[QUOTE="GorillaG, post: 4273805, member: 49083"] Granted change is inevitable. Sinatra hated Elvis upon his arrival but grew to appreciate him. His pet peeve was singers who don't enunciate so I'm pretty sure Louie Louie wasn't on his jukebox. I just read that Paul McCartneys father was a musician and asked him " wouldn't it sound much better if you sang She Loves You Yes Yes Yes?" I had teenage sisters as a young boy so I grew up loving music from the 60's and 70's and even the 50's although I heard that 2nd hand. I know every generation hates the new music but the music my kids listened to was horrendous. We've reached an era where not only do you not need actual musical ability it seems to be resented. One of my sons was in several bands and I feigned appreciation to be supportive but all they did was SCREAM it was torture, and most rap is just an excuse for the talentless who can't sing to talk their way to success. Sorry but I grew up when the focus was on the deepness of love for each other not drugs, sex, and money. I liked those things but music was for emotion not the crassness of life. The kids all stand on my lawn waiting for the bus....it doesn't bother me, but the depth and the rapidity to which our culture is in a free fall does. I live in Oklahoma anyway, it's not actually grass, just closely mowed weeds.... [/QUOTE]
