… hmm, I’m not just late on the topic, I am pretty old too, I think. Born in 1977, the year „Heroes“ was released.
David Bowie of course … one of the best. Rest in peace. #davidbowie
@trendskater@Kitty@The_KamikaZEN I am also very late to this topic of #MyGenerationMusic. It's a bit weird seeing how young all you folks are! Regardless, my pick would be Led Zeppelin's debut album from 1969. Why? Because although life is full of good times and bad times, I am often dazed and confused while sitting on the black mountain side. I feel like there's a communication breakdown but I can't quit you baby! How many more times must I say your time is gonna come?
We're joining today's #TuneTuesday as Thunderbird! Today's theme is #MyGenerationMusic and we're going back 20 years (!) to 2004 when Thunderbird 1.0 came into the world. To us, this song still sounds as good as it did two decades ago!
What was playing when you made your debut? (Fellow open source project socials, we're looking at you!)
Going to join in on #TuneTuesday for once, and I noticed most people are posting #mygenerationmusic themed tracks! I may be a big 90s grunge fan, but the early 2000s has really good stuff too!
I have to say that todays #TuneTuesday theme of #MyGenerationMusic (songs from the year you were born or close to the year) from @The_KamikaZEN are simply brilliant. Some absolutely epic tunes.
And having googled songs from my year, I have to say that my year has some BANGERS!
Not a lot of the music from that age is really to my taste, but I found out that Pet Shop Boys debuted the year I was born, and this song was released as a single right after my birth.
Pet Shop Boys - Opportunities (Let's Make Lots of Money)
Gary Numan released Telekon, my favorite of his records, in 1980. It was the first vinyl I bought as a teen in the 90s. Hearing this intro track and the album that followed was mindblowing. Definitely listen to this whole record if you get a chance.
Here's "This Wreckage", the first song on Telekon, one of the best album opening tracks EVER:
@VampiresAndRobots hell yes!! I didn't pay much more than that either haha - just a couple bucks if I remember right. What DEALS. This album is SO special.
Because of the many songs that released that year, and many of which are popular and cool pop songs and some pop songs I don’t really vibe with that much… these are the songs I recognize well (and discovered like a decade + few years further in my existence) and love enough to feature in here.
In terms of K-pop… well… it’s still like around late 1st to early 2nd gen I think so I couldn’t recommend or relate to much songs in that era. :((
