No, this isn't going to be a mid-30 something ranting about 'the youth' but I literally mean kids enjoying music.
I'm 37 now and enjoyed music pretty much my entire life, I ended up getting into heavy metal and rock from an early age and couldn't be without it now. It's just been one of those go to things for me. I also have a 5 year old daughter who like many kids loves movies, cartoons and games. I have to pick her up from her mums which is 130 miles away so I have an iPad loaded with movies to keep her entertained if she gets bored on the journey.
What I started noticing was that she was fast forwarding movies to the end credits so she could listen to just the music so I loaded it up with all sorts of stuff, AC/DC, some 80s stuff, ska punk, Disney music etc.
Well for her birthday she asked me for an iPod!!! Well, "one of those little things you put music on" were her words.
I was stupidly pleased as with so much media available at your finger tips be it games, movies and internet she's shown a real interest in songs. Which I think is far healthier and I hope she get out of music what I did growing up.
That is all haha
