Turn that Music down!!

[RMAC757]

This should be called the grumpy old fart thread. There's some great new music out. I admittedly have a thing for the late eighties..early nineties music but still like a lot of the newer stuff....and I love rap. It bothers me that so many people refuse to open their minds to something new. There's a hell of a lot out there other than Justin Bieber.

In the 70s/80s/90s were you listening to music from twenty or thirty years earlier?

In the 70s and 80s I was listening to John Denver and Billy Joel but I was also listening to Nat King Cole, Frank Sinatra and Glenn Miller. Good music is good music -- it will be timeless if it has pleasing tonalities, melodies and harmonies and/or a catchy rhythm. How many people today still listen to George Strait from the 70s or 80s?

Dont get me wrong, the old stuff was great. But if that's all you listen to, then you are just living in the past and not keeping up with the rest of society.

I'm open to new stuff and some of it is good ... but not a lot. As far as keeping up with society, are we talking about the same society that thinks Barack Obama is the greatest thing since sliced bread, actually WANTS to be dependent on the federal or state government, doesn't bother actually reading the Constitution or new laws, and goes around thinking Trayvon Martin was some little angel ruthlessly gunned down by a racist white guy? Mmmmm ... yeah, count me out of that crap, I'll just leap frog it to an era when society regains its senses.

I've got you beat, mate.

Heh. Was going to post that one first, but thought that the obvious Lady Gaga tie-in with Fatty Boom Boom was a better fit.

I've got you beat, mate.

At 32 I can still listen to the new stuff although I find my radio tuned to Sports Talk most often these days.

I have Sirius in both of the cars and subscribe to their Internet streaming service. I find that most all of the am/fm radio stations nowadays suck pretty badly. They'll play 3 or 4 songs and just seem to keep them on repeat so after a few hours of listening to the same station you're burned out on the songs because you've heard them several times in just a few hours.

Opie and Anthony is my preferred daily auditory entertainment at work.
