the beatles
What god would a cult centered around kissing worship?
The Greek god Herpes!
Most 80s power rock groups
most streamed 70s songs yesterday:
Creedence Clearwater Revival - Have You Ever Seen The Rain 1.26m
Fleetwood Mac - Dreams 1.25m
AC/DC - Highway to Hell 1.23m
Earth, Wind & Fire - September 1.10m
Queen - Don't Stop Me Now 1.00m

Queen - Bohemian Rhapsody 0.85m
Kiss - I Was Made For Lovin' You 0.82m
Eagles - Hotel California 0.77m
why is it always the same songs
because most people don't actually care about music as an art form, they just want to fit it
Ghost
The caveat is you have to not die yourself before it happens.
The Police
1.23 million people listened to ACDC yesterday. this is so sad...
Hell no
Glad you agree, thumbs up emoji
Every single band from 2010 onward
A boomer ain't listening to Black Midi
We might be listening to GVF though. There early stuff have that classic rock sound.
Nowadays they listen to Anon Babblecore funny retarded meme screaming albums,Trout Mask Replica,Dempa,Hyperpop,Nightcore,and "Velvet Pony".
Literally.
it does changes slightly over time, for example Bohemian Rhapsody being #8 now while it was #1 for years, one that really fell off is Sweet Home Alabama (used to be top 5, now out of the top 40)
Foghat, BTO, Guess Who
journey seems to get shat on a lot by young people
Basically any big name arena rock band not named Queen.
Guns 'n Roses
(Remember them?)
Not true.
my problem is it's usually 1 song per band, meaning people are only just listening to playlists curated by spotify and not thinking for themselves and listening to the albums. it's 70 rock music, it's supposed to be all about the albums
Kiss - I Was Made For Lovin' You 0.82m
their dico hit
nexty most popular would be Beth (their ballad) I think, and nothing much after that.
not really a "rock" band at all.
why is it always the same songs
because people don;t change what they like so a random list will be different whenever you look?
the heaviest metal band ever KISS in there with all that pop is pretty based
Keep It Simple Stupid is excellent and eternal advice for a myriad of tasks though especially writing music and picking up streetwalkers.
Hard luck Woman I'd think. And Detroit Rock City
Who are some other bands completely devoid of cross-generational appeal?
The Rolling Stones
Depeche Mode
Bush and all other 90's rock including grunge (though they seem to know who Cobain is)
better to ask who has cross-generational love:
The Beatles
Tears for Fears
Steely Dan
Chicago
Queen
Earth, Wind and Fire
Sade (mostly girls)
The Sundays (mostly girls)
Billy Joel
10cc
ABBA
Boston
t.IamaroundZoomsandAlphasallday
also: very cool how young zooms and the alphas easily embrace music of literally any generation.
completely opposite to Millennials
Elton John also has love
youtube.com
Yes, you're right - I should have added him.
there has NEVER been a more cross-generational band or artist in any genre in music than The Rolling Stones period.
literally 60 years of non-stop active popularity
Depeche Mode has been cross-generational as well, very popular for 40 years, very influential and regularly making new fans
you picked some strange examples and exposed yourself for not knowing anything
the guy listed chicago as having cross generational appeal so obviously he's not good in the head
take 6 months off the internet
Jimmy Hendrix, The Who
Yes
90% of all mainstream acts
boomers found out how to stream music and be content with hearing the same song over and over again years ago so not surprising
Most of these mentioned boomer bands and artists will be around in later generations moreso than the big artists of today. Too much saturation in today's big names.
Hotel California is going to be played till the end of time
nexty most popular would be Beth (their ballad) I think
no it's just #10 on Spotify:
I Was Made For Lovin' You 1.1b
Rock And Roll All Nite 517m
Detroit Rock City 264m
Heaven's On Fire 188m
Lick It Up 104m
they're becoming a one-hit wonder though, R&R All Nite has fallen off a bit
it was originally the live version of R&R All Nite from Alive that was the hit single. the studio version was not a big hit but that's the version with all the streams now
i noticed with these bands that their most played songs on Spotify tend to be their anthems and rockers because those are added to playlists more but it was often their power ballads that were their big chart hits back in the day
streaming numbers represent zoomers + millennials + a bit of genX, only 1% of streams are from boomers
boomers found out how to stream music
no they didn't
The achilles heel of KISS is that their music in no way matches their image/reputation, new listeners can't help but feel let down
KISS are just too loud and too heavy for today's kids to comprehend
the kids are telling their parents and grandparents to turn the music down now
we've come full circle
the elderly are cooler than the youth for the first time in documented history
Is the Destroyer version of "Detroit Rock City" with Concert drive intro and car crash outro?
Boomers don't really need to stream music We bought alot through the years and have physical media.
no, it's the remixed version from the compilation Double Platinum
