Smiles. I think that's why I like it. I veer toward that. But it is an excellently done/produced piece of music.
Ah, look at all the lonely people...
That’s Lennon. No Beatles. I like that one, too. I think I’m about the only conservative that does like Imagine. :)
“Check out the video I posted in #12, the guy analytically explains how/why popular music has gone downhill since then.”
I’ll check it out when I can.
It’s definitely true that it’s gone downhill really bad. It’s all manufactured and fake.
Worse than ever.
There’s still plenty of good new music being made, though. You just won’t ever hear it on commercial radio, you have to go find it.

I’ve got over 3500 songs on my Amazon Prime. Adding more each week. I love Amazon Prime. Makes my two hour daily commute to and from work very tolerable.

It was an era when the likes of Frank Sinatra, The Electric Prunes, Bob Dylan, James Brown would be found alongside each other in the Top 40 and played on the same station.
The Beatles, even the mailing it in stuff, was superior...jmo.

The string section was used beautifully.
Yes. I love what George Martin did for them.
I might hang around for Black Hole Sun but I would change the station for any of the others...
Wendy Wilson and Carnie Wilson are both great singers.

Ditto, you gotta hunt your druthers down - or sometimes just stumble upon a sound you like, but they’s still some good music to be found.
