It was only later on that I became more interested in older music.
The bottom line is, I tend to be going back to older and older music.
I guess my music taste is pretty predictable: I like new indie rock stuff, older stuff.
I guess I'm a real fan of older music, and that's what shaped my taste and the way I sing.
I'm a man of different types of flavors and tastes. I like listening to things that inspire me. Older music, when instruments were being played, not just people hitting buttons. It's manlier. You're touching things to make sounds appear.
I think it's healthy for bands to discover new, older stuff.
I like a lot of electronica. I like older jazz rather than newer.
Sometimes you're inspired by an old-school song that you want to chop up and make a sample out of it. I find that with a lot of older Motown music.
I listen to older music like AC/DC.
I got to know Elton John's older music by learning to like his newer stuff. 'The Lion King?' That's what I like.
I think I skipped a lot of music, like when I was 17 or 18. I didn't know about a lot of new bands because I was so immersed in older music.
