| Crap. I totally owned about 3-4 Weird Al albums. I think my top 5 is highly inaccurate. |

First album I ever bought (I got it only for "Blue" by Eiffel 65)
![[image] [image]](http://www.hansonmerchandise.net/cds/compilations/variousartists/usnow4.jpg)
Then my obsession w/ EDM began at age 10 with this purchase:
![[image] [image]](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/a/ae/Daft_Punk_-_Discovery.jpg/220px-Daft_Punk_-_Discovery.jpg)
Then I heard "Bullet with Butterfly Wings" on The End and instantly begged my parents for money so that I could go by this album:

I then became obsessed w/ "alternative" rock for a couple years and that shows with my next 2 purchases:

| How does one even hear Daft Punk at 10? I'm so amazed at all of you that were listening to punk rock, industrial, electro, and other genres when you were barely into your double digits. |

| I didn't hear Daft Punk until I was in University. |

| My best friend's older brother was a massive raver in the early 2000's. I heard "One More Time" and the rest was history. |

| I got into Audioslave and The Offspring because of another friend of mine's older brother as well. Thanks Derrick! |

All the music I listened to was a result of watching MTV (when they actually aired music) and listening to 98.5 KOME religiously. I recall staying up way past my bedtime at the age of 12 so that I could listen to Love Line with Dr. Drew and Ricky Rachtman. Oh those were the days. Mash reruns at midnight on the local FOX syndicate to boot!
Edit: Pearl Jam - Vs is the only album purchased not based on my love of an MTV music video. |

Crap does this make me feel old. I bought Homework within about a month of its release. I was 16 at the time. |

| Yeah I remember dancing my ass off to Around the World at the Warehouse when I was 18 |

This album remains one of my few perfect albums. I remember I "acquired" my copy when I was about 8 or 9, when I liberated it from my mom's boyfriend's car. When he found out I had taken it, the very next day he went and bought a copy just for me so I could listen to it anytime.

I remember when I was in grade one, an older girl at my daycare (I think she was in grade three) told me a story about how the whole class had randomly busted out in Ice, Ice Baby during their math lesson. I was so jealous. And totally thought she was super cool and badass. |

2.)Fush Yu Mang - Smashmouth
![[image] [image]](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/d/da/FushYuMang.jpg)
"Walking on the Sun" is still a great fucking jam.
3.) Chumbawamba - Tubthumper
![[image] [image]](http://toponehitwonders.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/Tubthumper-Chumbawamba.jpg)
4.)Then I got into Eminem, like I'm sure every other white boy around my age.
Eminem- Slim Shady LP
![[image] [image]](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/3/35/Eminem_-_The_Slim_Shady_LP_CD_cover.jpg)
I still have a soft spot for earlier Eminem records.
5.)Nirvana - Nevermind This is probably the most important record to me personally. It's when I started listening to music more than just causally. I was around 13 when I bought this. Strangely enough it was actually this record that got me into Neil Young in round about kind of way.

It's crazy that so many people had Tubthumper but were never compelled to find any other Chumba records.
I owned Tubthumper for like six months before I realized that the song 'Tubthumping' was a thing and that people were already over it. By that time, I was fucking obsessed with that record and I was all over it when they released their follow-up. |
