What will you listen to when you get old?

Run_to_da_hills

What will the majority of us listen to when we end up old? Most of us grew up in the 70ies & 80ies and would be familiar with all the rock and metal classics and wouldnt have a clue or probably or an interest in barock composers like Mozart, Bach, Handel and Beethoven etc. My ma and alott of other old folks would tune into Lyric FM for soothing music. I could imagine the following remix from Metallica being played in an old folks home when we reach that age. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H7csvgL-G3E

Anyone got any other "unusual" remixes.

Hopefully listening to what I listen to now, but may become a fan of the new wave of zoomoto

Classical composers, I'm afraid!

I listen to a vast range of stuff now, and I only hope that it will get even vaster.

My mistake, spelling wrong (although correct in German) These guys I listed are also known as Baroque composers. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baroque_music

Maybe Lyric FM will dedicate several hours towards rock and metal fans with remixes of well known tracks preformed by the James Last Orchestra

The way things are going, I imagine the kids of tomorrow will be listening to morse code or something, so even just listening to real music would make you 'old-fashioned'.

When I was growing up my folks would say turn down that "noise" in your room. That "noise" would be the Ac/Dc, The Who, Stones or Led Zeppelin now I am their age and "Noise" to me would be Slayer, Cannibal Corpse and Machine Head. God knows what "noise" will be for the next generation :eek:

Do you mean Mozart and Beethoven are baroque as well as classical composers? And interestingly enough, 'barock' would have been a correct English spelling in the baroque era.

I really don't think there's much further ground to be covered in terms of heaviness, I mean once you start taking noise rock and stuff into account, things can't get much more loud and distorted. Be interesting to see what shocks us in twenty or thirty years' time.

I'd hope to still be listening to what I listen to now and what I've been listening to for the past 15 or so years.
I've a good example set to me by my mam - she goes to more gigs than me and goes to a lot of them with my younger brother. This summer she's going to, amongst others - Prince, Leonard Cohen, Eric Clapton & Joe Satriani! Would be going to a hell of a lot more if she could afford them all..

you will age, your taste will soften, and you will appreciate the quiter forms of music, just as you acquire a taste for beige comfortable clothes. It's inevitable. You will stay rocking until 50s I reckon then you'll mellow.
