Post Reply New Topic

I am a young person and still studying at university. But I like to listen to songs from the 40's 50's and 60's.
They seem to me to be melodious and commercial mush served by this metrosexualist from Canada, you knew whom i refer here

It happens to me sometimes I listen to Frank Sinatra songs especially "Fly Me To The Moon" and " and "LET IT SNOW,LET IT SNOW,LET IT SNOW"

I also like listen to Beatles songs.
As to the modern songs I like them too, but not all

Sometimes it seems to me that I'm a weirdo, but i have Asperger after all

if that's the case you would love to listen to:

I think it means you have good taste

But then again, I'm in my 50s. Though I like to listen to older music too, from the 20s and 30s as well as the 40s through 70s.

What I figure is, people still listen to Bach and Mozart and classical music, why not Sinatra or the Beatles or Gershwin songs?

I'm a 27 year old but I listen to songs from the 1650s, 1760s, and 1870s. Go figure!

You're not unlike me, OP; in my case it's the music from the 1970s-mid 1990s (mostly 1980s).

I'm 16, and this is my Oldies Thread, which is just a small fraction of the kind of stuff I listen to:

This is my Youtube Music Channel, which I post my favorite stuff, it will give you another overview of the kind of stuff I listen to:

Basically I'm trying to show you that it's normal and good that you listed to what would be considered "Oldies". It's a lot better than the crap these days (which suffers from brickwalling and severe compression which = ear fatigue)

I like some old music like that. I'm odd, in that I listen to music that's probably pretty popular in your country, Eurodisco/Italodisco. Nobody at all likes it in America. I love the stuff, though. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wt8hZLck0Mo, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uG-ZIgVJnR8 Stuff like that. It's simple pop music, but I like it a lot. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fJKDIf8JwYE Apparently that was on Polish TV.

Anyway, my favorite old singers are Dean Martin and Perry Como.
Dean Martin - In the Misty Moonlight

Also, I think Perry Como's version of "Fly Me to the Moon" is better than Sinatra's, he almost turns it into a different song.

I feel most modern music has lost the sense of....classical romanticism? Does that make sense? Most modern music nowadays talks about things just like hooking up in a club or some other kinda thing like that. I dunno, there's no sense of "romantic" going on in most of today's music.
