[QUOTE="djleekee, post: 550054, member: 55"] [b]Tunes[/b] I feel you are all being a bit harsh about tunes that we have all loved growing up with over the years and that have shaped a generation. Of course if you hear any track over and over you will tire of it but it doesnt necessarily mean its shite! Most of the tracks you mention I actually still like and if listening to a radio station will make me turn up the volume and either sing or dance along to. I dont know if all you guys are listening to too much oldskool and have oldskool fatigue but I try and vary my musical listening experience so not to bor emy brain by listenin to the same stuff all the time. I still get a buzz out of listening to Playing With Knives which is surely still one of the top ten oldskool tracks of all times? A few tracks that I used to hate back then (but listening back to them now dont annoy me as much as ive aged and mellowed!):- [B]TC 1992 - Funky Guitar.
