady coaxing into better music can pay off!
