There's also this for those who need proof.

Thank you! Sadly enough, it’s not surprising. We didn’t have school shootings when we were young. :/

You're not getting old. Good music can be appreciated across all age groups. I like Gershwin and Cole Porter as much as Led Zeppelin and Beck.
They were all musical geniuses in their own way and part of the popular music scene in their day. But sometime around 2000 the music industry was infected with the Cabal plot to replace beauty in the arts with ugliness. Look at what passes for modern "art," and sells for millions. Or the actors in Hollywood who fill the lead roles. Tom Holland and Timothee Chalamet are now playing roles once played by Robert Redford, Paul Newman and Clark Gable. Femininity has replaced the strong, masculine role model. And don't get me started on Zendaya. Not only is "she" most likely a he, but making Zendaya the lead actress in most Hollywood blockbusters is a real insult to male movie watchers.
Most popular music, like the song here, is shallow, repetitive and uninspired. Which pretty accurately describes everything these days.

You’re so right about the change in the music industry. My husband is a pretty well know sessiin drummer since the 80’s and still plays with many famous people. He too listens to music of all genres and maintains what we have been for awhile and what we are currently being exposed to is anything, but the feel good music of the past. I’m with him on that. Music used to feel good; lift your mood. Today’s music has an angry feel to it. Maybe not all of it, but so much of it feels like bad vibes.

I agree with you on all points. It’s the fall of Rome. Seriously.
