So no actually it isn't 10/20 posts, maybe take your own advice young man. Got a little too excited there.
no, genre is irrelevant. It's all complaints about when music peaked in some way or other, it's tiresome. And no, I'm really not interested in reading those threads thoroughly

That opinion is kinda true though.
Maybe without the 80s.

If what we're taking in count is innovation, popularity, auteurism, etc

There might have been new concepts, ideas, genres in the 80s, 90s and today, but none of that can match the sheer power and broadness of what was happening in the 60s or 70s

It applies to the audience as well. Music is no longer a social force to be reckoned with, it's just another way to pass your time.

Meh, for me it all began going downhill when Hrugghh-HuH, the greatest ever band to play a live cave, switched to playing on dinosaur bones. Just wasn't the same after that.

George Michael said something like this too.
