Probably because they were saying WELCOME TO THE JUNGLE to future high school students. The Juniors seemed to have liked Bobby Brown for their favorite male artist. Country singers were also popular, such as Randy Travis and Hank Williams Jr. The Sophomores battled over their favorite female singer. Lita Ford, Whitney Houston, and Tiffany were at a stand off.

But as we all know, music will remain FOREVER YOUNG and will never die. SODON’T WORRY, BE HAPPY because music will be here FOREVER AND EVER, AMEN! VIDEOS 1.

Could it be, maybe, possibly, a case of BAD MEDICINE? Many parents think so, bul as some teens may Say, 1LSM ¥ PREROGATIVE because PARENTS JUST DON’T UNDER- STAND. Some adults wonder what happened to that SWEET CHILD O’ MINE when hearing their teenagers listen to heavy metal, rock, and even country music. All have been criticized as being no better than the WILD, WILD WEST. But WHEN THE CHILDREN CRY, parents, as well as society, must have FAITH and believe that the “new generation” will not turn out BAD. Teens know that modern music is not just a FOOLISH BEAT.
