By the same token - a recording of someone walking around for 3 minutes is also a "song".

You're comparing ambient sounds, which are more than likely made with musical instruments, to someone walking around? That's not a very good analogy.

agree with sacul that the 80's as a whole sucked for music in general

Agreed. There were maybe a handful of songs from the 80s that I would say are worth listening to. The 90s, on the other hand, were a decade where different musical directions were explored. Some good, some bad.

There's always good music in each decade.  To generalize is not being honest.

You're the one that posted it!

My ex watched 90210 religiously, so I know stuff about it by osmosis.

Like that fact that Enuff Z'Nuff's "Hot Little Summer Girl" was the background music for a volleyball scene.  :lol

I know like 3 of them . Jason Priestley.  Siobahn Whatshername and the other guy next to those two whose name I cant remember.


Edit : Shannon Doherty.

Jason Priestley was in a few episodes of Haven and Luke Perry was in an episode of Leverage.

Didn't one of them star in a Buffy The Vampire Slayer movie that had nothing to do with the TV show ?

Luke Perry...yes. He was Pike. Peewee Herman was the other vampire.

Heroes is a great song, but the album is just ok.
Heroes is easily in my top 10 favourite songs of all time, but the album wouldn't make my top 5 Bowie albums.

Off topic.  It can't be "controversial" if it is undisputed.

Banned.

Dunno if I dig The Incident than much, but it's certainly a damn fine album, kinda underrated tbh.

Tbh my comment about The Incident is partly a statement about how well I like The Incident and partly a statement about how much I don't really care about a whole lot of SW's music.

I've never liked Bowie's voice but Heroes is especially bad.

I've never heard Leslie Nielsen sing so I'm not sure what your point is.

But I should have saved it for this.

Overrated perhaps, but still good. There's more to the universe than Pink Floyd and Led Zeppelin.

Yeah I don't think the 70's is bad at all. It's just that people often make it sound like the 70's were all that and the 80's, 90's and 00's was garbage. Personally I think there's just as much goodness from those decades.

AOR is the one genre (not counting random fad genres) that I universally despise.

Super Dude

Oh, here's one: I find The Dear Hunter's Act II to be the least enjoyable of all the albums so far, including Migrant. It's also way overrated.
