Will any songs from 2005 be remember in 10-15 years.
I personally love listening to songs from the early 90's and 80's. I even love listening to the oldies station in my car. But music nowadays, don't seem like it has legs. The past couple of years once the song gets overplayed nobody likes it anymore, and it is all pop music. So will any current songs from this year be remembered.
The only songs i can think of are some of the Songs from Greenday. Like American Idoit, When September Ends. This was a very bad year in music. |
I think "My Humps" will be remembered, but not in a good way.
|
Green Day songs were from 2004, not 2005. You're right though; this was not a great year for songwriting. Maybe the one song with lasting potential is Bruce Springsteen's "Devils And Dust", which while nowhere near Bruce's best work and having a pretty forgettable melody, has some pretty universal writing on the nature of warfare and insight into the mind of a soldier that might well keep it memorable for a long time.

I'd have to say everything from The Black Eyed Peas will live forever, but only because Best Buy will never stop playing that stupid commercial.
LOUDAH! :hairpull: I do like Game's Hate it or Love it remix, that'll be on the rap oldies station. :lol: |
I think Audioslave will be remembered.
Mars Volta? Death Cab for Cutie? |
The way music has headed starting in the 90's, the only way a song from this year will be remembered is if it's sampled by a rap group.

<hr> Now for all you naysayers, I suggest you simply stop listening to the radio. Since the beginning of time, radio has been playing crap. That hasn't changed, that's not going to change. You may have occasional stations that are pretty good, but when was the last time radio discovered a critically well-received act? (Not that the critics are the end-all and be-all, but I would rather have any music critic pick my songs over the programming manager at 105.5 "The Zone" or whatever the radio station is called). The answer is yes. I will not name any particular albums that I will be listening to because that's a bit of poppycock. But what I can do is tell you albums I've listened to from 1995 and 1990 this year: 1995 Björk - Post Tricky - Maxinquaye Genius/GZA - Liquid Swordz Keith Jarrett - At the Blue Note Greyboy Allstars - West Coast Boogaloo Aceyalone - All Balls Don't Bounce Raekwon - Only Built 4 Cuban Linx... Oasis - (What's the Story) Morning Glory 311 - 311 (The Blue Album) Black Grape - It's Great When You're Straight Yeah PJ Harvey - To Bring You My Love Pulp - Different Class Radiohead - The Bends Smashing Pumpkins - Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness Thurston Moore - Psychic Hearts Yo La Tengo - Electr-O-Pura that dog. - Totally Crushed Out 1990 A Tribe Called Quest - People's Instinctive Travels Happy Mondays - Thrills, Pills, and Bellyaches Breeders - Pod Depeche Mode - Violator Shadowy Men on a Shadowy Planet - Savvy Show Stoppers These are albums that I personally still listen to. often And many of these albums were picked to be some of the best albums ever in the MusicTalk draft thread. Now, 1990 is a bit thinner than 1995 (and I think that overall 1990 was a terrible year for music). Go another five years to 1985, and you've got Hunting High and Low, The Covenant the Sword and the Arm of the Lord, The First Born is Dead, Wide Awake in America... My point is that there is plenty of music from this year which I will remember, and continue to listen to. I know the question is being asked rhetorically, but it's a stupid question. Of course people will remember it. If you think there isn't any memorable music, you're not listening hard enough. |

I can't believe we keep having these "music today just isn't as good as music was when I was younger" threads, especially in a year with fantastic albums by artists like Spoon, The Decemberists, Ryan Adams, Franz Ferdinand, My Morning Jacket...

Laffy Taffy.

I can't believe The Bus tells us not to listen to the radio and then suggests we listen to 311. :jawdrop:
|
You all know that Gwen's "Hollaback Girl" will be hailed as the crowning achievement in this decade of music.

The reason you've probably never heard of Ryan Adams is cuz he puts out a new album like every 5 years.

People remember artist when they hit it big, like Oasis or Sublime, and they get a cult following, but i have never heard of any of these people. So why would they ever play them on the oldies station in the years to come.

Hey wendersfan, in the x-mas rush I still havent had a chance to pick up 29. How is it? |
In terms of mainstream music, probably that Kanye West song.

Other catchy, "memorable" tunes:
Beck - Girl Feist - Mushaboom Broken Social Scene - Shoreline Clap Your Hands Say Yeah - Upon This Tidal Wave of Young Blood, Yellow Country Teeth Wolf Parade - You Are a Runner and I Am My Father's Son Sufjan Stevens - Chicago Boards of Canada - Dayvan Cowboy ^ check some of those tunes out if you haven't heard em. |

Anyway, I agree 100% with The Bus and wendersfan. For those of us that actually put effort into finding good music, there's plenty from 2005 we'll be listening to in 10-15 years. For the rest, if you don't like music enough to track down albums and artists that you truly enjoy, why do you even care if what's listened today will be remembered? |
