Just being released in the 80's doesn't automatically make it good.

As your example highlights perfectly!

Maybe post positive comments on the threads that interest you and not knock down the ones that don't, as I said, opinions vary, it's a public forum so anyone can comment, just avoid putting threads down for the sake of making a comment and they may not die as quick.

Fair point, though it was intended more as joke, than knock down. Probably could have been improved by suggesting alternatives...

She's only 6, she's good at making the mess, not so good at putting things back though.

that's quite a wide swathe of music you would wipe out there! Would you like to narrow it down to just what appeared in the charts?
