your boomer canon

[Corpsey]

Don't think I've ever met anyone who likes guns and roses beyond finding a couple of songs funny on a karaoke night

 

[other_life]

you are over-fortunate

 

[linebaugh]

No one likes Guns N’ Roses but if you attuned to their frequency they are mesmerizing.

we did a thread about how they are the archetypal cd band. today it all sounds lame. but tomorrow it will be different

[thirdform]

thats classically GEN X-ER music

they straddle the two divides. at least in the UK.

basically cus they're white northern lads who cosplay about being the most oppressed and deprived people to have ever existed boomers love them.

 

[thirdform]

the yanks rightly see them as a bunch of whiney art ponces. they get that right for that band. Not so much for the Cure though.

Duran Duran is not really that though.

 

[0bleak]

Duran Duran were probably the biggest new wave band.
The girls loved them - maybe the biggest thing for them since The Beatles.

Humid, hot summer day in the south... you and other neighborhood kids piled into the back of a pick-up truck owned by one of the kid's moms taking you all to the swimming pool - oh, look, there's a couple of young women there suntanning with their tops off. unfortunately, facing the wrong direction - I wonder if they will turn over... hmm, I guess no such luck.
blasting on transistor radios next to them

all my really favorite boomer music was primarily made and listened to by the boomers who died of AIDS or living clandestine lives

We, so tired of all the darkness in our lives, with no more angry words to say
