Why doesn't modern music catch up to the 80s? Compare "Watch Me" ( Silento ) To "Sultans of Swing" ( Dire Straits ) One song is absolute crap music in the background that is almost impossible to hear, with an atrocious voice in the back screaming "Silento" whilst Sultans of Swing is an actual bombardment of talent and actual music. I don't want to pick apart modern culture, because there is a lot of better things now a days, but, some of the songs we listen to make me want to cut my ears off. |

You cant define modern music as worse than older music. There's plently of great music out there these days, which many would argue are much better than music from the past. But it's really just opinion.

| ^ See, that's what I mean. There is plenty of HORRIBLE 80s stuff and AMAZING modern music. Just not the ones that get POPULAR. |

I like modern music, but I do agree some popular music is crap. It kinda depends what you listen to...

You realize that there was quite a bit of terrible music that was popular in the 80s, too, right? Need I remind you of Don't Worry, Be Happy?
You can always pick out the worst songs of a time period and compare them to something better from another. I'm not a fan of the song, but give me Uptown Funk over "Hey Mickey" any day. |

This makes no sense. You obviously don't realize there were crap pop groups in the 80's like Silento, and you also don't realize there are plenty of Alt Rock groups these days that have equally good or better music than Dire Straits...

| I find old music much worse because of the sound quality. So I'm going to have to support the exact opposite of what this thread says. |

@jamil
the 80s was filled with as much trash as any other decade to be honest most of the POPULAR 80s songs were pretty good (i'm personally a big fan of new wave), and a lot of popular modern music is crap

as i said before,
the 80s was filled with as much trash as any other decade
and to be honest it's all subjective to one's music taste, just because you don't like a specific song, genre or movement doesn't mean it sucks
some people actually find blood on the dance floor good not me i think they're horrible but some people

I don't think the 80's was completely trash.
