Both of my sons got the full music education growing up, and they totally get the music I grew up on.
As an example, the oldest was in a kid's trivia contest at a local mall when he was about 12. During the section on music, he was killing it.
At one point there was a tiebreaker question, and the emcee said he was gonna play the opening of a song and for the contestants to hit the button when they knew what it was.
The guy played the opening bars of "Locomotion." He hit that button within about 3 seconds and told the guy what it was.
His mom and dad were so proud.
And then the guy said he would give him some extra points if he could name the artist. He yelled out, "Little Eva" immediately.
I told you all that to tell you this.
The night he got married, he had "Sexual Healing" and "Let's Get it On" playing on an endless loop in the hotel room when he and his wife went in.
