There are members here very into music, particularly from past decades, so I thought maybe a dedicated thread would be a good idea.
I've lived within 6 decades of music.
My favourite is the 1970s and I think the best (debatable of course).
I've realised since my diagnosis that for 20 years (70s and 80s) music was my 'special interest'.
I've not had such an avid interest since the 90s and in fact, I find the associations with music mostly too painful to be able to listen.
Music is a sure trigger to memories for me and often the associated pain.
So, why the 70s?
Tamla Motown, Soul, Disco, Reggae, Punk, Glam Rock, New Wave....
Fleetwood Mac, Abba, Elton John, Bowie, Iggy Pop, Talking Heads, Pink Flloyd, Velvet Underground, Gary Numan, B52s...
What are your favourite eras and what do you consider the (debatable) 'best' ?
Please feel free to talk about anything music related here including classical.
hi im 34 years old and i absolutely love music, its one of my special interests
music is everything to me, i listen to it everyday i cant do any tasks without having music in my ears.
i have a wide range of musical tastes, i dislike country music
i love the 50s,60s,70s and 2000s
Trance music is my absolute fav genre ive listened to it since i was 8 years old , ive been to two raves and loved it
im noise sensitivebut ive been to countless concerts ive lost count, ive seen many of my fav artists and thats one of my happy places
Raves were great. Can't hack them now, of course. Trance was my thing too, but I'm a lot older.
It's great that you like all those eras too.
My main love is for 80s alternative music.
rave till the grave thats my saying, koko camden is amazing small venue but mighty once all the ravers fill it up
i also like bands like Joy Division, The Cure, Echo and The Bunnymen
Brilliant choices of 80s, there! 3 of my favourites right there! Let's see what you think about the grave when you hit 50 I managed until my 40s
