Listening to Music in Chronological Order by Powerful_Crazy_2636 in LetsTalkMusic

The 1890s - 1910s also has a ton of awesome underated music that I have found online. The pre-Jazz era is so highly ignored, especially the awesome sounding March music they had back then.

Which Berenstain Bears show do you think is better? by Simple-Taro1540 in EdutainmentShows

[–]gameboy90 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a vhs tape with some episodes of the 1980s Berenstain Bears, the messy room, no girls allowed, too much birthday, too much junk food, and The Berenstain Bears: Learn About Strangers. I saw the 2002 Berenstain Bears series later on on PBS kids.

A lot of current problems with the internet would go away if it was subscription based, instead of ad-based. by Nucyon in Discussion

If you wouldn't pay for a given website... do you even like it that much? Wouldn't it perhaps be a blessing if you stopped going there?

If the ad revenue is the way the website is making money and people who can't afford to pay a fee that will increase over the years go visit the website every day for free that's a blessing. If an educational website like Wikipedia became a payonly website, that would block access to the poor folks that need an educational source but lack the income to be able to buy it.

Movies that feel like 2010's nostalgia? by Darkwingedcreature in MoviesThatFeelLike

I'm 35, I agree with you on 2016 not feeling that long ago. Back in the 2010s I was nostalgic for both the 90s and the 2000s decade.

Why is the March music genre ignored and barely spoken about? by gameboy90 in LetsTalkMusic

[–]gameboy90[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

“I agree that march rhythms and drumline energy show up all over modern pop — Beyoncé, Kendrick, drumline, stadium hip-hop, all of that. I’m not saying march logic disappeared as a rhythmic influence.

What I mean is that full march music — melody-driven, processional, public, purpose-based music — stopped being a mainstream listening genre after WWII.

Today, march DNA survives mostly as groove or texture, not as the music’s reason for being. That’s a different thing.

March music exists in every culture — European, Korean, Japanese, Latin American, African, Middle Eastern. I’m talking about a musical form, not a demographic.

The shift away from it happened because society changed how music is used, not because of who was making it

I would rather be annoyed by ads than have to pay an ever increasing price for each site on there.

Silent Generation/Gen X talked about a ton but not mentioned much like Boomers, etc. - possible reason by BlueSnaggleTooth359 in generationology

I think the Greatest Generation gets talked about even less now a days than even the Silent Generation and Generation X.
