This is more about an album but I think this still fits. I never really listened to music growing up. My mom was really into the Beatles, but my parents didn't really listen to music all that often. With the exception of a short period in elementary school where I purchased, I kid you not, Who Let the Dogs Out, Aaron's Party (Come Get It), and a Now That's What I Call Music! 4, I never bought any music. When I was about 15 one of my cousins was listening to American Idiot and it just clicked. It got a lot of hate, and while I don't like anything I've heard by Green Day after American Idiot, and a few of the songs have been somewhat ruined for me by being overplayed, but I still really like this album.
