Modern pop is objectively lacking - no intros, no solos, little distinction between verses and choruses, no surprise factor, dumbed down melodies, no key changes. Music from the 80's was more sophisticated and will stand the test of time. Current pop won't.
@Kingfisher1215
@Kingfisher1215 Год назад
I never thought the music was that great in the 80s. It was just producer driven evolutionary music, but what the times did have was a huge breadth of music and styles and no sound defined the times. In total, it really was a great time for music.
