List got longer this A.M ;D For some reason 'Lets go all the way' by Sly fox was one that hooked me as a kid. Always made these shitty mix tapes and same tunes got on. Phil Collins Into the night, Radioactive by The Firm.

The very first Beatles song I got hooked on was this....

Just the nice guitar work, the feedback buzz to start it off, the harmonizing...I celebrate The Beatles entire catalog of music, but 'I Feel Fine' really got the hooks in me.
The Doors - Riders on the Storm
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k9o78-f2mIM
This song (along with the middle portion of The Beatles - 'A Day In The Life' ) had this eerie vibe to it, Jim Morrison was great at using a mishmash of nonsensical words to paint a picture in your mind and when you're a youngster that kind of thing really gets to you. Those songs were almost scary to a point, like if there was a "horror music" genre those two would feature. Thank God it took me a while to hear "The End" by The Doors because that is creepy as well....and for a couple of reasons.
And in my own era, growing up in the 1980's

Everything about the music, the video, the clothes Michael Jackson was wearing, everything about 'Billie Jean' was fucking amazing
and when I got to the 1990's

Still love some Weezer, great band....bunch of geeks but great band. I wore that CD to shreds, the entire blue album is worth a listen.
That Hendrix song was great too. If I had only saw your posts on music & Boxing I'd say that Kabong dude is cool as shit. But unfortunately I ran into his politics posts. :play:

Well I wouldn't say blew my mind or anything like that but the song Aquarius has gotten hold of me ever since with it's very positive vibe, sort of new age-y sound, though a bit retro sounding by today's standard, but still brings me this positive-high feeling, if you know what I mean. And, being a war freak, the song '19' did catch my heart a bit during the 80's. Growing up during the Vietnam war and watching American soldiers train in Okinawa when the island was still under U.S. control sort of left a huge imprint on me...

I'm just a man Brockton....a man with common sense, with the thought that simplicity and perfection can be the same thing, and with a love for experiences which I am lucky enough to share with friends and sometimes even with friendly rivals.
