Fucking love that film.

Dunno. My musical tastes were largely parental hand me downs, from Rocky Horror Picture Show to Dylan.

Then I git GnR when I was 14 and it all went a bit funny

Never really been a film person but teenage years were spent listening to a somewhat eclectic range of music. Oasis, blur, my chemical romance, the libertines, GnR, less than Jake, Jimmy eat world, greenday...loads. Still a huge music fan. I can't remember the last time I had the TV on but always listening to music

I was a bit obsessed with Madonna. Her early days Holiday, Get Into the Groove and all that stuff. My first bf took me to see Desperately Seeking Susan at the cinema. I had some lacey gloves and everything

Then I discovered The Cult and went a bit dark

Teenage years was when i really started getting into Sci-Fi films, mainly Aliens, Predator 1 and 2 and Terminator 2.

For music as a teenager i was mainly into Metallica, Guns n Roses and Nirvana during early teens but by late teens i was into Dance mucis and the 90's clubbing scene.

Teenage films were Grease and The Blues Brothers, with a few horror classics thrown in like Halloween and Friday the 13th.

Music was MeatLoaf, Black Sabbath, Rainbow, with a bit of War of the Worlds for good measure

It's the bit about the motorbike I always remember...

"It's the safest thing thing you'll ever have between your legs."

"What?"

Grease 2 I could watch over and over but back when I was a teen I didn't really watch films

Bands, I've very much been a teeny bopper all my life so it was always boybands, bros, new kids, take that, boyzone and then 5ive, I went through an indie phase too lol

Showing my age a little but film obsessions included Quadrophenia, Zulu and The Great Rock & Roll Swindle.

Musically it was all about Two Tone/Mod (with a bit of New Wave/Punk thrown in). For a few years would only listen to Madness, The Beat, The Specials, The Jam, Secret Affair etc and pretty much anything else was rubbish. Ms G will tell you nothing's changed, but I like to think my tastes have broadened since, although I do still listen to all of the above, and go and see those that are still around!!
