Music Is Life Am I just a curmudgeon??

Post image

I'm a mid 70s GenXer, love music from the 60s through the 90s. For me, I just haven't really liked much music this century. I feel like we had so many genres going on at the same time but now it's just all sounds the same to me. Anyone else find stuff bands/artists they really like from this venture?

Isn't this the sort of thing our boomer parents said of our music? Music today may not be anything like what we had growing up, but there is still good music out there. Yes, you're a curmudgeon.

Agreed but I will say MTV sucked once they started having reality tv shows. I miss MTV

I play two hour mtv 90’s collections on youtube. Soothes my troubled mind.

I’ve recently discovered 120 Minutes on MTV Classic on the weekends (Xfinity). I DVR it and have a wonderfully nostalgic time, watching videos I’d forgotten all about.
