I loved the Spice Girls and Hanson for a couple years until about the age of 11... and then totally forgot about them. Now, looking back, I wonder what was wrong with me. (On the other hand... TLC was the first group/band/artist I really got into, around the age of 8, and I still enjoy their music very much.)

I went from being skeeved out by Prince, as a child, to falling in love with him, thanks to a friend playing a cassette of Purple Rain during a car trip.

Jethro Tull at one point terrified me, mainly due to the Aqualung album cover and song, and now I adore them... with Aqualung being one of my favorite albums.

I went from hating Deerhoof to loving them (thanks to focus on the guys of the band).

Similar to my situation with Goo, Extricate was the first Fall album where I really felt that buying their albums was becoming more a dutiful habit than anything else. I've liked Fall albums since then but never in the way that I liked pretty much everything they did up to I am Kurious Oranj

oh, completely. he doesn't know that titc is CLASSIC.

green magnesium- a lot of folks i know got into deerhoof by listening more to the guys. see them live, though, satomi's so adorable. i'm one who loves her voice, but will say she sounds different and better live.

i used to find bruce springsteen's nebraska album so dull but now that's my favorite.

The first time I heard Radiohead's Hail to the Thief, I felt it was a dreary, dull bore.

The second time I listened to it, I thought it was one of the best albums of the decade.

I did too actually. When Hail to the Thief came out it was one of my least favorite Radiohead albums but nowadays, it's probably my favorite.

Same here, except it was a year or two ago when I started to like him.

I'm not proud of this, but at one point I liked Coldplay. Now I hate them.

First time I heard The Velvet Underground, I didn't like them. Now they are one of my favourite bands. VU & Nico is my favourite album of all-time too, tied with DDN

Yeah, now I see it as a masterpiece!

Also, I didn't like SY when I first heard them, now they are my favourite band! I probably didn't like them because at first I heard My Friend Goo, haha.

Why do so many people hate on My Friend Goo? I mean, it's not stellar, but it doesn't suck...

It's not as bad as RR, still not good.

Yes, I much prefer The Eternal than those two albums. It's just a matter of taste. I thought SY became more and more boring since they put Sonic Nurse out. I am very glad that the new record is this good, yet I can't help feeling bored by them as a band, now. Probably it's just me.

I pretty much like all their records up until Sonic Nurse. The new album is good too.

I'll try explaining myself a little better: I think their current output as the offcial version of Sonic Youth, as good as it is, won't have an impact on other bands like all their records up until Sonic Nurse.

I heard Caroline by Status Quo on a far-too-loud PA a few Christmasses ago. They're a band that need to be brain-meltingly loud, as opposed to on the back of a sofa advert. Otherwise, they just sound a bit poo.

I've seen them playing on an old tv programme a few years ago, way before the 'in the army'-era stuff, possibly in the late 60's, and they were VERY good.
