Music from my early childhood, my parent's music, has become more appealing to me.

Oh yeah. My folks alternated between Easy Listening and C&W when I was a kid. I can't say I ever hated it, but it certainly was not my music. In my late teens, I started to delve into other music with my friends. This opening up to non R&R or Pop, enabled me to realize what was really going on. I did like this stuff, but it just wasn't cool to admit it back then. Now I was impressing my friends, and their parents, with my knowledge of older songs that I had soaked in like a sponge all those years.

I still love the Easy Listening, and old country. (not so much the newer stuff)
