the magic, innocent childhood years; a time of all-american values and rebellious teenagers; hopelessly corny in an endearing way; yet, paradoxically, when music as we know it was invented; and when the future as we know it was invented.
that's not how the 80s really were, obviously. but it seems like the 50s are now, finally, too far gone to evoke those qualities for most "creative" / pop culture-influencing people. so over the past 5-10 years (at least) there's been a cultural shift in terms of what the good old days are perceived to be.
i thought a ton of people had to have written about this, but when i googled it, this was the first thing that came up. can't remember it being brought up directly here. the closest i can think of is this thread which never directly touches on it.
just curious about the extent to which this is a shared feeling.
