    Hey, people in this thread!

    If you are still listening to the same song you listened to in High School
    then that is NOT a song you HAVE NOT listened to SINCE high school.

    Your reading comprehension skills suck!

    What does the comic state? It states: “songs you haven’t listened to since High School”.

    If you’re still listening to those songs then those songs don’t apply. Get it?

    This is a dumb picture… there is nothing wrong with old songs… they were real, unlike the A.I. generated trash of today

    There’s stuff in my playlist that probably wouldn’t make it into my favourites today, if it weren’t for the nostalgia. Like, they’re alright songs, but they wouldn’t knock me off my feet today.

    Nah, I had great taste, I still listen to Pink Floyd. The only thing that has happened over the ages is I’ve become more open to different kinds of music, where I was more closed minded when young.

      I suppose the thing would be songs that you listened to back then but stopped listening to. So in your case, pink floyd wouldn’t count because it has staying power and you kept listening, rather than “you haven’t listened to since high school”.

      If you randomly pick some billboard hits of the time that you haven’t heard in a while, you realize why no one has played it in a while despite you listening when it was new.

      Music of the (insert decade) is generally better than music of today largely by virtue of having a decade to choose from, versus picking over the most recent year or two

        That’s a really good point. The most of the crap that was played in the 80s didn’t make it into the “top 100 songs of the 80s” list, hence what’s left over today is not the crap.

    Let’s see… Metallica, Testament, Saxon, Black Sabbath, Blind Guardian, the offspring, bloodhound gang, Eminem, Dynamite Deluxe, die absoluten Beginner… Those are the ones that immediately come to mind. I’m fine with that. Still listen to a lot of those today.

      yeah, but you probably kept listening to those. if you hadn’t listened to it “since high school” there would likely be some reason you stopped

        Indeed… you have a point here.

        There were a ton of spoiled songs popular when I was in high school but no, I never listened to them and I surely wouldn’t have allowed them into my fridge.
