  I listens to music of all ages. The recent one I like is Taylor Swift You Belong to Me.

  But I will discount rap and techno. Remind me of a night in cold room with some tough cops and working in a factory respectively. Lol..

  And the big names like Beatles, Bee Gees, Abba, CCR, Eagles etc that hogged the 70s chart.

  What were once forbidden are now classic in my grandchildren music appreciation. I guess that must have happened through all generations.
