I'm looking at / listening to music from 45 years ago

Music from 1981 to be exact. And it feels like it was just yesterday.

This would be like listening to music from 1935 back in 1981.

Time has lost all meaning for me :upside_down_face:

I was watching the karate kid on Netflix. And I just noticed how different the music was from today. Do you know the music they put movies?

1980’s music is pretty cool i reckon. The soundtracks for the karate kid trilogy movies made me love some of them.
I like music from a lot of eras. A lot of classical from the 19th century. Im planning to go see a local orchestra in a couple weeks. They’re performing some great ones. So keen.

Sometimes I listen to music from 1934 because my mom was born then, or music from my grandmother’s day.

I still think the 80s were 20 years ago.

Here’s the first song Madonna ever released, as a single, a few weeks after I was born in 1982.

Like a Prayer was one of the first albums I owned. The cassette tape smelled like patchouli.

Anyway, 80s music is awesome.

I loved a lot of music from that time frame. New Order, Echo and the Bunnymen, Bauhaus, Siouxsie, Killing Joke, Talking Heads, the Residents, Tuxedomoon, King Crimson, David Bowie, Kraftwerk, Wire, Magazine, Buzzcocks, The Fall, the Cure, it goes on and on. A very fertile time frame. New technology and new equipment from that period contributed.
