Jay & The Americans - This Magic Moment

Now this song brings back memories. We have the Best of Jay & The Americans cassette and we always played it on the car ride to my grandma's house (this was back in the day, of course). Our family loves that cassette. The B side had the Best of Gary Puckett and the Union Gap. Gosh, we loved that cassette. My sister actually just found it and my dad found an old cassette player and she blasted it. How can you go wrong with 60s music?

Thank you! So many young people (haha, I sound old, but I mean people my age, too) just disregard music that was made before they were born, so I'm glad that you appreciate older music! I grew up on oldies and for many years, I just listened to Disney music and oldies. I've since expanded my horizons, obviously, but music from the '50s and '60s definitely holds a place deep in my heart.

Oh, and, um, Demi Lovato's "Here We Go Again" is on the radio right now.

Note to TheSequelofDisney:

Glad to hear someone else loves the music of the 60's. Jay and the Americans and Gary Puckett, what a combination. Some really good tunes and a lot of memories for me.

I have always said that I will never play a bad current song when I can play a great oldie from the 60's.

Totally agreed! You know, it's so strange... People call me 'old' or 'old-fashioned' when I say this, but: in the 1960's music still *meant* something. I mean, yes, there was also a lot of crap among the good stuff, but it was the *good* stuff that was popular and which was played on radio all the time. You know, what we now have in the top 40's hit lists (or top 50's, or whatever you call it in the States) is nowhere nearly as artistic, experimental, original and groundbreaking as the music that was in the hit lists in the 1960's.

Think about it: what new, modern music we call 'underground' or 'indie' nowadays would've been mainstream in the 1960's! What we consider as extraordinary music from the 1960's was mainstream back then. You could turn on your radio and hear 'Like a Rolling Stone', 'The Sounds of Silence', 'Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds' and 'White Rabbit' all in one row. Can you imagine future generations looking back at the 2000's and say our mainstream music (the hit charts) were filled with great artistic songs?

Hell no.

The meaning of music is subjective. Look at how many people were moved to tears by Christina Aguilera's "Beautiful." Based on that, you had better believe that song meant something... to some people. For others, she was still the same tart who just got finished dancing in mud and hoochie-ing around in chaps in a boxing ring (there was mud in one of her videos- right? Who here's an Xtina fan?).

Anyway...

Imperial Teen - "Our Time"

Yeah, in the Dirrty video.

Um, and a commercial is on right now... to answer this thread's question. And I don't even know the name of the song that played previously.

Sophie B. Hawkins - "Damn I Wish I Was Your Lover"

That may very well be, but it's a simple pop song. It's a very standard ballad. Well performed, well executed, yes. But there's nothing about it that makes it stand out from the rest of whatever there is on the charts. Obviously, that's what I was going at. Let me put it this way: music as original, groud-breaking and experimental as that of Pink Floyd, The Beatles, Bob Dylan, Jefferson Airplane etc. would nowadays not be in the mainstream. It would not be on the hit charts. It would be 'underground' or 'indie'. That was my point. It's all the same kind of pop nowadays.
