I don't know about the age thing so much. I guess the three bands I mentioned would definately be considered long stayers in the music biz but I just can't see Oasis knocking out hits songs 10, 15 or even 20 years from now.
I appreciate what your saying, but reaching 30 doesn't automatically exclude you from enjoying new music and bands.
Eminem, Mary Mary, Kandi, Destiny's Child, Wyclef, Robbie, Louise, Sonique, Anastasia, Spiller, Modjo, TLC, Pink.
In there is a selection of styles and every single one of them know who to treat fans. OK, maybe Eminem can be a bit suspect, but he's open and tell it like he see's it.
Please don't tar me with the "Old Fogey" brush just yet. I like my music to be either something I can turn up loud and break my voice sing to or somethng I can dance to or even better a combination of the both!
That said, when Oasis came along I really liked their first few releaes, it's not so much their music as there attitude to life and the fans that bigs me abiout them.
Now please excuse me, I parked my zimmer frame around here somewhere.
