The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

Cool visual indeed.

What's The Hot 100?
Does it involve modern beat combo's?

So I know every name from Elvis Presley to Mariah Carey. After that I don’t know one name.
I’m trying to figure out if that means anything. Either that good music ended in 1989, or I stopped listening to new music in 1990.

My thoughts:
- The Beatles were a flash in the '60s pan. (I've never been much of a fan)
- The 80s had few "new to the top 100" artists.
- Love how Brenda Lee and Mariah Carey get the annual Top 100 even up until now with their Christmas songs.
- Shows how some artists really had a long career at the top, like Elton John and a number of country artists like Tim McGraw and Keith Urban.

Showing your age
The Beatles fundamentally changed the face of rock and roll for the next fifty years, more so than any band in history.

This.
What other band has had as much influence? Stones, perhaps, but they were not the revolution that the Beatles were.

Not at all a Beatles fan, but the more I learn about music the more it appears to be true.

Please love yourself.

Super Bowl.
What's "Super Bowl?"
I can't even tell you who played! I also didn't even see the halftime show. But I am forced against my will to know that he did it.

Don't forget that they also pioneered the clever use of slightly mis-spelling English words as part of the band name, a practice that was adapted by 'Kool and the Gang' and eventually culminated in the the unthinkably clever The Weeknd, who is far more important than those Liverpool lads could ever hope to be.

Where's your Beethoven, then, Moonlight-Sonata boy?

The other day I heard a song on the radio from Soundgarden. I excitedly mention to my wife "That's from their new album, I've been meaning to get that !" That "new album" was released in 1996...
Think about it this way, we are now as far away timewise from the best days of Sting and the Police as Sting and the Police were from Glenn Miller...
