Who's suggesting. Dusty Springfield was an FBI invention set up for profiling. There isn't a straight man in history that is a fan.

I'm 26 and I like everything about from garage and country I think. Not too keen on opera either. Main stuff is:

Indie / modern rock / Britpop (e.g. Manics, Stereophonics, OCS)
Punk and ska (e.g. Offspring, Reel Big Fish etc, Less Than Jake.)
Metal (e.g. Rage Against The Machine, Dope)
Dance (Softy spot for cheesey '90s dance and happy hardcore)
Blues rock (Gary Moore, Aynsley Lister)

Always have XFM on at work, so bombarded with the usual indie/rock stuff. Also like the occasional spot of jazz or classical stuff.

15 - Started off into metal, grew up listening to Iron Maiden, Ozzy Osbourne, Sabbath... Mum went to GNR when she was 6 months pregnant with me, Ozzfest when i was 9...

Once i hit College started listening to hip-hop/rap... Not very commercial stuff more along the lines of American mixtape artists and the Grime Scene - Bashy, Wiley, Dizzee Rascal.

Still go to metal concerts was at Testament, Megadeth and Judas Priest... Was quality by any standards.
