Turning Points

[katstevens.livejournal.com]

Everyone's music taste changes and evolves over time. Do you have an album or song that was a 'turning point' for you, musically? Perhaps you've had two or three turning points, or found that the combined power of a handful of songs made you think differently about a whole genre?

Are musical turning points always in the form of "OMG!" revelations? Were yours gradual or sudden?

I learned to love Europop when I was an exchange student, because that was the only music I ever heard. I remember going from loathing 'Barbie Girl' by Aqua to rushing to the dancefloor whenever it came on, though I think my real conversion point was the mighty 'Un dos tres Maria' by Ricky Martin.
