this is pure 5 star jackson. 1981 originally (then 'sampled for 'white lines'), performance is obv from much later. I saw them at swg3 a few years back and they were heavy chonking.

It doesn't sound dated at all.

 

Remember this cartoon within the Simpsons with the parody of 70s music?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pl3sgKj6oTQ

 

The Simpsons was the greatest

It absolutely does... If I had never heard of Lou Reed and you played me that track, I'd know inside 30 seconds the timeframe down to two years it was recorded... It's as dated as everything you claim is dated

 

No it isn't.

 

Yeah it is, you just don't think so because you like it

 

Nah seriously it just isn't. Note that when the Simpsons do a bit with pastiche music instantly meant to evoke The 70s it sounds absolutely nothing like Transformer

It sounds nothing like 100s of artists and albums released during that time... Transformer is an obvious early-mid seventies recording

 

Just because you can deduce when something was recorded doesn't make it dated in that sense of the word. If I heard the Feelies for the first time i'd be able to take a good guess that Crazy Rhythms came out sometime between 79-82 but calling it 'dated' would be bizarre.

 

It's all "dated" to somebody ... The point is that it's a ridiculous criteria for something being great art or not ... Transformer is no less dated than anything else recorded 40 years ago ... How dated it is to an individual is entirely dependent upon that individual's particular prejudices, age, etc ... In other words, you are a severe, insatiable roaster and I hate you

 

Here's some dated stuff that is pretty awesome (edit: 1967) -

more from my favorite singer of all time (Mohammed Rafi). unfortunately, these are much better if you understand the lyrics.. back in those days, Bollywood lyrics were written by urdu poets (in this case, Majrooh Sultanpuri. marked contrast from the shitty pop-crap that Indian film music has mostly become). still awesome either way, though. Rafi's voice was amazing.

1962:

1966 (iirc) - "Baharon Phool Barsao." Rafi again.

Loaded loves this one.

Can we get one thread without that stuff?

 

What stuff, music videos....No this is the thread for music videos.

 

You don't like loaded, he doesn't like you... This thread has eclipsed 200 pages free from discussions about race, muslims, grooming, bombing, terrorists, etc and it's all the better for it ... You've got a dozen threads you can use for that stuff

 

<iframe width="640" height="360" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/ymLJz3N8ayI?feature=player_detailpage" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen=""></iframe>I don't need a faith that's blind
Where death and hate bring me peace of mind
With views that are stuck deep in the seventh century
So much sand in your eyes to blind to see
The venom that you leaders preach
Is the path to your own destruction
Your own demise
You might say that I don't understand but your disgust for me is what I realize:elmo:
