Sorry if this has been said but I think on top of the way we consume music affecting how quickly we get it, we also have much more choice now. For example, when I was younger (I'm only 19 but) the only way I could listen to the songs I liked was by buying the CD (namely Now That's What I Call Music), requesting it on a music channel or hoping to catch it on the radio. I didn't get broadband until 2007/2008 or so, so before then I couldn't just look up a song. However, this also meant I generally only knew about songs from the radio, TV or that a friend would tell me about. Now with Spotify (granted I don't have it but in general), you are not 'forced' to only know the biggest stars, you can listen to a random indie artist from the middle of nowhere in Australia with ten true fans who happened to upload their music to Spotify, and so completely ignore all of the big acts. Did you followed music and bought cds when you were 8? Although I didn't start following the charts until 2014, I have been buying music since 2005/2006 (the Black Eyed Peas were the first/one of the first bands I 'stanned' for, and that started just before/after Monkey Business came out). I can remember the struggle of trying to find somewhere to watch the music video for Don't Lie. I used to buy CD singles which had the music videos on them, but I could never find the one for Don't Lie (I remember getting the CDs for Let's Get It Started, My Humps, Pump It and Where Is The Love - I also had DVD Behind The Bridge to Elephunk). I remember the relief the day we got Real Player and how great if felt to be able to watch the Don't Lie video online  |

The only real differences in options bewteen now and 11 years ago was streaming. 11 years ago in 2006, although stores were rapidly shrinking, they still existed and as today, CD sales were on rapid decline. Even today if you look hard enough, physical CDs are stll available for purchase. The format of consumption in 2006 showing the biggest growth was digital downloads, on basically many of the same services as today. Streaming was available 10+ years ago to a degree. I was using Napster in college in the first half of the 00s. I know it has really developed since then, but my point is more that even that type of listening (along with CDs, mp3s, radio, etc) was available 10-15 years ago. Posting on this site 10+ years ago, I remember discussions about illegal downloads, iTunes and physical CDs Not a lot of streaming services In any case we are both saying the same thing. Music consumption choices have not changed much in 10 years. Which "choice" is more dominant has certainly changed but for the most part, the choices haven't |

Over a year ago I was surprised to see that there were nostalgia pieces about about High School Musical and Hannah Montana already and then I realized they are 10 years old! Lea Michelle recently tweeted about Glee premiering 8 years ago, remember how that show dominated the charts every single episode lol. Time flies so fast To further the previous discussion: HSM was universally ridiculed 10 years ago, and "old people" were always trashing it and saying how much better the Mickey Mouse Club was. Now current young adults praise it and talk about how much better everything was 10 years ago. People in a couple years will be talking about the good old days of Bieber and Drake and complaining about whatever the current stars are. I think we all realize that there is some degree of 'nostalgia' to music (and other pop culture items) and thus we like what we grew up on, but that doesn't mean there can't be an objective element, too. I think there is a difference in "favorite" and "best," for one. And while it depends what you want out of music and I don't judge anyone for what they like, I think we can at least recognize some songs are more complex musically and/or lyrically, some songs have a more original sound/production, some songs make more of a statement (and I use "statement" very broadly), etc. As an example, some people might prefer Beyonce's debut album and name it a "favorite," but many of them could still recognize that Lemonade is a better album in terms of its production, its message, its complexity, and so on. To me that's a parallel to comparing decades of music and other topics. |

^OMG. YouTube and iTunes numbers are terrible for this week. LWYMMD will remain at #1, but with ~45k points. The week I'm The One debuted at #1, HUMBLE. fell to #4 with 46,800 and SOY was #5 with 44,500.

And to think it started with over 100k points a couple weeks ago. I guess the lukewarm reception caught up to the song a bit earlier than I thought. |

^Yeah. Assuming it only had the YouTube video, it would need 16 million weekly views in the U.S. or so to get around 100 points, which is about what's needed to be in the top 50. It has just over 4 million so it won't get there, even assuming all the views are from the U.S., by the end of Thursday's streaming tracking week. We'll see about next week.

I wouldn't call it free falling if it's still going to literally be higher than every other song with that total. That seems to me more like that it's normalizing around the same area as every other top hit of right now, which is a good thing. While the song is not going to be a juggernaut in points, that doesn't mean it's not connecting with people. Instead, the point total at week three shows us that the song is connecting with people, but not at a level any higher than other hits out right now. |

We also saw the Latin movement starting by then with Ricky Martin and others. I'm not sure how you can get much more diverse. |

Streaming favors hip hop so that tends to dominate but you also have everything else including Latin |

Are there really people praising HSM and and finding artistic merit in it? Of course people who watched it as kids might look back and feel nostalgic, just as they might about a certain chocolate they used to eat or their trips to the video rental shop. That's not a comparison of artistic merit. |

Not all those genres may still be in the mainstream, but my point is I think that people listen to way more stuff OUT of the mainstream these days, which leads to an overall wider variety of music being listened to unlike 20 years ago where it was much harder to find out about music that wasn't already big. |

Were the old folks during the 80s complaining about the music and stating how The Beatles and Elvis were so much better? Just wondering if this only has happened since I was born

I'm genuinely shocked that all the One Direction boys were able to notch Top 20 hits (well, almost all, sorry Luis). And with Niall nearing the Top 10, four of the boys would have a Top 10 hit under their belts. That's unheard of from a boy band, most only have one member that has a successful solo career (Micheal Jackson, Justin Timberlake). I think the only other boy band to have multiple members get solo hits was The Beatles, but I'm pretty sure it was just McCartney and Lennon. Correct me if I'm wrong.

^ Yes, the old folks in the 80s hated the 80s music and lamented that the 60s stuff was better. It happens every generation.
You didn't have Youtube comments sections, but if you read Billboard letter section, or worked in radio (as I did), it was a frequent complaint.
Teens that grew up in the 70s also often hated 80s music.
