When I was a teenager I obsessively followed the music charts, getting up early on Saturday morning to watch Rage and Video Hits. This was before we could just watch everything online. If you wanted to see a band’s new video you had to sit through the whole show and hope it was played (it was the 90’s).

These days I don’t really care about what is popular in Australia and don’t listen to mainstream radio so I don’t know what stuff is really popular or top 10. I have a few favourite bands but that’s it. My husband knows a lot more than me and can name bands and singers that I have no clue about.

If I listen to any radio I’ll listen to SBS PopAsia online and catch the TV show sometimes (it’s awesome). My husband just doesn’t get into it much. If I talk about new Korean groups he won’t know who they are and doesn’t care.

It’s funny how music tastes can change over time.
