And you look at them in stunned silence, like they've been to Mars for a year. "Where the hell have you been XXXXX is the best thing since sliced bread - what do you do live under a rock?" "What do you mean you can't identify Simon Lebon in a line up blindfolded?" The on the radio / TV etc - it seems the latest trendy thing is this new boy band One Direction. I say new because they are to me. I didn't even know they were from the UK let alone barely old enough to take themselves off to bed. And it made me realise that it finally happened. I got old and out of touch :( I am turning into my mother LOL |

It's when a 'new' song is released and it's a remake of a remake of a remake - and you remember the original, but it was a remake of the original that you danced to at school disco's.
Oh and calling a school disco a disco and not a dance:eek::rofl: |

Re: Growing Old.
A lot of crap music around now a days. Give me 77' Punk and early 80's Punk and Oi! over the shite that is around today.

Re: Growing Old.
I appear to have stopped listening to new music around the end of the 90's. Moving to Canada didn't help as cancon is invariably a bit shite. Nor did moving to Newfoundland although I can now stomach squiddly diddly without too much pain. But now I find myself contemplating the itunes store and a sea of meaningless names and wondering how to goabout finding something new to listen too?
So any suggestions? My tastes run from Indie through to rock, either prog or heavy(ish) via electronica. Little interest in pop/rap/country/r&b or something called bluegrass which appears to be outlandishly popular in this part of the world. (When they've had enough oirish squiddly diddly stuff). What are the kids, or more accurately, the discerning 40somethings listening to these days? This could be a new thread. Or a chance for ridicule. This is BE. It can go either way.;) |
