I just realized that this year marks the 20th anniversary for some of my favorite albums from my tween/teen years:

1991: Nirvana's Nevermind, Pearl Jam's Ten, Metallica's black album.

What're your thoughts on music of your youth and how it makes you feel today?

You think you feel old? Hahahaha! I saw the Beatles perform for the first time on the Ed Sullivan show. Granted I was only four year old. But I do remember it.

My teen years consisted of Queen, Aerosmith, Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, Cheap Trick, etc etc.

So far I've been lucky (since 1995) that one of the radio stations still has a 'Friday Night 80's' music program (childhood years - I never got into the grunge of the 90's in my teens). However I'm not sure how much longer they'll continue it. I'm pretty sure their regular listeners are thinking the same way about the 80's as I thought about the 60's. Most of them were born after the 80's were over. :-/

That's the music I grew up listening to... though I can't count myself among their contemporaries. (Great classic rock station here growing up)

Oh my God... that thought hadn't even occurred until now. They ARE that old. I AM that old... Wow. You're talking about my high school years there, man.

I still pull out the music every now and again, it's good stuff, but I'd never want to go back to that time.

Well my teen years were not that far back, about 6-7 years. All I remember is thinking AFI was the best bad ever.

When I was age 3-13 my favorite musician was none other than the Dark Prince : Ozzy Osbourne! I grew up watching an old VHS tape that was filmed on the year I was born in 1988. Ozzy had Blonde hair was all Glam and wore the most kick ass Outfits, you know, before the dark one started to look like a grandmother (That black hair, I just sigh every time!). I don't care what anyone says, I loved those sparkly outfits, I'd wear one. Hell I'll wear one to the Eden BBQ If I had one... sadly I could never find any replicas. Long line "The Ultimate Sin"!

The Ultimate Ozzy!

If anyone happens to know the name of the particular outfit let me know!
(This isn't exatly the one i'd want. Maybe the one from the "Killer of Giants" the blue one! or the Ultimate Sin/Crazy Train/Iron Man Yellow One. The Mr. Crowley Red one rocked too. Don't forget about the Grey You never know why we rock one (also Bark at the Moon). The one pictured is his Shot in the Dark one.

Here is a clip from the Movie... by clip I mean the whole F$#$# song!
People dis the old Glam Ozzy, but they are just crazy!

Shot in the Dark
Ultimate Sin
Lightning Striking
Mr. Crowley
Killer of Giants!

I get all nostalgic when I listen to the oldies!

My tween/teen years music dates before yours, so if you feel old then I must be ancient! But to answer your question, I still listen to it and still shred it on the guitar, and it still makes me feel the same. It *does* make me judge today's music a little harshly though, and it's sad when younger people take a new album from an old band and judge them by it. So many of them were MUCH better "back in the day."

I think when Alan was a teen they were still smacking sticks against rocks and grunting for music though. (Just joking. He's not *quite* that old. LOL!)

To me Ozzy is King. Always has been, always will be. Not Elvis, not Michael or anybody else- Ozzy. I have everything he's ever put out, both with Sabbath and solo, and dammit I still miss Randy!

Well I was 19 when those came out, almost out of my teens. I grew up on Queen, Aerosmith, Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd and Cheap Trick like NuMe. Also Ozzy, Deep Purple, Greatfull Dead and Uriah Heep. My brother is ten years older than me so I listened to his music. Metallica is by far my favorite group from my teens but I prefer the older stuff, Garage Days, Master of Puppets and Ride the Lightning being the top three.

I do feel old when I listen the "Classics", but they are not classics to me. They are just GOOD music. I do like some of the new stuff but not nearly as much.

Man... I was listening to Spice Girls in my early teens.

Shania Twain, Brooks and Dunn, Garth Brooks... and Spice Girls!

Yeah, I was born in 87.

I do like Chuck Berry and Elvis though. Just randomly placed in there.

music never dies. i felt my youth was stiffled with the opnions of others and i've truly found my musical soul as an adult. but defintily when 90s music comes on it just reminds me of where i was who i was with.... so yah everyone loves the music they grew up with whether they like it or not.
