It doesn't matter how old you are to like a certain type of music. I know 15 year olds who love Metallica and Iron Maiden (average age around 50), and loads of young people are rediscovering the Beatles (Paul McCartney is 67 and Ringo Starr is 70), and Rolling Stones are in their 60s. Madonna is 52 this year, and Michael Jackson was 50. I have no difficulty in enjoying a range of music from opera to pop, from heavy metal to soft rock, from classical to r&B, from reggae to rap. Great music never dies, it has longevity and will always find new audiences in the future.

Music has no boundaries, and age is certainly not a consideration.

Thank you Angus.
That is what I feel.

yes exactly, I find it funny how some younger people think it's ok to say us oldies can't listen to younger music but I doubt they'd pleased if they were told that they couldn't listen to Madonna etc. cos they were too young
