Erm, I don't think there are any songs that I listened to only. My parents raised me with the 80's rock/glam classics. My father showed me Iron Maiden and Metallica when I was 4, so yeah... you have an idea as to what I listened to

I also absolutely loved the 'Transformers: The Movie' soundtrack (from the '84 animated movie, obviously). Brilliant 80's metal. Look it up.

The same as I listen to today, almost everything

Hard to even come up with a good answer here

Actually no idea. I don't even know if I was such a music fan below 10 years... But later I was huuuuge backstreet boys fan... ehem

That's so... y'know

I can't remember liking any music other then metal. I know my mom says I got into Kiss and Scorpions in the 2nd grade so that would've made me about 7 yrs old.

...and my child hood was a few decades ago

In my later childhood I listened mainly to these bands:

Uriah Heep
Jethro Tull
Led Zeppelin
Deep Purple
Black Sabbath
UFO
Scorpions
Golden Earing
...
and finaly some german singing bands like Renft and Berluc.

Tyrant Heart

...must have been the same as my dad; The Doors, Uriah Heep, Deep Purple... etc.
He ain't the Metal-guy

Baah, where did you guys get such parents? No wonder I had such a bad music taste with a mum who loved the Beachboys and such stuff...

Lol, you can turn around and show your family better music.

I got my mom to like (or at least think it's OK. ) Nightwish (and a bit of Opeth!)

My dad loves most power metal now. First showed him Alestorm, and then he was driving my car a short distance and he LOVED At The End Of The Rainbow by HammerFall, of course.
