I can’t be the only one who can’t parse this sentence.

I’m sorry, can you rephrase this? I don’t understand what you’re trying to say.

Can you please edit the post and clarify what you mean by "turn on"? I'm not smart enough. Thank you.

My first album was They Might Be Giants - Flood.

What can I say, I still have great taste.

Also nice to know my first band has had good politics since their first show was at a Sandanista rally.

I gotta admit though, I first heard them on Tiny Toon Adventures.

Linkin Park’s Hybrid Theory

Queen. One of their best of albums. And Michael Jackson. Dangerous and History album (which had a best of disc too).

I assume you're asking what was the first non kids music I listened to and picked out myself? Instead of listening to the Lion King sound track, my first CD was Boston's greatest hits.

In the mid 1970s, we could borrow cassettes from the library. I started with Neil Diamond “His 12 Greatest Hits”, then moved on to Electric Light Orchestra, Roxy Music, and Mike Oldfield.

AC/DC - You Shook Me All Night Long

Kiss - God of Thunder (Destroyer was the first album I owned)

The first CD I ever owned was O zone - Dragon Sta Din Tei aka the Numa Numa song. No idea why or where I got it from but I would listen to that on my little cd player

My first album was the self titled Gorillaz. If you put it in a computer there was a game!

I'd been listening to my older brother's music for a while before that though - Green Day Dookie, Blink-182 Enema of the State, Weezer Blue Album, Korn Issues were all in the mix.

It might have been Whole Lotta Love by Led Zeppelin

My parents were young so I never had kid music. I listened to their stuff. The earliest I can recall I had 45s and albums in my room: Three Dog Night, Eagles- Hotel California, Paul Simon - 50 ways to leave your lover on 45, the soundtrack to Saturday Night Fever. I had several Beach Boys albums, and The Bay City Rollers album whichever one had Saturday Night on it. Oh, and KISS Double Platinum.

One of the first albums I purchased was Back in Black by AC/DC. I also purchased a compilation album called Certified Gold. About half the songs on that were good, I remember liking a Pat Benatar song.

Before that I remember having a little portable boombox with cassette recorder and I recorded Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap also by AC/DC and Destroyer by The Kinks. I listened to them over and over.

Rush - Tom Sawyer

Eminem curtain call. My grandma brought it for me having no idea what it was. I was listening to it for a few days before my mum was like wtf is that and then listened to the first song on the album which was fack. I was 9 or 10 and she confiscated it and I had to steal it back and rip it to the computer and create copies incase she got those.

The Macarena. I still have a cassette tape that is front to back The Macarena on repeat.

I’m not sure of the first song, but the first music I ever bought myself was II by Boyz II Men.

The first few I remember were Third Eye Blind-semi charmed kind of life and Smashmouth - All-star (before it was in Shrek)

Found my parents "Business as usual" - Men at work vinyl.

Memorized "Down Under" listening with Sony DR-S5s. I always thought that's how you were supposed to listen since the cord matched the one on the album cover.

I loved playing with my bigger sister's cheap hi-fi, I would put on a vinyl record and without power turned the record manually save heard whispering ^(🎵cherry cherry lady...🎶), so there's Modern Talking, then when she bought a CD player it was Crush by Jennifer Page

Brooks and Dunn - Boot Scootin' Boogy Travis Tritt - Achey Breaky Heart

Lots of country songs.

The sound track to Bill and Ted’s Bogus Journey and then all the artists on there- kiss, slaughter, winger, faith no more, megadeath, etc.

I found a burned CD in my older brothers rooms. On it was Symphony X's album "Twilight in Olympus" and I loved it

System of a Downs 'Toxicity'
