After hearin today's music, how did parents think these cool bopaholics did terrible music back when these songs played on top 40?
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:21pm

Just a rhythm and routine I get into each week. Use my Dad for ideas etc.

Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:23pm
Eric R:

↳ WLSClark @10:18
funny you should ask it in that way. I accept that today's music is fine even though I don't get it. But if we're listening, hoping to hear a connection to the music we like then we're doing just what those "grownups" did back then
Avatar 10:24pm
WLSClark:

↳ Eric R @10:23
Yeah I suppose. My parents were very good with 4 boys into top 40 and only wanted us to "turn it down." My dad liked Eddy Arnold and big band, but had no issues with us kids' music.
