mainstream,yes.thats why i listen to lot of old music myself, but there is acctualy quite alot of good music made recently. tsi just really hard to find
The hippies listened to Acid music. Unlike the '50s, you can barely even hear the words and it has no real beat. And yeah, hippies had fun alright while they died in the process of doing drugs!
Saturday Night.. You had to be there in 1957. You have seen nothing. Till you have seen, a floor ready to collasp,under thunder of kids, doing their thing. 1957..
This was always the first song they played at the "Sock Hops" I went to in school. They were called that because they were held in the school gym where you couldn't wear shoes(because it would scuff the floor)so everyone danced in their socks.
I luv tae go tae Rockabilly-Partys, where they play the great songs of that beautiful era an' the bonnie lassies dance wi' their pretty Petticoats wi' the fellows.
At least I had nae the joy tae live in that gracious time.

Let's not romanticize the 50's, as it was a time when many African-Americans couldn't even get served in a diner, or vote, let alone become President, when women faced sexism that dwarfs the considerable amount still with us today, when gays had to cower in the shadows or face becoming total outcasts... and on an on... the 2009 United States is a much more moral place than the 1950's United States was. Bigotry is IMMORAL, and this was a much more bigoted country then than it is now.
Sarah Palin was called every heinous invective one could think of last year - and almost all of it came from the self-described 'tolerant' liberally-minded among us. Feminist pundits were vicious towards her, several telling her she should 'stay in Alaska and take care of her kids'....it looks like the 'sexism' of the 1950's didn't go away; it simply changed political stripes.
Very clearly, part of it had to do with 'politically correct' sexism. Feminist pundits, like Sally Quinn of the Washington Post and others, had the audacity to question why Palin was running for office when she had several children, including an infant, at home.
Do you think ANY pundit would have asked that question of, say, any liberal female politician? Of course not!
Sarah Palin was mocked because liberals - who profess 'tolerance' - are among the most intolerant of all.
No, she was mocked for being absolutely imbecilic. By, I might add, members of the Republican party. Stop trying to stick up for her, she's an idiot. Start over..
If the democratic party had put forward someone unequivocally stupid and unqualified I would not have held back for a second to outline how absurd it would be.
She was mocked - because that's reflective of the hearts of the people who mocked her.
Sarah Palin did nothing wrong.
If one didn't like her, they didn't have to vote for her - it's as simple as that. But NOTHING she did warranted the hatred that poured out of people's minds and hearts....
...and, sadly, we live in a society that features, and virtually salutes, mean-spirited invective and hatred.
She's bright enough to be elected governor of a state. She enjoys one of the highest approval ratings of ANY elected official in the nation. She attracts not only thousands of supporters at every public appearance - but also the media, who give her NOTHING but disdain, but continue to follow her every move......and then, of course, there's someone like yourself - who not only mocks her but resorts to the name-calling and vulgarity that one has come to expect from liberals.
Haha, that's adorable. You have unequivocally the dumbest politician to EVER be in the spotlight, and instead of being ashamed and trying to move on, you have a selection of knuckle-dragging right-wingers trying to stand up for her because she brought her retard baby to term.
"Classic" I love this music. It is not from my generation but my parents. I love the stories of my mom in a classic poodle skirt, saddle shoes and sweater....
Well, I wasn't a mom, but I also wore the poodle skirt, saddle shoes, adler socks and mohair sweater. The 50's and 60's were the best, and I wish the music and the attitude were back. Hate hip hop!!!
man these guys got an amazing sense of rock-n-roll.the whole feel of the music just gets your ass shaking.if this dont make your feet move,check your pulse,you might be dead.lol.
"Away with this devil music," they'd say back in the day.
"Away with this devil music," they'd say about Lady GaGa nowadays. But at least the former is a ton better than GaGa's Poker Face or Disco Stick song, whatever it's called.
Is it just me or do their heads on the album cover mismatch their heads?
we would dance to this at the High School dance back in the day. we had fun just being at the dance looking for the girl you liked and the cool cars crusing by with the music of day.we didn't worry about no drive by shootings or people high on drugs.the most trouble we got into was smoking a cigarette on the school grounds and even that was big trouble.we will never see those days again ever I' m just glad I was able to live during that time as a teenager.we had our burger joint after school.
Its Swedish 'svensk' means swedish in swedish, but I don't know apparently It says something about a 'star' and 'december' (chrismast tree I asume) probably the guy did something funny in december I don't know; but I don't think it has anything to do with this video since:
