> music you grew up listening to isn’t better, you just grew up listening to it

Well you also don't remember all the bad songs just the good ones.




I find it very amusing people we're outraged about "WAP" and considering it a new low for music.

The songs popular when I was a child and a teenager:

"Baby Got Back"

"Kim"

"The Bad Touch"


> "Baby Got Back"

If you remember the maniacal focus on thinness in the 2000s, this was actually an important and supportive song.

(Also, he's a hobbyist electrical engineer now.)


I think i was too young at the time to get that. An interesting point.


Going one generation deeper, "Timothy" by The Buoys.

Or back to the 20s and 30s, Lucille Bogan's "Shave 'Em Dry" or any number of options from the dirty blues.
