I wish singers would make music like they did back then. I always have oldies on.

Me too. I love all those old shows as well, like Milton Berle and Ed Sullivan.

Oldies is a really general term . My kids think anything made before 98 is an oldie performed by "Old Guys". They do watch the old TV shows though.
I listen to an oldies station all the time . Rap is not my thing at all. |

That's a very good point. I start to giggle when people think '80s music is 'old'. I think 60s, definitely, 70s...I guess 70s is probably thrown into this category now. But I guess it also depends on what type of music from the '70s. Could you imagine the Sex Pistols being classified as 'oldies'?

There is only one good "oldies" station where I live...KEARTH. They have Beatles Sunday mornings where they play the Beatles and pepper little stories in between songs. Motown Mondays are my fave...
I would say I consider the 70's and back as oldies. __________________

Motown! I love motown. For me, the 60's are oldies. 70's not so much.

I guess I rope the 70's in because the radio does.
It's a good thing too because otherwise some people wouldn't be exposed to that lovely decade. __________________

I'm listening to Paul Anka.
Yeah, a lot of radio stations classify '70s as oldies. But, when you think about it, a lot of '70s music isn't quite as 'easy listening' as most of the more popular '60s music was so I guess it would be classified as, perhaps, 'classic' but not 'oldies'. I think I should just go to bed. __________________

Very true. There is a radio station that plays "classic" rock...
Yet, they play The Cars, which, I know they formed in the last 70's but had most of their success in the 80's. __________________

That's it! 70's are not Oldies but Classics.
