Where's the fun gone?

[analogue]

Today i was listen to the songs Get Down On It by Kool and The Gang, Let's Groove Tonight by Earth, Wind and Fire and Off The Wall by Michael Jackson and i was thinking that there's hardly anything fun about todays music from a lyrical point of view. I really wish that someone would come out with a new song with just simple fun lyrics

they are too busy following the outline of a crappy content hit, that will go to number one

Maybe not in the mainstream, but there are plenty of lesser known acts that produce fun songs.

Being cheery & happy isn't "hard" or "keepin' it real". Don't U know that already?

everything goes into circles. i mean it will come back again. always a follow the leader mentality.

I miss that music too!!
though I wasn't born when some of those songs came out.
My sister may laugh when I'm listening to some of that music but at least I'm having fun when I listen too music!!!

Huey Lewis & The News always made fun songs. The B-52s are pretty good also.

Depends on what you consider to be "fun" music. It hasn't gone anywhere. You may not relate to it, but others can.

Well I think 'Alphabeat' make music that is fun, I don't think there is any other why of desribing their music lol



It is out there but not in the way that disco and such used to make fun music.
It's just an example but I think fun music is making a comeback, or maybe that's just me hoping for the best lol

I know what you mean....I don't think I was born when any of this came out, but I love it! We just need more classic fun songs that can stand the test of time :yes:

Maybe people were happier back then, before all of the jaded, cynical grunge era and gangsta thugs of the 1990s changed all of that. You won't see people making videos like Wham!'s "Wake Me Up Before You Go Go" or goofy Phil Collins & B-52s videos today.
