That Wallflowers album and their song "One Headlight" were extremely popular when they were new.

Fair enough. Never knew.

When I was a few years younger I never even heard of them. Like zero mention whatsoever.

That was their only really popular album. (Breach) and Red Letter Days were known, but mainly because everyone remembered them from Bringing Down The Horse. They're pretty much forgotten now, which is a shame, because Rebel, Sweetheart is my second favorite album ever.

No Sleep Til Hammersmith (Live) - Motorhead

Not representative of my age

I think I got Smash and Dookie on cassette when I was really young.

Imagine listening to "Bad Habit" when you're six or seven years old.

There they were in a pile. A pile of little arms. And I remember... I... I... I cried. I wept like some grandmother. I wanted to tear my teeth out. I didn't know what I wanted to do. And I want to remember it. I never want to forget it. I never want to forget. And then I realized... like I was shot... like I was shot with a diamond... a diamond bullet right through my forehead. And I thought: My God... the genius of that.
