Your age and the song that REALLY hooked you onto music? (listening to music, country)

(it's kind of hard to tell but i'm also wearing a BSSM t-shirt in my avatar too hehe)

Yeah my mates used to think i was pretty gay as i had a few posters of them all topless and stuff.

The Beatles, "Get Back", when I was 11 years old, I really started to take music more seriously after hearing this song.

Still a really good album, too bad they never came close to that again.

Well, it was As I Lay Dying's song The Darkest Nights and it was when I was 13. I hate AILD, but I do have to give credit to them for giving me a huge interest in music.

Sum 41's Fat Lip, or any song on that All Killer No Filler Album. Fell in love with it when I was 7 or 8, and just kept on looking for more music.

Nirvana - Smells Like Teen Spirit

I was a huge Nirvana fan when I was a kid.

I was always listening to music thanks to my parents, the song I loved the most as a child was "that strawberry song" (Strawberry Fields Forever - Beatles)

But what probably did it for me and got me seriously in to music was Linkin Park's entire Hybrid Theory album. It was all downhill from there.
