We live in a time that nothing will be forgotten.

Taylor Swift. The Next generation won’t like her. Her music sucks and she’s too

This is so wrong. About 80% of mothers are going to be listening to Taylor in

That’s exactly why the 5 year old will think it’s dumb old lady music. I do

This is why I am so drawn to Neil Diamond songs.

She too flat. Her acoustics are always flat

I'm pretty sure she paid somebody to help balance out her flatness.

She’s getting worse and worse.

If a middle aged man on cb thinks that probably means she is getting more

I like music. I am forced to hear her music. I can tell you she’s gotten worse

My daughter will listen to "don't answer me", so there is hope for the rising generation.

Avril Lavigne, the bands BUSH & STP, Disney's Ariana Grande & Selena Gomez

People have already forgotten Bush. STP might be a band that gets more popular

I don't think they will be forgotten, but I am surprised at how (comparatively) little R.E.M.is talked about by people

1/20/23 10:01am

REM is still one of my favorite bands. Never got anywhere near U2 popularity.

Yeah, when I was typing the post originally, I said that they reached comparable heights, since that's how I remembered

I saw REM in '88. He doesn't move much on stage. He did have long hair.

Really most of them. I feel like Michael Jackson faded pretty quickly. And he was a huge star. Obviously he's not going

He faded himself. He went weird and quit working on new music but I’m not sure
