Who are these people
Are we just posting screenshots now?
My musical tastes have changed dramatically through my life. I think that if you are still listening to the same thing as when you were 14 and now you’re 40, you’re probably lacking curiosity.
I still have all my old music from high school. I very occasionally go back and listen to it but not really.
I’ve found myself looking up music that came out when I was a teenager that I didn’t really listen to. I do not care about present day pop music. I didn’t really then, either. My tastes have often been unstuck in time, in high school I got into Bon Jovi but not Bounce or Have A Nice Day, I went out and bought a copy of Slippery When Wet. The album they released while I was a zygote.
I don’t listen to the radio, not the broadcast bands anyway, I’m not really exposed to a lot of new music, and I’ve kind of stopped caring.
I still have nostalgia for stuff I listened to at 14. But I would say my music tastes solidified more around the age of 25. Fairly broad tastes in music depending on my mood. It’s easier to list bands and music I hate than everything I like. I suspect a lot of people are the same.
When I was 14, “Zombie”, by the Cranberries, was the music of the year.
I still go back occasionally but there’s a lot more to listen. And I’ve discovered other genres since then.
I rarely listen to what 14 year old me listened to.
Mostly because many of my favorite groups hadn’t formed yet 😅
My music taste has expanded and changed quite a bit since I was in HS. Some of the things I liked then still hold up, but I would NOT have liked the things I do now when I was in highschool.
Not everybody is like that. I didn’t hear a lot of pop music until college, and didn’t really develop my own taste until my 20s.
14 year old me listened to a lot of heavy metal variations along with emo rock and that kind of jazz. Now, as a 34 year old man, I still occasionally enjoy some of that, but my music taste has developed and matured, so now I mostly listen to girly pop music.
The metal head to swifty pipeline
I still have love for 3 Dollar Bill Yall and Life is Peachy. But I don’t touch numetal as a genre at all anymore. Once I started to get into Staind and Disturbed or just hearing Nookie… no thanks. An older friend introduced me to Ska and Punk and I’m so glad he did.
Nope! I listened to rap and metal when I was in school. Now, I listen only to Colundi.
Never heard of it. Sounds like good workout music.
It’s good work music; I listen to it all day every day at my job.If you’re actually interested, I will gladly gush about it!
Top 300 artists. Go.

What a boring life that would be, damn.
Nope. Once on a while I might listen to it out of nostalgia’s sake. Otherwise it’s churning through a bunch of garbage on spotify trying to find something decent. My other half otoh is constantly listening to our high school year’s music. It’s all the same, it’s the same top songs from the charts from the same top bands, over and over… It’s boring AF.
Not even a little bit true for me. I listened to pretty much only country at 14 and I don’t listen to any country now, not even the stuff I liked then. By 16 I had switched to mostly rock & alternative. I will still listen to that occasionally, mostly for nostalgia, but it isn’t on any of my playlists. I suspect most everything on my regular playlists came out after I was 30, but it continues to shift forward over time. I suspect eventually most of my current playlist will age out too.
A lot of people are happy enough inside their comfort zone, they’re likely to die there. The people that say they haven’t made good music since the XX’s probably haven’t spent much time searching for music they’d like.
