What kind of music (if any) do your parents listen to?

My mum listens to just about everything: classical, pop, rock, arab, indian, dance. She wouldn't listen to any of this though: Mum music
My dad only listens to classical music.

When I was growing up my Dad would listen to Stranglers, Pink Floyd, Deep Purple and Led Zeppelin a lot and my mum would listen to Beautiful South, David Essex and Kirsty McColl.
These days my mum listens to a lot of chart music which winds me up and my dad likes ambient and soul, and he recently bought the new A-ha album and saw them live.
It all changed when they split up, y'see.

My old man was A Pink Floyd, Yes, Led Zeppelin fan with a bit of soul / funk in the form of Al Green, Sade and Stanly Clark.

Mother was The Osmonds, Adam And The Ants, Bay City Rollers and Madonna.

I got more from my old man but I do love Adam And The Ants and I think that The Osmonds are by far the best boy band EVER!!. I don't know if that says alot???

My dad listens: classical, jazz, arabian and indian stuff, Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, Björk, Jean-Michel Jarre, The Beatles, 60s, 70s, 80s and weird stuff.
And I dunno what my mom listens. She was a big fan of Finnish rock, Jon Bon Jovi and Pink Floyd. Now she listens radio. But I think same as my dad, except jazz and classical.
