The most significant change to my music taste since graduating high school is the addition of Jim Steinman's music. Voted yes.

I didn't get into punk until I was in my early twenties, but otherwise, yeah, pretty much.  I still listen to most of the same several hundred classic rock songs I have since I was 14-17 (the only classic rock I can recall adding to the regular rotation as an adult is PF's Animals), some of the metal I listened to 16-20 and the same 4 hip hop albums I have since I was 17-19.  I'm probably the only white person in the country that is only into pre-Baby Got Back Sir-Mix-A-Lot, but I'm one of millions into early Cypress Hill.

but I listen to a lot of punk, so I answered no.

I don't even think my music taste stayed fixed throughout high school... The answer is definitely not, although to be clear I still like the vast majority of what I liked back then; I have simply expanded my horizons.

Most people wouldn't be proud to have not changed since high school.

Most of my music tastes I acquired freshman/sophomore year of college. The only artists that I really regularly listened to now and in high school are Taylor Swift and The Beatles

That was a long time ago.  I still like some of the same things (my default Pandora station is '70s Rock) but there's been a lot of stuff since then that I also like.

Not exactly, but similar enough.

I always liked classic rock, though in getting older I've started getting sick of the same songs on the radio all the time and become more interested in more experimental, obscure stuff that I wouldn't have taken an interest in without my previous tastes.

Mostly? I guess I would say the bands I listen to now are the spiritual successors to what I listened to in high school, but I do at least try to keep up with the times and explore new genres.

Yes it's literally exactly the same songs from the late 90s and 00s just replayed over and over again.

There's similarities, but it's definitely matured in some areas.

That's a great question.

The answer is yes.

This is pretty much my answer as well. I still like almost everything I did then, but there's so much more I like now in addition to what I liked then (in both temporal directions). What I dislike in music has remained quite consistent though.

I had no taste back then, as in, I literally didn't listen to music I didn't have to. I described myself as "musically atheist".

So no.

I've expanded my tastes from 50s doo wop and current pop to country and Southern Gospel.

I also appreciate the great hymns now and play them when I am alone.

Not really. There's always new things to learn.

I considered myself to have a relatively vast taste in high school which has grown since.

I got into the rough outlines of what music I still enjoy now when I was about five, probably earlier.

No. I've tried to be genre blind. But I liked a lot more contemporary rock then and not anymore. Now I listen to less music in general but more often something very mellow, more like background music.

The exact same? No…but I also liked metal and classic rock back then and still due. Never liked the shiny, cutter emo stuff that everyone liked back then. That was trash music.

There are broad commonalities, but no.
