My kids get pissed off with me playing the same track over and over......current hang up is "ghost of you" My Chemical Romance. Often, they share my taste, but they tend to get fed up before I do

My 13 year old is also living with ear buds in her ear. But what blew me away was what she was listening to - "Afternoon Delight"...and actually liking it. My God I liked that tune when I was 15 years old! She also likes Queen. But then she'll do an 180 degree turn and be listening to the Gorillas (surprisingly I like them too).

My 9 year old, on the other hand, likes Crazy Frog and the Notorious Cherry Bombs. But that's my husband's fault.

I don't want to harsh your groove, but the extended earbud wearing and especially the volume is a recipe for HEARING DAMAGE! Not kidding. It's sooo easy to but the volume a couple of notches, and it doesn't take much to make it too loud to be safe for extended periods of time. I don't have my facts and figures at hand, but you could look it up yourself. Deafness is a challenge, one that can be avoided.
