Drake Bell, Rick Springfield, Never Shout Never, Rob Thomas, and Motley Crue. Not a bit of shame.

Then you are missing out on a lot of much, much better stuff.

Merzbow, actually no not really.

For me it'd have to be Paramore, they are the only radio-friendly rock band I listen to. Hayley's voice matched with the Farro brothers guitar and drum parts respectively are some of the most unique rhythmically and stylistically.

Say you'll never leave.

i really like elton john, it really sticks out on my ipod but some days i just love listening to elton john's greatest hits....he has one of the best voices ever

I know that when I was in school people who didn't know me generalised me as a metalhead, because I had long hair and hung out with people who actually did listen to a lot of metal. Those people were and are surprised to learn that the bulk of what I like isn't really like that.

That's ultimately what led me to covet bands like Green Day, blink-182 and Foo Fighters in such high regard. Those tastes expanded with every passing week, as I made it a goal to discover and listen to everything that appealed to me. Most of what I still love today did come during the time I was listening to Limp Bizkit & Staind -- and I suppose it was nice to have a balance in the midst of listening to chaos & notoriously disliked bands.

Good to see you back!

I grew up on Tupac and Biggie, 80's rock/pop, a lot of rock bands, like AC/DC and Queen, and pretty much every kind of music that came out in the 90's, so it's no surprise to me that my taste in music is all over the place.

I have all 3 Taylor Swift albums.
