Uh, except that I don't consider anything in the eighties to be CLASSIC,
because it's too new. It doesn't mean that I don't like it, it means that
I don't consider it to be classic yet. I figure a solid 25 years (my own
scale) is a minimum test of time for popular music. That's just how I see
it. Since you were actually BORN in the eighties (heck, almost in the
nineties), you probably don't see it nearly the same way. But I actually
saw the videos for Take On Me and Thriller when they were brand new -
while it was a while ago, I don't think I'm hardly old enough to be
nostalgic. *cheezy grin*

(No offense intended to those of you born before the seventies.)
