even years ago, had a buddy dating a girl younger and he was playing for her a personally curated playlist of all oldies. she didn't like the playlist, she didn't know any of the songs. he was incredulous and asked how she didn't know any of the songs, and she replied, well i wasn't around then, and then more incredulously he was like, ya, neither was I! -- these are just the classic songs!
like, she must've never listened to the radio. it's just crazy and unexpected, that not only does the music changed, but the media by which is passed down has changed, to the degree that people don't know righteous melody or whatever. i guess i assumed the post-war consensus and the subsequent development of "pop culture" would be a giant text for everybody, but really i was just living in the memories of boomers, their nostalgia becoming my nostalgia, and fascinating that that this will end with me I guess.
