The 5 Bands & Musical Artists I listened to most in High School/College

* Thomas Dolby
* Peter Gabriel
* They Might Be Giants
* Tears for Fears
* Oingo Boingo

REM and Queen are pretty close behind, but those are definitely the big ones for those years. I didn't have a lot of money for albums and I didn't steal a lot of music, so that's why the different time periods can be lumped together

Gosh that's an interesting thing to think about. For me, a list off the top of my head (because I could never narrow that timeframe to just 5 groups) is:

• Radiohead
• BT
• Third Eye Blind
• Pink Floyd
• 2Pac

But music was so important to me. I ran a music server from 1999-2003 or so and listened to everything I could get my hands on.

@mawr I haven't listened to a lot of those, I confess!
