70's FTW

Think about this...when you listen to regular radio (not satellite), what generation do you hear the most music from? The 70's. That's because it was built to last. Songs from Led Zep, Pink Floyd, Thin Lizzy, The Eagles, Jimmy Buffet, etc. still sound as good today as they did back then. Keep in mind that these artists have multiple hits as well. For those of you who think the 80's had the best music, I ask you this...what other GREAT song did Flock of Seagulls have? What other hit did A-Ha have? What other hit did Vixen have? You get the point. I don't believe that in 20 years we're still going to be hearing Korn's "A.D.I.D.A.S." on the radio or Fall Out Boy's "Dance Dance". These songs just don't have staying power even if they are popular songs.
