One guy has started to listen to a bit of Japanese music because of this, but I think I've only succeeded in making him into a minor GO!GO!7188 fan.

Other than that, I can say I've turned my elementary school aged kids into Ringo aficionados. They'll request some of her videos on my iPod every now and then. Also, when a song from HF comes on, they instantly know what DVD video it is and they'll say things like "Hey, this is the hamster song!" or "Hey, this is the street animal song!".
That sounds like a success story, but I still can't believe how someone can hear a ringo song (not from variety) and not become a fan. I'm amazed that your Beatles fans haven't been able to see the light.
