That is true, I am guilty of that too. But my reason is legit: I don't like a lot of it, especially the more popular stuff. Not to say that I disrespect or hate the whole genre, but I swear if I hear Take On Me just one more time... 😁

If we could make song charts in a non-convoluted way, Take On Me would be high up in my overall. It's about as perfect as music can be. But different strokes for different folks I guess.

P.S. That is a great parody though

Nah, it's underrated as a whole. A lot of people don't take it seriously enough musically.

It is a bit overated. That's why I'd argue acts like Dam Funk, Com Truise and other acts brought those styles of the 80's and gave it modern production.

Also Animal Crossing isn't overrated. I agree.

Whenever new information was released for that new Pokemon game it just got worse and worse. I can't believe there's going to be paid DLC in a pokemon game that used to cost $40 for a complete and finished game. I think they just rushed it onto a console, and, it being the first time a main series game came to a console, they might have underestimated what it actually took to make it polished.

With DLC, for the most part Nintendo has been quite good with it. Pokemon was suspected for it since other games that have a lot of quality like Zelda Breath Of The Wild and Smash Bros Ultimate also have it. I also think that while certain things within Sword and Shield should have been ironed out, it unfortunately comes to business and moving from portables to hybrid consoles. Though I will say that thankfully we are at a time where they can update it to iron out some of it.

I also don't have a Switch. I had planned to get one when the new pokemon was released, but they completely screwed it up (in my eyes) so I ended up not buying one.

Ahh. We could have a group of people from this site to get rare fish and stuff. Though I do understand the Pokemon thing even though I'm not the craziest fan of Pokemon to begin with. Though I do want to get the remake of Mystery Dungeon on Switch.

TBH both of their albums would be good for a party. I just can't believe this trend has been going on for this long.

As soon as I heard Blinding Lights, which really is a great song, I immediately thought of this.

Come on Chief. Join the Animal Crossing cult.

While there are some tracks off the recent Weeknd album, that do sound like 80's inspired like In Your Eyes. It sounds more like a modern album. Hell Too Late sounds more late 2000's early 2010's with it's 2 step drum patterns and ambience. But that's just me. Also After Hours is such a good album.

Still not like other girls I see 😉

I enjoyed Duas latest even if I think it's being overpraised, thought I see more late 70s disco\turn of the millennium pop-house influence with minimal 80s touches thrown in . I agree though that in general we need to let this 80s fetish fuck ing die already, it's been going on for a decade and a half and it's straight-jacketinng modern pop culture.

Haven't heard the Weeknds latest

What kind of music would you rather The Weeknd and Dua Lipa make? Are you a bigger fan of their other work?
