I believe these kind of conversations probably went the same way back when I was a kid listening to Queen, KC and The Sunshine Band, Aerosmith, Boston, Doobie Bros, Bee Gees, Billy Joel, Barry Manilow, and on and on I could go, MY parents hated the stuff...and insisted that only THEIR generation's music was good and worth listening to, and all of ours was crap...and my GRANDPARENTS said the same about my mom and dad's music, and their love for ELVIS, Little Richard, Brenda Lee, George Jones, Tanya Tucker, Ray Charles, Beatles, etc...so I believe it is a generational thing, that the one before it believes wholeheartedly that the music they grew up to, made love to, partied to and just lived to is the best. Maybe because it has certain memories attached to it...not sure...but one thing I do know, I like the older stuff, like my mom enjoyed and I also enjoy the new stuff. Not all of it, some of it seems silly, but dance worthy and no less than my day when Donna Summer was singing BAD GIRLS...no better lyrics with that than the music in clubs today..but it moves me.. Actually I am quite excited, as I am going to see Lady Gaga in March with guess who... my mom!! She is taking me for my 50th birthday. She is not that familiar with her music but is willing to go with me and experiment a little...and keep her mind open. I believe we can like a little of this and alittle of that and to paint a whole generation's music as one is best and the other is crap is painting with a wide brush and maybe not so fair? Good and bad apples in every generation.. JMHO  Kimberly ps...and I am one of the stupid masses, I own all of Lady Gaga's cds, Pink, Kelly Clarkson, and they seem to get along just fine beside my old time bluegrass, Elvis and Ray Charles cds...

"Do not endeavor to be the smartest kid in a dumb class. Instead, you are better off being the dumbest kid in the smartest class, where you will be challenged and you will learn. If you aren't growing, you are dying." -Brian Austin Whitney
