Dylan has never had much of a voice. But, like Leonard Cohen is a master poet/song writer. That's his genius. And what is a song but poetry set to music.

A Hard Rain's Gonna Fall...(1963)
Oh, what'll you do now, my blue-eyed son?
Oh, what'll you do now, my darling young one?
I'm a-goin' back out 'fore the rain starts a-fallin',
I'll walk to the depths of the deepest black forest,
Where the people are many and their hands are all empty,
Where the pellets of poison are flooding their waters,
Where the home in the valley meets the damp dirty prison,
Where the executioner's face is always well hidden,
Where hunger is ugly, where souls are forgotten,
Where black is the color, where none is the number,
And I'll tell it and think it and speak it and breathe it,
And reflect it from the mountain so all souls can see it,
Then I'll stand on the ocean until I start sinkin',
But I'll know my song well before I start singin',
And it's a hard, it's a hard, it's a hard, it's a hard,
It's a hard rain's a-gonna fall.

I like them all. One builds on the other. Especially guitar music from Jeff O's Twangy guitar to Stevie Ray Vaughan. Can't find a decade that is better. Music sound quality has improved maybe, but there's something about a Dick Dale instrumental.

I think this decade is shaping up to be the greatest in music history. We've gotten great acts like Nickleback, My Chemical Romance, Fall Out Boy, Daughtery, Good Charlotte, Angels and Airwaves, New Found Glory, Avril Lavigne, Ashlee Simpson, Wakefield, Yellowcard, The Fray, Soulja Boy, Lindsay Lohan, Hillary Duff and Maroon Five. Truly 50 years now people will remember this halcyon age of music.

I won't . Mainly because I don't even know who the heck they are.

The only thing that would make that funnier is if you were actually serious.

This sad thing is how many youngsters today believe that

Meh, not a whole lot I can say about this. I was born in the 70's, started listening to music in the 80's and still listen to punk rock I grew up to, it changed the face of music for me and a lot of my generation. This emo crap will do the same, hell, we had goth, it was pretty fucking horrible, and there's people who still listen to Metal from that era... I know guys who think Quiet Riots "Metal Health" was one of the greatest music albums ever???

I think a lot of current music sucks, and the good artists are all on drugs and trying to die, but I'll take a kid who's got one eye covered in bangs while listening to "fall out boy" over some kid who's drugged out, listening to 21'st century disco, any day of the week.

:slappy: Get the fuck outta here. None of these acts will be on the air in five years. I'm surprised you left out "One Republic".

The Rolling Stones and The Who still fucking rock after four-plus decades, and The Eagles and Aerosmith for three and a half decades. Play a hit from either of these bands and even kids in middle school today will know the song or will have at least heard of it.
