Man, between Yellow Submarine and THomas the tank Engine, that guy had a monopoly on my childhood.
Oh, and a shitload of mainstream radio, but let's not go into that.

I'm too old for Thomas but also found The Beatles and particularly Ringo's Beatles' songs (esp Yellow Submarine) to be awesome.
I also really liked that weird one hit wonder song - Friends and Lovers - "I think it's so groovy now that people are finally getting together!" "Reach out in the darkness" and all that.

Also - Cat Stevens, The Wiz, and CSNY.

PacoSees:
Beatles - Twist & Shout
and someone doing a cover of "Bear Necessities" from The Jungle Book.

Best song ever.

dancarter:
Early on, it was definitely something my parents played.  A lot of records, and some truly bizarre ones, at that.  ABBA, The Bee Gees(pre-disco, as was my dad's like for them), Simon and Garfunkel.
There was some Nana Mouskouri also, The Irish Rovers and a very bizarre duet record a called Perhaps Love that featured Placido Domingo and....John Denver.  It's astounding.

Later, I was into things like Bon Jovi and Motely Crue (it was the 80's and they were still considered somewhat dangerous). 
I freely admit to getting into Industrial as a teenager because no one else was listening to it, but it's become a life long love now.

Caspian:
Elton John  was the shit when I was 6 or so. That and Creedence Clearwater Revival. I then got into Metallica, AC/DC and Megadeth when I was 11, so I guess they'd count too.

Jposh:
Whatever my mom and dad played in the car...

Metallica
Linkin Park
The Beatles
Rammstein
The B-52s
That "What if God Smoked Cannabis" song
Tracy Chapman - Behind the Wall, and probably a few others
Creedance Clearwater Revival
Bob Marley

And tons more that I can't remember, but will add as I remember.
