I think we are the "microwave" generation where everything has to be done right here and right now and of course usually redone, overdone or simply regurgitated...  |

Our technology is surging forward by leaps and bounds, but our music, entertainment and fashion taste is definitely retro. I think maybe we're just plain scared about entering new territory, sort of like putting the brakes on the direction that technology is taking us. Also, this same technology is able to re-master a lot of old movies, TV shows, record albums, so we're always exposed to those things and are affected by it. This wasn't always true in the past. Old records were just thrown away, and old films and the soundtracks just sounded--old, outdated. Part of it might also be a nostalgic longing for a "simpler" time because things seem to be moving forward so fast and we're having a hard time adapting. Or I could be just plain wrong about all of those things, lol.  |

I think Canoe has a very good point. Things are becoming very rapid and I think we are becoming nostalgic for a time when we could enjoy those forms of entertainment more be they old songs, movies, clothes, etc. We barely have time to live anymore... |

I think it takes time for nostalgia (sp?) to build up before you can really define a decade by a particular fashion trend, type of music or invention, etc. Who knows maybe in 20 years we will be the borrowers lol.  |

lol...My neighbor just busted out his record albums. We were listening to Jim Groce in his garage. Let's see, we have satellite radio, dvd burners, cell phones that take pics, digital cameras, illegal music downloading. I am 35 years old and had way more fun in the 70's.  |

Ummm it can be siad that the majority of rock music in the world created in the nineties was brought about by a rapidly growing world wide recession. Young white males were feeling like there was no hope. Banded together as the slacker generation they created a type of music namely Grunge. Grunge while having atrributes that are mirrored by 60's and 80's band reflected the times that they were in. Rather than wearing hyper colour or fluoro coloured clothing like in the 80's people were more likely to wear flannel and torn shorts than the previous years wear a good pair of jeans was sufficiant.  |
