I thought of this topic while I was on the Spirit of Tasmania earlier today and it seemed like an interesting idea, so I decided to create a thread based on it. Do you think your parents taste in music has had a strong influence on the music you like or does your taste in music drastically differ from the type of music your parents like?
My parents had a massive influence on the type of music I have an interest in. If it wasn't for their interest in Grunge/alternative-rock, my taste in music would likely have been completely different.

My father is very into hip hop/rap of the 90s and to now. His also into R&B and disco, and pretty much some pop songs from the 80s and 90s. My mom however is into about the same thing, but she is not into rap that much compared to my dad. She's into R&B and gospel music, and considering she was in band, she's super into marching band music growing up. Besides that my parents are about the same in what they listen to and the stuff I grew up hearing in the car with them.
I say they kind of did, I'm into a lot of the older stuff there into and the genres, but they listen to it pretty much mostly 100% of the time, The other stuff I listen to is pretty much what I discovered myself, I'm like the few people in the family who listens to rock music XD I like to think that me and my dad can be like those father-son relationships where the father doesn't like his "rebellious" sons taste in music (usually rock music) saying that its nothing compared to "back in the day" and we both argue over our tastes in music 😂
So i guess it's both the same taste and a drastic one.

My parents liked people like Jim Reeves, Paul Robeson and similar since they were born before 1940. Also my father liked the ould Irish songs which he taught me. I knew them before I knew the chart stuff.

I'm not sure exactly what my parents like. My dad loves 80's and 90's music, and my mom just likes 90's music. My mom loves listening to P!nk's songs.
Unrelated, but one time my dad was playing songs from the Y2K era and I was honestly surprised by how little I liked the songs. I hardly liked any of the pop songs.

I know my mum really likes the 60s-80s for music and my dad likes the 80s. As far as I'm aware my mum doesn't really like the 90s although she likes a lot of stuff from the Y2K era through to the mid 2000s.

My Mum & Dad were born in 1964 and 1967, respectively. You often hear people stereotype late Baby Boomers/early Gen X'ers (people who are the same age as my parents) as only liking '80s music, since they were teenagers during the decade. However, I would say that plenty of people their age equally like '90s music, since pop culture was mostly targeted at Gen X during the '90s. My Dad views the '80s the same way I view the 2010s.
