ISearch Background/Intro

       Most people can remember the songs they listened to when they were very young, the nursery rhyme type songs from TV shows and stuff. Well I can't, I can remeber listening to N*SYNC, The Backstreet Boys, Britney Spears, and Christinia Aguilera. My sister and I would blast their music in her room and learn all the words and dance moves. Even at the young age of 7 or 8 I was already passionate about music. From then N*SYNC and he Backstreet Boys broke up, they were my two favorites, until Fall Out Boy released Sugar, We're Going Down and Dance Dance I really can not remeber what I listened to. I can clearly remeber the day that I first heard Sugar, We're Going Down though, because it was the same day I heard Dirty Little Secret by All American Rejects. I was sitting in the front seat of my Mom's car as she drove me to school, she had just turned onto the road that my school was on, Dirty Little Secret had just been playing for the first time, and Sugar, We're Going Down came on. At first I thought they were by the same band, oh naive little me. I learned a few days later that Dirty Little Secret, the song I was completely in love with, far more than Sugar at the time, was by All American Rejects. So that weekend on or grocery shopping trip to walmart, my sister and I went back to the electronics section to try and find their cd. As we prowled the shelves looking for the disc my sister found the All American Rejects slot, it was empty. I was heart broken at first, until she found the cd with Sugar We're Going Down, he exact words were, "Hey Nicki, this is the band that sings that other song you like so much." My mom rearely let me buy cds at that time so instead of waiting, something I was not good at even then, I bought the Fall Out Boy cd. The second I got home I popped it into my stereo and sat on by bed, reading a magazine and listening. That was all it took, I was hooked, I fell in love with them, and in turn, with pop punk and rock music. Over the last few years my tastes in music have elvolved a bit. I not listen to a bit of everything, from country to screamo. Fall Out Boy is still my favorite bad however, and I doubt that will ever change.
