What song de-flowered you musically?

Favorite Answer

I think it was in elementary school, 5th grade, maybe later. I was on the bus sitting with my friend and he brought some kind of 80's compilation CD with him to listen to on his portable cd player. He said he had a song that I HAD to hear. It was a song called French Kiss. At first I didn't get what the big deal was, but then the good part kicked in, I'm pretty sure I borrowed that CD from him after that haha. Maybe that's why I'm a fan of electronic music today lol. It's a classic and innovative House tune nonetheless.

Haha that's funny. Honestly I would play Several Species of Small Furry Animals Gathered Together in a Cave and Grooving with a Pict-on endless loop. He'd cringe.. BQ: I don't really condone organized sports other than Gymnastics (because I was in it competitievly) I guess Rugby is cool though? BQ2: hmmm I know this is cheesy but Ursella from the Little Mermaid. BQ3-no I could never physically harm someone unless it was to save myself. That and I'm 5'5'' and a 0 in juniors..I couldn't do much damage....Show more

What was the first dirty song you heard that you understood?
Little Red Corvette
Prince

BQ: did you like it?
I still love it.

BQ2: if you received "dirty" money somehow, would you feel comfortable spending it?
The best thing would be to spend it right away,as to not be caught with it!...Show more

There is more than one possible answer to this...

'Machine Screw' and 'Black No.1' ~ Type O Negative
this was in 1995, when I was 13.

But, it could also have been earlier that year, when I heard :
'Whole Lotta Love' and 'Hertbreaker' ~ Led Zeppelin

And, yet, I think it predates back to when I was 12, listening to early Fleetwood Mac songs like :
'Rattlesnake Shake' ; 'Shake Your Moneymaker' ; 'Black Magic Woman'
I'd been listening to these since early childhood, but it was around the age of 12 when I first started to understand the 'real' meanings...


BQ : Yes to all of them :)

BQ2 : That rather depends on just how it got dirty......Show more

When I was a kid in school, the music teacher presented a "history of music" presentation that lasted a whole week. Part of the presentation was censorship in music. None of us really cared. Anyway, she played Big Balls by AC/DC and explained that the band got the song past the censorship people by saying the song was about ballroom dancing.

Of course, as kids we didn't care what she told us. All I remember is everyone giggling. That was my first impression of how cool rock music was. My second impression was Led Zeppelin black light posters in my friends older brother's room.

Botany? I wouldn't have guessed....Show more
