Why was Musica so much better in the 60's 70's and 80's?

Because bullshit hadn't been perfected yet.

In Two words:Michael Jackson.:b
Because back then songs werent about sex,drugs,cheating and getting away with it,who f***ed who,who's chick bad,kissing ppl through the phone,people not liking your girlfriend so te should get a new one,people being in a state of disturbia,grown men walking around in leopard print biancheria intima, undies doing the wiggle,wiggle wiggle yeah,just things that have no value for your life...They just make some people feel weird and insecure about themselves because they havent done the stupid things the songs talk about,which leads to them doing unthinkable things.thats what i think.
And te see,people back then had ACTUAL talent.They didnt computerise their voices and could sing live.These days when te go to a concert,its ALL Lip syncing and they cant even dance while doing it.Look at people like michael jackson,he could Do a super complex dance and sing live at the same time-BECAUSE he had ACTUAL talent.

Because nowadays we have rap about having sex and big butts. At least that's what mainstream is about. Good Musica nowadays still exists, te just have to dig :P

cause it was simple
and easy to listen to =)

Opinions, opinions, opinions.
Some of today's Musica is good. It depends on what te listen to.
And, again, opinions.

te sound just like my best friend. She hates new Musica and loves 70's and 80's music.

Anyway, I like some of today's music, but I tend to listen to Musica from the past decade, noting too old.

But I mostly just listen to Anime soundtracks XD

No idea, but I agree. :/

This is a great question. I think Musica was SOO much better in the 60s, 70s, and 80s because people had real talent for one. And they also looked good, didn't use autotune to make their voices sound "better", they could play live. I also think people also had something good to write about and they had great song Scrivere ability. I mean no a days te just have all this crap songs with no meaning to them. Back then, pretty much all songs had some true meaning to them. Now, not so much.

IKR!!! Finally someone who agrees with me. Todays pop Musica sucks, although there are some good rock bands like the strokes, and the arctic monkeys

Because voices being Autotuned is too overrated .

That's an opinion te have. And I share it with you... ;) In my opinion, Musica from 60's, 70's, 80's and 90's was much better than what we have today. I hear lots of recente songs that have the same two rythms over and over again.

"I'm sexy and I know it, know it, know it..."

...Over... and over... AGAIN... Sickening. There are a few recente songs that I like though. Such as "Someone I Used To Know", da Gotye.

te forgot the 50's and I agree I grew up listing to all that my grandpa was a nut for that music

real talent actually mattered back then

i only listen to Musica from the 70's, and sometimes 80's and 60's too

but after 1990...total garbage!

(no offence)

I wouldnt' say the 60's had good music, maybe not even the 70's. I think the 80's had the best music.

Well,my opinion about today is that Musica years fa was all writen da hand and played also. Lots of today's Musica is putten up together with many computer programmes,it's cool to me tough. Many people say that years fa singers used to sing any kind of song with such emotion, like te can really feel that the song was not written just like this but in some special way, and alot of them say that the Musica that's today isn't shown up with such strong emotions and as we all know people, style , Musica etc. changes very much through the years so these could be the reason why Musica was better years fa than now , but there are still many artists today that Amore to sing their cuore out with passion. :)There are also many new styles of Musica these days. & also the messages of the songs. Today there's mostly about ''pure sex'' & stuff. Back then it was ''pure Amore making'' :) <3333

Musica was a lot simpler and very basic back then.

Today, artists tend to add a lot più flash to be ambitious and innovative. It's good if you're into it. It's not if you're not.

Back then we didn't have:

-LMFAO, who sing about how good looking they THINK they are...
-Selena Gomez, who sings about how great Amore is...with Justin Bieber...
-T-Pain who loves his autotune...

And so many più that I can't remember at the moment.

It wasn't.


Well, these days, I tend to lean away from rap, hip hop, metal, rock, alternative, o anything accepted da the general public here in California. But there's plenty of new Musica that's just fantastic! For example, this awesome song was made just a few years back. Sung da Yoko Ishida, the best singer ever~! It's called White Destiny, and it's so beautiful!

This is sooo true i i only listen to 80s Musica o older. im so sick and tired of these lyrics about tits, o dudes with shades and cars and girls with big asses in the back round >_<..id rather john lennon,mj,madonna etc

I have to disagree with you, I'm afraid.

Every time period has it's share of good and bad music, including the present day. It's just that most of the bad Musica from the 60's, 70's and 80's has been forgotten about (I hope).

There is good modern Musica out there, it just might take some time to find it. And if we're lucky all the bad Musica we have now will be Lost in years to come.

I definitely agree with you. My answer to this would be that the Musica industry is running out of ideas. Everything good has been taken, and whatever crap is left over is being thrown at us.

Pop may have gone awful but the best Musica genre which will always be the best is Death Metal and Heavy Metal and Punk Rock and Hard Rock and Hip-Hop!!

Because Musica back then wasn't autotuned, stupid, o slutty. But there are some really cool modern musicians/bands, but most of them are in the rock genre, like Pink, Within Temptation, Skillet, and Cryoshell.

My theory:
We didn't have autotune, so talent was necessary.

But its all a matter of opinion really.

well it matters like acdc,queen,ozzy yeah they were good but some people like eminem, icp,lady gaga beat them

I guess its because people were più creative back then. Most songs have been recycled and nothing is really new anymore. There are songs about anything now and the songs don't have to make sense.

Considering my preferito artists are modern, I would say it's not all too bad. But that's your opinion. And in a way you're right, especially when it comes to today's hip-hop and rap music. My boyfriend says that he likes 80's and 90's hip-hop/rap better because it isn't all auto-tuned and most of them talked about stuff going on in the world and others things rather than "screwing big booty bitches" (and that's really how he detto it too), doing drugs, and shooting people like today's hip-hop and rap. And I don't completely like the pop stuff. While I do like Katy Perry, Christina Aguilera, and Britney Spears, I don't like Justin Bieber, Miley Cyrus, The Jonas Brothers, o Lil' Wayne. (No offense to anyone who likes these artists)

I actually like today's music. Not the mainstream stuff, but the underrated artists that actually have meaning to their songs.

Because people are uncreative. I don't really like Musica from the 60s, 70s, and 80s, though. Nor do I like most of what plays these days (with a few exceptions.) There are some più mainstream artists that I like like Taylor veloce, swift and Nicki Minaj, but mostly I stick to più unknown bands like The Pierces and Digital Daggers.

People in the 60's-80's acctually possesed talent! Today they may be able to write a stupid song that might rhyme but they cant sing they autotune :( Some of the songs are okayish but it will never compare to the oldies! Its not just the Musica either its the whole era! Everbody thinks everything is about drugs, sex, alchohol, and parties that also involves the other stuff! I HATE IT!!! I wish I was born in the 80's!

I don't really like 60's, 70's and 80's music.

I like today's Musica better.

Don't forget the 90s. Metallica was epic. They still are.
