pop through out history has crossed over where it shouldn't. the music was the way it was. as for the 70's music, its the reason why things have been so screwed in music for so long. you can't just buy a guitar and enjoy playing..no the man at the store " when you get famous don't forget where you came from" can't walk around town in work clothes on the way to the dry cleaner( with long ass hair) and get respect without some teenage hippy/druggy thinking "o rad man" " we got this shit going down where we do nothing and get no jobs,but we got weed, wanna come?" like fucking what bro. this music thing of the 70's should have been burned in the time of witches. people just went stupid. if the 80's where today yes it still works. it never went out. we are still repeating the same styles since the 70's and 60's. bands trying to be the beatles, or dylan, or some stupid shit. the music scene has been repeated every decade. it will always be popular because it happened.
