Yeh, although at that time I would have said the same for other types of popular music as I largely just heard classical music in that period. The radio stuff I heard didn't appeal to me, and most of that probably wouldn't appeal to me now either really. But if you look beyond what just got the major play on the radio then you can find much more good stuff of course. But there is only so much time to hear music and at that time I was looking at other stuff.

I thought that the only music worth listening to was Classical. Or the Beatles. And anything with rapping was crap. And anything heavier than, say, Creed was pure noise and just awful. Heck, I hated Iron Maiden with a passion when I first heard them.

I had issues as a child. :p

I thought that all songs with the same title were the same song.

I wouldn't say they're the best. My taste has changed since then, a lot. I don't listen to them anymore. A lot of bands trump them IMHO and find it funny that that's all I used to listen to.

-I thought Eminem was the best rapper of all time.
-I thought MCR had real emotion in their songs.
-I thought Jared Leto was one of the coolest guys ever.
-I thought Maynard was a God.

-I thought all types of art music was called classical music.
-I thought American Folk Music Revival of the late 50's/early 60's was called Folk.
-I thought all country music was horrible.
-I thought The Chesterfield Kings were from the 60's.
-I thought Led Zeppelin wrote all their songs.
-I thought The Beatles should not be called The Greatest Rock Band of All Time, now that stuff doesn't bother me about The Beatles, in a way it still bothers about some other bands/artists.
-I would confuse band names like:
The Young Rascals w/ Lovin Spoonful
Hüsker Dü w/ Minute Men
Collective Soul w/ Goo Goo Dolls
30 Seconds to Mars w/ 30 Seconds from Mars
