This 80's revival thing going on

Someone on 'telly recently very saliently pointing out the following opinion he had. That as it so traspires, in the end ie. now, 80's music actually sounds a lot better than we thought it did at the time.

It's funny I think that how, in the 80's, I loved 80's music, but in the 90's I though it was just so cheesy and crap and I was so happy that music in the 90's was better. But now, in this 21st century decade I think 80's music just sound so good, and 90's music now sounds really cheesey in retro....

For example:

Now:

I was too young to [SIZE=-1]remembe[/SIZE][SIZE=-1]r all of the 80's tunes. Which is p[/SIZE][SIZE=-1]robably why I'm pa[/SIZE][SIZE=-1]rtial to 90's music. My pa[/SIZE][SIZE=-1]rents neve[/SIZE][SIZE=-1]r listened to 80's music much at all since it was a busy time fo[/SIZE][SIZE=-1]r them, having kids and sta[/SIZE][SIZE=-1]rting a ca[/SIZE][SIZE=-1]ree[/SIZE][SIZE=-1]r and [/SIZE][SIZE=-1]all.

Well it's ok if you missed it then, it's kinda happening again.

I think the 80's is like the 60's of the 80's.

I think it's the same thing going on... only we didn't noticed because no-one in the 60's was going on about how good the 40's were, were they?

 

culture is aging into a place where the 80's are more acceptable, as in due course, in 10 years, 90's will be more acceptable

if you hadn't noticed 00's are sort of a slightly better 80's redux (instead of white leather everywhere, black leather everywhere, simplistic elegance, just, a better iteration of it, a better thought out, less coked out version of it)

 

Yeah, thank God. New music tends to have a bit of that 80's feel to it lately which is so much bette[SIZE=-1]r than that good 2-3 yea[/SIZE][SIZE=-1]rs of all new music being put out as EMO.

Emo is schmemo, I'm so glad we are out of the Brit pop things also, it gives bands more breathing space I think.

 

I love me some ska

skariffic.

 

I like skanking.

 

skanking pickle?

 

OK this thread is about electro music thank you please.

 

Mind you back in therm days there wurnt much difference I suppose sometimes.

A lot of punk as well, both of them.

we have steve miller and joe cocker coming to reno later this month.... I think the 23rd also.

 

I saw Steve Miller and Joe Cocker up at Woodstock about a month ago, It was raining and muddy yet awesome!

 

worth $100?

 

I payed $25 to stand out in the rain, I wouldn't pay $100 for any concert. It was good but not epic, CSNY 2006 tour was better.
