Define Grown Person? What Era are you talkin' ?

grown people have pot bellies, real jobs, and sometimes listen to smooth, "sophisticated" music with "mature" lyrics. you don't have to be a grown person to actually like their music.

without question the nightfly by donald fagan is the prototypical grown person album but the field is wide open. billie holliday is grown person music and so Paul Desmond and so is hall and oates so figure it out...

Oh, you mean "adult contemporary?" "Easy listening?" Or more to the point, "middle of the road?"
