People in this thread are realising they are oooold.
I’m starting to see grays in my mane, my mortality winks at me. 😭😂
Probably a lot of Portishead songs like Numb, Roads and Only You.
Can you really call something 30 years ago contemporary?
Yes, I just did.
Tiktok by Ke$ha. 😉
Darude - Sandstorm
Neverender by Justice and Tame Impala
that’s a sick animation video
Depends what you define as a “hit” or “standing the test of time”
In a literal sense, all of it will because it’s unlikely for music to just disappear in 2025
In terms of people still caring about it? Still most of it, nostalgia means what people listen to when they’re young determines at least a fraction of what they listen to when older.
In terms of still coming up in conversation, it’s more important to look at the artist than the individual tracks. Those who are truly talented and compose their own interesting tracks consistently over a good number of years, will still be talked about and their tracks will still be played. I think longevity is probably a big factor, if Pink Floyd only ever released dark side of the moon (I know PatGoD was their first) and then disappeared, I don’t think they would be remotely as influential.
Ram Ranch
For comparison, what are other songs which have previously stood the test of time?
Basically all the songs recommended on this thread lol
That buddy Holly one, I forget what it’s called
Something by Tame Impala? Maybe Yeezus and TLOP?
