What year did you leave school....

... And what music do you remember listening to at the time?

In this case, school must be secondary (no college or 6th form).

Me: 1993

Music: Prodigy, The Orb (especially Orb Live 93), Shamen (ezzergoode was everywhere), REM and was big into The Beatles then and eurythmics.

2005. Opeth, Metallica, Lamb of God.

1987 (After 6th year). Thank you I now feel as old as I look.

Left high school in 1988, at that time was mainly listening to NWOBHM, Bay Area Thrash and Death.

'94

So much the same with the music (minus the beatles nonononononono!) To add Orbital's Brown Album and some other stuff. I'd just made the transition from metal to electronic. I believe the addition of a certain habit helped me into all the groovy hip and relaxed tunes.
Ah, Boss Drum was a good album.

Anyone remember Dee Lite? Groove is in the heart. That and the b52's.

1990, omg I feel so old now.

Draeger · 7 Dec 2012 at 20:04

1986 - straight into the Royal Signals.

I was listening to Metallica, Anthrax and Pink Floyd then - still am now.

Aod · 7 Dec 2012 at 20:07

2006, and I probably wasn't listening to any music, just like I'm not listening to any now

Didn't go to school much so not quite sure but the official year would have been: 1992 (secondary school)

As for music: Electronic/RAP/Love Ballads (Prodigy, Shamen, Technotronic, The KLF, Sir Mix a Lot, House of Pain, Kriss Cross, Michael Bolton, Firehouse, Bryan Adams) :eek:

2006, HIM was really the band for me that year. Still love their earlier albums.

kierenharrold · 7 Dec 2012 at 20:17

2006 - Metallica, Rammstein and Dio. Still listen to the same music now.

Ja5peruk · 7 Dec 2012 at 20:22

1988 - Pink Floyd, Inxs and Madness a would have been listening too

Skillmister · 7 Dec 2012 at 20:25

2007

Can't really remember. Probably Blink, Bloc party etc and not really any different to now.

You're such a paradox.

1979.

Can't really remember much about the music that far back...
