yah i notice jud bati ug taste generation karon ky sa before hehehe.

Pero i think dili man pod nato ma blame. when NSYNC released No Strings Attached, boyband was still new. I mean even me listened for a while. I grew up on 70s Vinyl and tapes(from my parents) and 99.5Rt when they were rock where u are bombarded with Pearl Jam and Alice In chains all the time. Then when Boyzone and Boyz II Men came along it was sort of fresh air to me. Until i discovered modern country in 1998 and once again rediscovering those old traditional country classics and country-rock of the 70s...


I have No Strings Attached on cassette. By that time i am already a country fan. I bought the album ky sayawon man namo ang It's Gonna Be Me hehehe

Mas maau kay ang White Album ang gipaminaw dili ang first 4

[depechebox]

yep yep yep cheesy bitaw ang early days sa the beatles..

john lennon also admitted that para gyud to sa fans ang ila early records..

accdg. to george harrison the real experimentation sa the beatles started out sa Rubber Soul.. esp. with the use of sitar... the track norweigian wood.. the record rubber soul and revolver was not really intended for the fans.. it was a real beatle record...


okay pud ang Rubber Soul og Revolver..

but if i have to choose just 3 beatle record.. it would be

St. Peppers
The White Album
Abbey Road
