As cliché as it sounds, I grew up listening to Elvis and the Beatles. These were the only records my parents owned and, I'm sure that has made a huge impact on what I consider good music today.

Madonna has amazing talent and a great outlook but fortunately for me I didn't get her taste in cone bras

Joe Strummer... He's shown me that music can express so much love, hate, social justice, unity and general dissatisfaction. He's not only changed my taste in music but also how I think about life

EVERYONE! It started with Ben Folds Five then quickly moved to The Foo Fighters, logically finding Nirvana from there. Got hooked on triple J, fell over some Green Day, worked backwards to the Clash and some early punk crossed the continent for the Ramones and so the story continues. Plus, Everyone else.
