Romance Tip: Do not corner your girlfriend in the basement and croon "Lady" to her.
There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

I've never been ashamed of my Queen, Pink Floyd or Styx love.
MJ's Thriller is another story.

Domo arigato, Mr. Hecubotto....
When I was in high school, my brother liked to play his Styx albums full blast when I was trying to sleep. Kind of put me off them.
I went from liking pop/Top 40 music until I was around 16, and then my brother got me into 1950s/early '60s music, which I listened to almost exclusively for about four years until a college friend dragged me out to dance on New Wave night at the local nightclub. That's when I got hooked on mid-80s New Wave--Dead or Alive, Erasure, Communards, New Order, etc., as well as some of the college radio stuff like REM, OMD, INXS, and other all-caps groups.

In the music crit business we call that the Caps Lock Era.
Okay, we don't but now I will.
(I also refer to the early Beatles music as their Pronoun Era.)
I'm still ashamed I bought the Wilson Phillips album. I wasn't even in high school at the time.
I was never really ashamed of any of my high school favorites, which were mostly Pink Floyd and the Who and the Dead. It was the early 80s, but I guess I didn't know it?
I did have a brief flirtation with ... New Wave? Electronic stuff? I don't even know what to call it -- Romeo Void, Depeche Mode, Yaz, etc. It didn't last long, and I also discovered Joni Mitchell in high school, so.

Styx was the second rock concert I ever went to. (Warrant being the first.) (Man, Alaska sucked for seeing big acts.)

I own a lot of stuff now I'd have been DEAD before owning in high school.
