JIM: \\u201cMy earliest recollections of listening to music, was listening to my Dad belting out the entire Beatles catalogue from the back seat of our yellow Volkswagen beetle- Hey, it was the seventies! My Dad had a decent collection of vinyl, the entire Beatles collection, a serious Elvis collector and a huge country western collection. It only ever seemed strange to other people, a Greek guy who liked country. I grew up around it, so I thought everybody\\u2019s Dad liked country. I still remember me and my sister trying to get him not to sing \\u201cmake the world go away\\u201d in the shower because we needed a quiet room to record, Duran Duran\\u2019s \\u201cThe Reflex\\u201d, from the radio.\\xa0
Having an older sister in the eighties, makes you an automatic fan of stuff like the Culture Club, Wham, Cindy Lauper, Madonna, and the Eurythmics. It was all great, and it was our top 40, our New Kids on the Block/N\\u2019Sync/Britney/Christina/Beyonce/Lady Gaga or whatever.\\xa0
Enter High School, enter cliques, and enter personality definition through music. I grew up on a steady diet of what was then alternative pop music, Depeche Mode, Pet Shop Boys, New Order, The Smiths, Erasure\\u2026 If it had an electronic feel, a steady kick and it made you happy one day and sad the next, that\\u2019s what I listen to. I didn\\u2019t paint my nails black and put on the Cure make up, but a steady diet of Joy Division, will make you think about it. Just kidding, my families\\u2019 Greek and they hit hard!\\u201d
