What age did you really find out that you loved music?

Actually I think Ok Computer is a good album to start with. Better than NSYNC...

No comments please.

These two songs I would sing them far too much.

It's hard to fathom that there was ever a time in your life that you were not pratically into Franco and Pepe Kalle music very much. You pratically burned those two names into the mind of every MB member.

I was probably 7 or 8, I started watching music videos, reading magazine and newspaper ads for CDs, reading music reviews and stuff like that. Then when I was 11 I got the Rock n' Roll Encyclopedia and read it so much that it fell apart and I had to get another one...

When I heard the Beegees greatest hits.

I'm thinking that I was somewhere around 14 or 15. It's strange. I just got into high school and saw that everyone else loved music, and I had a friend who kind of liked Metallica, and so I turned on my alarm clock's radio and rolled around the dial and found a rock station and low and behold a song came on and I thought in my mind that this is Metallica, or might be, and it was indeed: King Nothing from Load. I bought a CD player, I bought a 1st album on CD, Load, and it went on from there...

Is that strange, or is it just me?

Probably when I first got Spotify around four years ago. Then when I made my last.fm account a year later. I began to bookmark albums I wanted to listen to, do more research into artists and look up reviews.

The problem with using Spotify and rapidly going through albums without really digesting them (other than specific ones I particularly loved) I never truly gained an appreciation for what I was listening to.

I then decided to ditch Spotify in favor of just downloading music (which currently stands at 400GB on my external hard drive) which has helped me a lot in terms of finding artists that I truly appreciate.

Obviously I had loved music before this, but I had not been one to explore, quite content with my digest of XFM (indie rock radio station), mainstream Hop Hop and a few classics.

My parents are musicians and audiophiles, so I'm pretty sure that I was digging music from the womb.
