spidermike007 Posted August 16, 2023 Share Posted August 16, 2023 (edited) Any hard rock. Alot of country music. Anything by Justin Bieber, Cardi B, Kanye West, the Weekend, Sheeran, Limp Bizkit, Aaron Lewis, Jason Aldean, Dababy, Billy Ray Cyrus, Taylor Swift, Adele, Katy Perry, Tim McGraw, Ariana Grande, Post Malone, Britney Spears, Whitney Houston, Madonna, Drake, Billy Joel, etc. The bar for pop music is set very, very low right now. It is not a good time for music. Very few brilliant artists are emerging. Not exactly a golden age for music, and anyone who thinks differently, likely did not live through the mid 1960's to early 1970's (classic rock), the late 70's to late 80's (mostly British music, and old school hiphop), or the mid 90's to early 2000's (electronica).

huangnon Posted August 16, 2023 Share Posted August 16, 2023 Nu Metal. Was just reminded of this recently when my son figured out the guitar tabs to some dirge by "System of a Down". All moody, introspective lyrics and swirling brooding verses, then charge into the batsh!t "angry" chorus. Formulaic cr@p for adolescent white males. Will try to ween him off this awful music, and into something a bit more wholesome like Black Sabbath, maybe. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NativeBob Posted August 16, 2023 Share Posted August 16, 2023 some 10+ years ago. Bangkok, Silom, Bangkok Bank.

I agree with that list except a couple of Madonna songs. 80s was bad in UK, apart from Smiths and Jesus and Mary chain, maybe The Cure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KhunLA Posted August 16, 2023 Share Posted August 16, 2023 Can't remember last time I had a radio on, at least 23 years. Never at home, and when in the car, that's my quiet time, or I'm playing music I select. Never force fed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely the Cure. And Tears for Fears. Duran Duran, Pet Shop Boys, Joy Division, New Order, Bowie, Spandau Ballet, Depeche Mode. I could go on. I think it was a great decade for the UK. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LaosLover Posted August 17, 2023 Share Posted August 17, 2023 The big joke around the time was that they were invited to play Disneyland. The Disney people thought they were portraying super-hero's. What kind of super-hero was the leatherman supposed to be? The Indian was my neighbor -obviously free to walk among us unmolested by fans if he wasn't wearing his head dress.
