Brand New Key

My dad got mad when I sang it to him "with gestures", and poked him in the belly with my index finger. I thought he'd think it was cute? I was 14.

And "Bohemian Rhapsody" because it says something about Beelzebub...

That kinda got me laughing ... aint nobody knows what the sung is about but yes it does mention beelzebub.

I couldnt listen to The Mary Jane Girls "All night long" cus it was naaaarsty, I got the CD as soon as I left JWs.

Ugh, my mom HATED music. Partly because of the JW's brainwashing, and partly because my dad was a music fanatic. Too much of a good thing can be bad. I LOVE music, but even I don't want to hear the blaring lyrics of rock blasting from my speakers in the early hours of the morn. Everything was censored for me, even certain radio stations, where the lyrics were edited, was banned. Prince, MJ, anything popular, loved by the 'world' had to be a bad thing. My mom would let me listen to a boring radio station for an hour, but only if I listened to Kingdom Melodies tape for an hour. I usually just opted not to listen to music at all, I heard enough of that other crap when I was at the KH, three times a week. As if being forced to sing 6 Kingdom songs a week wasn't enough. She did, however, buy me an old Mickey Mouse record player and let me listen to Disney Soundtracks. How gracious of her.

Any "Alternative" music, which at that time had a huge spectrum that included White Zombie to Social Distortion to Tool to the Smashing Pumpkins to the Red Hot Chilli Peppers.

I snuck it in anyways. ;)

When I was 18, I started getting into goth music, and the name itself was a no-no, even though before my mom found out the name of the genre, she was dancing to Switchblade Symphony, the Bauhaus and the Sisters of Mercy.
