2023 Music Journey Into Outer Space
A Brief Bit About My Music History
I grew up listening to 70’s, 80’s, 90’s, and early 2000’s music. My dad has been a major influence on my music tastes, having introduced me in my childhood to the wonderful and wacky sounds of new wave and the iconic 70’s and 80’s soft rock and pop songs. I didn’t know who exactly I was listening to back then, but as I grew up, I always remembered them and liked that kind of music. Growing up in the 90’s and early 2000’s, I was naturally exposed to the music coming out at that time. I distinctly remember listening to Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera, Ricky Martin, and NSYNC on CDs. Interestingly, I never fully took to the music of my own era. I loved the sound of the 80’s. When I was a teenager, I started really paying attention to who and what specifically I was listening to as a kid. Hall & Oates, Journey, Huey Lewis and the News, Chicago, Barry Manilow, Genesis, REO Speedwagon, Simply Red, A Flock of Seagulls, Tears for Fears, Cyndi Lauper, Spandau Ballet, Talking Heads, Styx, Air Supply, and an endless list of so so so many more. I did have some other distinctly different music periods in my life but, from my childhood to 2022, the main music I listened to and preferred was from the decades before my birth.
