I have always been an indie/rock sort o person but recently

[MavisEnderby]

have found mysel listening to more MOR/R and B type stuff and am currently thinking of purchasing Alicia Keyes album,I think she has a lovely voice....am I getting old and sad???

Never mind eh?

I am nuturing my inner Indie Chick with the new Teenage Fannclub album.

No, as you get older you can listen to whatever you want without having to feel uncool about things.

And besides as you get older you respond more to emotional songs I think and so prefer that - indie white boy rock can be a bit underwhelming in this respect I think.

In my defence I have recewntly discovered purchased the best of the Clash,and discovered the wonderful "Grace" album by Jeff Buckley which is now one of my all time avourite albums.I didn't realise Teenage fanclub were still going!Have also recently rediscovered The Smiths after hearing Morrisey on DID on R4

I like Lady Gaga.

I have no idea what has happened to me

Yes Grace is one of my favourites as well - have you tried '59 Sound by Gaslight Anthem - very good if you like americana/springsteen?

Oh I have a penchant for the Gaga too.

Catchy pop stuff.

She is the Madonna for the 2010 teen generation

I blame Glee

Old & Sad cos you like Alicia Keys???

lolololo

Have you heard Empire state of mind ?

If she's good enough for Jay Z ... she ain't sad....

I love her....

I have also developed a liking for (whispers)Take That.I never liked em first time around...what is happening

Sssshhh - don't tell anyone Mavis, but me too. I was too old for Take That when they were first around and most definitely an indie girl, but I've really liked their recent stuff.

It does happen. I was so "indie" at college and in my 20s, but these days I like the kind of stuff they feature on Popjustice.

I was a compete indie kid when younger. I wouldn't listen to the radio b'cos I thought I was above most of the music played on it. (Yes, complete indie/rocker snob).

Nowadays I love Lady Gaga. I think she is fantastic! And could probably name nearly all of the songs that they play on radio 1 daily.

I don't care though, think I was much too concerned with what people thought of me when younger!

BikeRunSki, what's the Teenage Fanclub album like? My dad went fucking mental when I spraypainted their logo on my bedroom wall, nestled between Senseless Things and My Bloody Valentine.

i think indie kids usually change their tastes a little with age - i loved blur/ash/oasis/stone roses etc and still do, but i'm much more of a folky type now. completely independently i've noticed lots of my favourite indie acts going folky too; graham coxon, bernard butler, cerys matthews, bell & sebastian... so maybe theres a natural progression with my transformation...

Take That do bloody brilliant songs.

Mind you, I like jack Johnson and have even been known to croon along to Michael Bubble. Does this mean I am officially DEAD?

Oh gosh, I agree. I like a wide variety of stuff - recommend Alan Pownall, v good in a mellow MOR kind of way. Love being old enough now that I am default uncool so it makes no difference what I do. Freedom!

My friend and I sat drinking tea watching Tinie Tempah and Plan B at the Roundhouse the other day. That was very cool in my head. Perhaps no-one else's.
