I mean it really depends on what music their parents listen to about 90% of the time

I didn't realize until adulthood that some households don't really prioritize music. My parents were always playing and telling me about the music they grew up with (classic rock, because I'm old and they're older)

Every once in a while I'll meet a peer who's like "oh yeah we didn't have a lot of records" and I'm like oh that checks out with you not knowing the velvet underground

But I try not to be a jerk about people not knowing stuff, because no one needs that.

My dad never listened to music from his own era. He only ever listens to classical music. I'm not really a fan of music from his era, but I probably know more about it than he does.

Yup. I was really quiet old before I heard much Elvis or Michael Jackson. My parents just never had it on in the house. My best friends dad had a tattoo of Elvis, but still.

My daughter loves Michael Jackson.

It’s funny, I never much liked his music before aside from a couple big songs. Now that I’m always hearing it, I regularly catch myself singing along and enjoying it.
