Even if this is true, there's no mistaking the amazing music of th 50s that still has an impact on millions today.

Only the good stuff is memorable. There were just as many hacks back then as there are now. The farther into the past you get, the less of the crap music people remember.

Yes, this is true. It's true that there where just as many crap musicians back then as there are today. But that's where the similaritys end. There arn't as many great musicians these days. When you compare hits of today, to the hits 60 (more or less) years ago, there is no question.

There's still good music being made. It just drowns in the aforementioned crap (and is released very rarely). Give it 50 years, and the music of the '00s will have been condensed down to nothing but talent.

I sure hope so, right now it's not showing much promise.

Re: Which decade do you wish you where born into?
I would always be born in this decade.It is a time were people who are weird,and smart are accepeted.Where being a nerd is cool.Honsetly,if I was born into any other decade,I would probably have killed myself by now,no joke.
Also,it is a time where women and girls can amount to something.Yes,you could say there were other decades you could do this,but none some much a now.Finally,women are getting almlst the same amount of pay in the workplace,and are escalating to higher job opportunities.

Re: Which decade do you wish you where born into?
My favorite decade was the 1990's. I grew up in it for the majority of my childhood.
So I experienced my favorite decade already.
Went to theme parks always every week, the 1996 summer Olympic games in america, the reign of my home basketball team: Chicago Bulls, my crazy elementary school.... so many memories.

Re: Which decade do you wish you where born into?
I think I'm ok with the time I was born.
so, not much to change xD

Re: Which decade do you wish you where born into?
I was born in the 90's, and I love it. I don't think I could enjoy being born in any other generation. I don't really get any of the other ones.
Oh well.
1995 is the best year and I'm proud that it was the year I was born.

Well I could try and argue why 1995 is better but instead all I will say is:
It is awesome that you and your car are from the same year :) :) :)

Re: Which decade do you wish you where born into?
I like to live in a time we have now. In a way we do have a chance to enjoy all the previous decades. It is accepted and cool to wear clothes of any decade to suit ur personal style.
And we can enjoy ALL the music made on all these decades!!! I think that really is something.
I wouldnt have mind to have born ten years earlier than i did, just to experience 80's as teenager/adult rather than a lil kid.
A bit too little i was then to take it all in.

In that situation I would say there totally is a special connection. I can only hope my yellow Porsche and I will have a similar bond when I have enough money to buy her in a million years ;)

One of my trucks also happens to be the same vintage as myself... possibly one reason I've kept it around. One day I'll fix up the old beast... she isnt much to look at right now (more rusty now too that pic is probably 5yrs old from my last house)...

people who don't know cars would say she's not much to look at. Me on the other hand, i see a beautiful beast with the potential to become even more of a beast!

Re: Which decade do you wish you where born into?
I'm happy enough being from the 90's myself

Re: Which decade do you wish you where born into?
You have to dig deep for good music of today, just saying haha. But I like the 80s. It was more wild. I feel like there are more groups that happened then that I could fit in with more. And everything wasn't yet all about paper. You could walk in and get a job at a fast food place lol. No debt. Airplanes gave you real food XD

Re: Which decade do you wish you where born into?
The 1910's... so long as I was white....and male. No offense.

'90s, as in the 2090's, after this whole nightmare will end.
