When did you first get "hit" by music? (reddthat.com)

Do you remember the first time you really clicked with music? I remember being on a family vacation at 9 or 10, getting some sort of random Beatles "Hits" cassette tape at whatever gas station, and playing it nonstop in my off-brand Walkman. That was the first time I really felt music in my bones, and to this day few things are as exciting as finding a new song to love.

It was 2002,I was 17. We were doing a end of the year show at school of Media and Communications, and we needed some cool intro music. So this classmate brought a CD, "Burn The Sun" by Ark, a prog-metal band.

Before this I believed I didn't have any interest in music. I hated the repetetive pop music playing on the radio, and had no interest in the kinda music my hometown friends listened to. Nobody listened to metal there. But after this I started looking for more music like this. Wasn't in the record stores, but I found a lot online. No wonder the record shops went out of business.
