Rock was near its end. Local youth radio was pushing mostly grunge. Rap was starting to gain numbers. Most electric rock bores me now. Rap has some future, but it will need to incorporate more acoustic instruments.

The grunge guys win the not-ridiculous appearance award: plain sweaters and shirts, no sagging pants, no spandex pants hair bands.

I usually talk about the fifteen year span from 1977 to 1992 for pop culture overall, but if I have to pinpoint I will go with 1982-1987.

1984 was a particulary great year, both in pop music and heavy metal.

My first reaction to the 1984 article /chart was pew, yuck to most of it. But there probably was stuff I liked not mentioned, mostly not in mainstream or at least not mainstream pop / hot 100.


I am not sure I can identify a favorite year. I am looking at some alternative and mainstream rock charts. No answer yet. Somewhere between 1968 and 1994. To me the good or best is more here and there than super concentrated.

I'm 62 and just finished live streaming Ari Grande at Coachella... and she was the real deal... fantastic voice; great show.

Music... lots of good stuff way back when and now.

Good attitude!

My mocking post was in response to the deluge of threads at the time (some still now) where people would say other types of music sucks and X was the best (always being what they liked in high school)

I need to watch that concert, she has an amazing voice! My daughter is going to her concert, I kinda hope my wife doesn't end up going with her so I can.
