As far back as I can remember having a defined musical taste, around 9 or 10 years old:

Backstreet Boys

N'Sync (hey, I liked boy bands, but I maintain today they're still great lol)

ABBA

Nellie Furtado

Hillary Duff

--Wow, I had a really gay taste in music as a kid.

Now:

Billy Joel (I maintain that he's among the top 5 best musicians ever)

Jimmy Buffett

The Beatles

Journey

Avril Lavigne* (Her first album at least is surprisingly good)

I worry that I'm too much of a Billy Joel sycophant and ignore a lot of other masterful music, but until someone with a better singing voice, better songwriting skills, and better command of more than one instrument all in a single package comes along, I have no choice but to literally sing his praises.

Nirvana
The Libertines
The Streets

I'm still pretty young, but I'll go back to my childhood.

My childhood:
-Backstreet Boys/N'SYNC (I loved both haha)
-ABBA
-Radio Disney stuff
-Jesse McCartney
-Michelle Branch

Now:
-Never Shout Never
-Sleeping With Sirens
-The Doors

I like a lot of music, so it's hard to choose haha

 

Then (end of middle school, early high school - around 13/14):
-The Beatles
-Keane
-The Fray
-The Eagles
-Green Day

Now:
-The Beatles
-The Eagles
-Billy Joel

That fifth spot on the "Now" list could've gone to several artists - it's like a three- or four-way tie.
