[FairWarning]

Oasis all day for me.

 

[Ilov80s]

Random assortment of songs. What is the connection?

 

[rockaction]

Had to go with Oasis and I generally seriously dislike almost anything Gen Z likes besides their absurd rap.

Queen and Fleetwood Mac?? Ugh. Send that **** back to the kitchen and please don’t take offense but I’d like something less overdone.

Go on...

Queen and Fleetwood Mac??

Did they cover Zombie and Summer Breeze?

Queen and Fleetwood Mac.


Go on...

Queen is okay but probably the last of the big bands I’d pick as a sort of generational agreement.

Fleetwood Mac reminds me of bad fashion, older hi-fi (not necessarily a bad thing), but just sort of a period in time and in style and class that gives me the willies. Their fans strike me as believers in astrology and prone to cult recruitment. They met in Atherton in ‘66 and SF was about to explode and so many things out of there and out of that era are just oogy.

Never dug them. Not even when I was a kid.

Heh. No, just a rhetorical response to Gen Z loving the Mac.

Thoughts on the Eagles, Flying Burrito Brothers and other bands that on the surface have nothing to do with this thread?

Heh. I think I just explained it to Doc. Oasis is selling out the Hollywood Bowl for nights on end and it’s a young, Gen Z crowd as detailed in a bunch of articles I’ve read. Young kids paying gobsmacking amounts of cash for merch wearing Lennon glasses and bucket hats.

It’s back!

Gen Z also digs Queen and the Mac.

So youve read rhat gen z likes Oasis and also likes those other bands. That's the connection?



So...these gen z people...do they also like other things?

Fifty years later, "Silver Springs" remains a breakup ballad for the ages.

Don’t Stop Us Now: Why Queen Remains Popular among Gen Z

Pace senior Jessika Pietryka stood mesmerized at what she was seeing at the Bell Centre in Montreal, Canada. The extravagant lights and roaring music that played throughout the venue made the international trip worth it for Pietryka, who sought out to see her favorite band, Queen, live in...

Queen isn’t as overwhelmingly popular as the Mac as far as Gen Z goes.

 

[zamboni]

Really good diverse selection here - all killer songs in their own right.

I give the edge to Summer Breeze - great harmonies and not too many songs had the gumption to pull off a toy piano (the great Larry Knechtel here). Plus my first dog's name was Jasmine.

Dude, they assiduously love the Mac. And they like to wear Floyd shirts.

As for what they like—they like ****ty mustaches, especially the MLB pitchers who are aces that are one pitch away from Tommy John surgery.

I mean, its a list of 4 songs to rate...so i guess free association offers more opportunity for discussion.

In an odd, odd way.


Burma!

I give the edge to Summer Breeze - great harmonies

Also have to give the nod to VH's harmonies on Top Jimmy though - I don't think they ever harmonized better than this in the Roth days.

Top Jimmy and his Rhythm Kings
Top Jimmy cooks
Top Jimmy swings
He’s got the looks
Top Jimmy he’s the king

Summer Breeze all day

 

[Ilov80s]

Zombie. Easily. Like super easily.

 

[shuke]

This is like the perfect mix of dissimilar great songs. It makes choosing difficult. 10/10 thread, will read again.

 

[rockaction]

I would like to change my vote to “Summer Breeze” in later September.

 

[rockaction]

Sitting here at a restaurant whose music is clearly updated by the week and “Hang On Sloopy” was bumping for Boomers and retro oldsters like me and “Don’t Look Back In Anger” by Oasis came on for the Zs and Xs (me again).

Not a bad “wait for your food while we slowly get it out to you” song. And I am now the Target Demographic. Sorry, no capital or bank to justify it on my end but I guess I’ll take it.

Nice mixed selection but a no-brainer for me.

With Zombie a clear 2nd.

Showed up for the covers. Should have left disappointed but didn't.
