My Daughter’s Music vs. Mine when I was her age.

Sunday morning, the sun is shining, I’m drinking my coffee and listening to E (5) rock out in her room to a new CD we made last night for her.  I love listening to her sing and watching her dance in her room, it brings back so many memories from my childhood.  I was always in my room with music playing.

Let’s compare the differences in music now vs. then…

First Up A little Rap

E: Dr. Dre Featuring Eminem and Skyler Grey, I need a Doctor

Me: Beastie Boys, No Sleep Till Brooklyn

Now Teenie Bopper Music

E: Miranda Crosgrove, About You Now

Me: Debbie Gibson, Electric Youth

E: Lady Gaga, Born this Way

Me: Madonna, Papa Don’t Preach

E: K$sha, Blow

Me: B-52′s, Love Shack

So yeah, I think it is safe to say times have changed just a bit!  Back then it was so innocent for the most part, people were somewhat clothed, it was fun.  Now everyone is half naked, you can’t watch a video without wanting to bang who ever is sitting next to you because every video is about sex.  I just aged myself right there and for some reason I am ok with that.  But hey, I still dig the music today for the most part.  E even asked me to make her Jack Johnson CD last night too, I know there is hope!
