I think I have all their albums - dad was a massive Smiths fan so it must have been inherited (although where my bro got his J-pop from I've no idea).



I know, a conversation about music often ends in a blank look and a "oh, echo/who/whatever is what my great uncle's into":biggrin: so yeah - glad to see I'm not alone!:h:


My dad definitely played in part in shaping my music taste :tongue: Which I'm very glad about :lol:

Echo and the Bunnymen are my favourite band haha :tongue: but yeah, not alone :smile:

Haha ahh right I see :tongue: Your mum like Bieber?! :lol: my sister likes him actually.... my mum is quite into Bruno Mars actually :lol:

I know, hmm no we had the Bruno Mars phase a while ago:biggrin: some of the stuff (Beatles, Oasis) I like, but most of it is way too poppy. When you mum's "cooler"than you.....!

Yeah, you'd be correct :tongue: That's probably my favourite album of theirs, but then I really like Crocodiles, Porcupine and Ocean Rain too :tongue: I haven't really given their 4th album many listens at all. I like some songs from there rather than the full album :tongue:

It's pretty perfect right:colondollar:... I think we got rid of all our cassettes, looking through the CDs now we have a "best of" Beatles CD, that's it:biggrin: that's the plan, get rich and buy as much music (and shirts) as possible....:h:

Exactly, like CDs are still useful in cars, and vinyls are good quality audio:biggrin: yeah, I'll have to steal it at some point :biggrin: so do I ... Though I also need to save for uni .... But, like, I probably won't want to eat then? I'll have a banging record collection and wardrobe!!!

Ah, I see! Porcupine is great, some very energetic songs on there :biggrin: Quite obscure lyrics, but that's typical Bunnymen haha :tongue: Ocean Rain is great too. The title track is an amazing song :smile: Hope you enjoy! :smile:
