I don't know how somebody can claim that his generation's music is objective superior

[conuly]

when he grew up in the 1970s. Does this man not remember what his grandparents and parents said about that generation of music? It's almost like the problem with today's music is that he's listening with old ears, rather than that the music itself is bad.

Also, if you're going to assert that every song that hit the top 40 in a particular decade aged well, well, first of all, I'm going to want you to name them because otherwise I don't believe you checked, but also, what about the bajillion songs that didn't make it big? Sturgeon's law applied in the 1970s just as much as it does today.
