First band I started really listening to was AC/DC I was thirteen and like alot of early teenagers thuoght they were the coolest thing ever (to put that in perspective I'm 18 now). I rarely listen to them now though.

That would be "Eraserheads" and I was like 10 years old at that time.

The Beatles Greatest Hits.

My dad had it on repeat when I was a baby.

On my own? Probably, Metallica after my brother bought his first CD(before me) 'Metallica'. Albeit, I've been exposed with copious amounts of 70s ad 80s classic rock from an early age

on my own - it's probably the Bee Gees or ABBA, off the Saturday Night Fever and ABBA The Movie soundtracks

I used to think Van Halen and U2 were the greatest thing ever. Still give them a listen from time to time.

10000 Maniacs - I was 9-10.

Natalie is a winner.

hmmmm.... started when i was about 4, I would listen to records by Black Sabbath, Deep Purple, Alice Cooper, Blue Oyster Cult, Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd and others with my step-dad.

First stuff I got into my self when i was about 13 was Metallica, Slayer, Megadeth, Cannibal Corpse (thanks to Ace Ventura), Napalm Death, Sepultura, Deicide, Testament and others.... basically anything I could find at second hand stores that looked good... I would generally just blind buy CD's based on the the album artwork. Metal was my first love.

Than I would get into stuff like Sex Pistols, Ramones, The Clash, Black Flag, Husker Du, Dead Kennedys and other punk bands, which became my other love.

I think I bought Avril Lavigne's first CD when I was twelve. Earlier I'd listened to Spice Girls, Aqua (age 5-7), boy bands l(N'sync, The Backstreet Boys) Ricky Martin and Britney Spears (age 8-11). Fortunately, when I was 14-15 I discovered classic bands like Nirvana, Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd and some newer ones as well (Placebo, Muse, Arctic Monkeys).

My maths teacher decided to show us The Wall one lesson in 10th grade - it blew my mind and inspired me to explore the rest of the Pink Floyd discography. (The rest of my class hated the film (especially the girls) and said things like "This is crap, can't we watch High School Musical instead?". I remember it being annoying, but it was still an awesome experience.)
