ahh there we go with that "most teenager"^([sic]) crap again. Its been a while since I was a teeny, but I've met a lot of teens that are a lot more mature than adults I know that are in their 30's and 40's even. Come on with the generalizations already.. do you say thing^([sic]) like "what do you expect from mexicans" too??
When I was a teeny in the late 80s, I like^([sic]) 50s/60s music like that which you listed below as well as the Beatles. I simply found it fun and easier on the ears than Madonna and Paula Abdul.
