Just tuned in to Capital Radio and it appears to me that every other song is a ripoff off of an old tune with the obligatory piece of rapping in it. Just got to figure out a way to update “My Old Man’s a Dustman”and I’ve cracked it. Am I showing my age

Most new music has been rubbish for a while. There are a number of 'artists' who appear to be incredibly famous and successful and yet I couldnt name or think of any of their songs. Maybe I'm just old now.

Capital radio isn’t where you’ll hear good new music.

Little tip: YouTube, search KEXP, they have a list of hundreds of sessions by newer bands, and there’s some absolute gold in there

It’s not just the music,it’s the dance moves as well, can’t remember the Stones walking up and down the the stage holding there b- llocks and pointing to the floor whilst crouching like a Japanese sniper?

How do.you see the dance moves on Capital Radio?

I expect my Parents and Grandparents were saying the same thing in the 70's.

My dear old Dad was no fan of Deep Purple when I bought Machine Head in the early 70's

Who on earth is Taylor swift? Every time I open a paper or turn on the TV I see her boat race staring back at me. I am not a huge fan of music generally and certainly not any of today’s offerings. I am with you monkey.

Just a thought, but maybe this thread isn’t for you then.

You knew where you stood in the 70’s and 80’s, the bee Gees,”More than a woman” The Police “Every Breath you Take” and black Lace “ Agadoo”quality. What do we get now. Paul Russell “Lil Boo Thing” or as sung “lil boo ting” wtf

How can you not know who she is if you watch tv and read papers?

Tbf he said he opened the paper, didn't say he read it.

Listen to some K-pop, beradogs. It’ll cure your fear of death and have you actively welcoming its cold embrace

Other than 'shake it off', couldnt name another song of hers. And she's one of todays greats?

I reckon bera has shaken it off a few times to this woman whose face is all over his papers

My exposure to Kpop is limited to BTS but come on, they don't half put out some bangers.

Stick on a Spotify playlist of the essential Taylor Swift.
I mean, she’s an industry, it’s all very corporate and carefully done, but when you actually just listen to her music I suspect you’ll be - at worst - “ok not my cup of tea but bloody hell she’s got the tunes and she can’t half sing”

I have tickets to see her at Wembley. Apparently she puts on a 3 hour show.
