What music is everyone listening to?
I have no trouble admitting I’m a sucker for 60’s music. I grew up listening to 1050 chum and oldies 1150. Great stations playing the greatest music. I’m only in my 30’s but I find that 60’s music resonates with me. It doesn’t matter if it’s rock and roll, Motown, ballads or country, just the sound is great. The lyrics are also awesome. Some are fun, some serious and deep, but they all have something in common, they are easy to follow.
Todays music I find is too harsh on the ears. Not all of it, but a good majority. I’ve listened to many genres of recent music and it lacks the “toe tap ability” of yesteryear. I wonder if today’s lyrics and songs will last the test of time.
The song writing abilities and instrument playing abilities of all artists is incredible. It just seems to me that today’s artists can get away with pushing a few buttons on a synthesizer and turn out tunes without so much as any training on any instrument. It’s a shame.
I’m rambling now. A few years ago the wife got me SiriusXM and it’s always locked on 60s on 6. I love listening to phlash Phelps.
I can’t imagine what it must of been like to live in that era with all that great music.
