Following on from a theme in another thread, what music do your parents listen to? Do you think they have any influence on what you listen to? Do you have any influence on what you listen to? IS THE MOON REALLY MADE OUT OF CHEESE?

My dad thinks Squarepusher's jazzy stuff is the shit. He also likes Hundred Reasons and Biffy Clyro. I am glad I was born, otherwise he would still be listening to Garth Brooks.

Miss Flashheart:
My dad listens to 60's stuff like The Kinks, The Who, The Beatles, etc. My mom listens to UB40 *shudders*. But they both like classical music and Queen. My dad's taste in music has influenced me a lot more than my mom's, which has near enough done stuff all to my taste.

McTaggart:
Parents, music? what? Neither of mine seem to notice music at all. Other than a 'Turn that crap down' spoken much more politely.

nancygirl:
I think my parents have been big influences on my musical taste. I grew up hearing stuff like U2, Robert Cray, John Lee Hooker, Bob Dylan, the Beatles, Dire Straits, Santana, Patsy Cline etc etc and so now I really enjoy listening to them and anything that really sounds like them.
I think my big brother helped a little also introducing me to NIN, Strapping Young Lad and Skinny Puppy and so on.

Praeserpium Machinarum:
My father: Rolling Stones with the odd Queen. He is not really a music buff.

My mother: Carole King, Enya and Loreena McKennitt etc. She likes Eric Clapton, she has Pilgrim and that is that I think. Our whole family is seeing a open air show with him this summer. And of course Beatles, we have the Help! vinyl somewhere. Assorted Motown and oldies pop, Mamas and Papas and so on.

Bizarrely enough they both like Coheed and Cambria, because Welcome Home was used in an TV commercial about Womens Handball World Cup.
After inquiring the bandname from my little brother(who also likes them), he got Good Apollo and so on and so forth as christmas gift.

I can safely say they haven't had much influence on me except that I also like Queen, Loreena McKennitt and Lisa Ekdahl(swedish singer-songwriter).
My brothers have been more influential. But nowadays I only really know one person who listens to remotely the same as me, namely my little brother.
But he has that whole hardcore/metalcore/emo thing going which I just don't like with the exception of a few selected bands.
