It is Saturday so it's time to share something about us. @bluemoon initiated a great challenge, Something About Me, #sam-saturday.
This week I will tell you something about my favorite music: rock.

Since I was a little kids, I was surrounded by the lovely electric guitar sounds. Rock ballads (my mom's number one of all times, and some of my top 3 rock bands, being Queen) or heavy metal fast rhythms, they all somehow educated my musical taste.
During my teenage years, I discovered the psychedelic part of the '70s. I started listening to The Doors and soon enough I became one of the biggest Jim's fans (I believe all teenagers find themselves in his lyrics, at some point). Janis Joplin, Jimmi Hendrix, the entire Woodstock gang made me regret I was not born earlier. 🙂
During the same period of my life I was listening to Black Sabbath, Metallica and all the other rock gods. But I always came back to The Doors.

After graduating the highschool, I went to university and my first two years consist of a mixture of rock genres: alternative, death, heavy metal and many other. This is the period when I met my future husband who was (and still is) the lead vocalist and guitar player of an alternative rock band. A perfect example on how music can shape your future. I could have been one of those boy bands groupies and sit in the library during the exams. But I was blessed (or cursed...depends on how you see it) with a very good memory and studying was not necessarily a must for me.
Long story short, I married the lead singer of a rock band! We have two wonderful toddlers and I'm still waiting for the day when he will make a huge amount of money so I could divorce and take half of his wealth. 😂
Leaving the joke aside, due to my husband, I started to pay more attention to Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Soundgarden or Alice in Chains. What can be more wonderful than Temple of the Dog musical project? Having Eddie Vedder and Chris Cornell singing together is more than a rock chick can dream of.
I could write numerous pages about my favorite music and different stages of my life but I prefer to share with you one of the most wonderful songs ever written. The Who and Roger Daltrey... God, I love this man's voice. Love reign o'er me.
The person who says he/she does not like this song, becomes my nemesis. 🙂
