Every conversation about music by everyone over the age of twenty-five: I hate what teens listen to. Pop music peeked at the exact moment when I was most emotionally vulnerable to trite love songs.
I listen to the music my 13 year old daughter listens to and think “OMG what is this c**p?” But then I remember my dad saying the same thing…so I chill out a bit.

Game Of Love, Wayne Fontana
The purpose of a man is to love a woman
And the purpose of a woman is to love her man
So come on baby let’s start today, come on baby let’s play
The game of [(love)] love [(love)] love
La la la la la love
It started long ago in the Garden of Eden
When Adam said to Eve, “Baby, you’re for me.”
.
And music was all down hill from there.

Any music after 1972 is ‘new’ music. Just sayin’.
