Has anyone else noticed this "return of the 80s" wave recently?
It started with artists like Gwen Stefani, Kelly Osbourne and Ashlee Simpson revamping their style and going for an "80s sound" on their sophomore (and debut) albums.
Then bands like Franz Ferdinand, The Bravery and The Killers started dominated award show performances.
There are other items too - the rubber bracelets and clothing styles - that are coming back, as well.
I have news for all of these people. I lived through the 80s, and it wasn't good.
Next thing you know, we'll have hair-metal bands and tight leather pants all over the airwaves.
There's a reason the 80s music wave died out - the music wasn't good.
Listen to it - how many chords do the Killers know? How many times can Franz Ferdinand repeat the same words over and over?
Where is the next Nirvana? If there was ever a time we needed some good music to take over - the time is now!
