Can you name a song your dad listened to/listens to?

Why did you pick that song?

There are no rules around how you choose to pick a song! It could be something meaningful you as a kid or something he listens to now that annoys you!

I’ll go first.

Abadan by Genesis

When I was a kid my dad had a giant 200 disc CD player and he’d buy whole albums to out in it. There were always a lot of Genesis songs playing.

When he got a divorce, he lost most of that, but he always seemed to have Abacab album lying around. I asked him once and he told me why he thinks Abacab was one of the greatest songs ever written.

My kids call me old fashion because I listen to 90s - mid 2000s music exclusively.

My kids listen to newer music (I don’t know the bands) but I show them the impact of 90s and 2000s music had on the industry.
