Why do I listen to the oldies?

Assalamualaikum and haii :)

So a lot of my friends listen to trending songs. Well. For example :

Taylor Swift
Justin Bieber
K Poppers

Which is trending now... And I gotta be honest. I don't really enjoy today's songs.
Well maybe I sang some of those songs in real life but I sang it doesn't mean I like it.
For example, when Friday by Rebecca Black was famous and trending, I sang it like FRIDAY FRIDAY GOTTA GET DOWN ON FRIDAY.  but I don't like it.
I sang it because it was catchy and meaningless and easy to sing.

Just the word FRIDAY repeated like 100 of times. The lyrics was meaningless.
Okay. I will take all examples from the last paragraph of the lyrics.

Another example is by Justin Bieber.

All Around The World (which is trending like a couple of weeks ago)
You can remember the lyrics the FIRST time you heard it.

1) Justin Bieber - All Around The World.

"All around the world people want to be loved
All around the world, they're no different than us
All around the world
(people want to be loved)
All around the world
(they're no different than us)
All around the world
(people want to be loved)
All around the world
(they're no different than us)
All around the world"


The lyrics is repeated all over again.
No offence Beliebers. I love Justin Bieber. Peace.

Okay next is Beyonce Knowles.

2) Beyonce Knowles - Run The World

"Who are we? What we run? The world (who run this motha, yeah)
Who are we? What we run? The world (who run this motha, yeah)
Who are we? What do we run? We run the world! (who run this motha, yeah)
Who are we? What we run? We run the world
Who run the world? Girls"


The lyrics is always the same.

If you don't trust me, I have one more example.

3) Skrillex - Bangarang

"Shout to all my lost boys
Sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-shout to all my lost boys
Bangarang! (BASS!)

Shout to all my lost boys
Sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-shout to all my lost boys
We rowdy

Shout to all my lost boys
Sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-shout to all my lost boys
We rowdy

Shout to all my lost boys
Sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-shout to all my lost boys
We rowdy

Shout to all my lost boys
Sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-shout to all my lost boys
Bangarang! (BASS!)"


But not all of the today's song is meaningless. Well some of it.
Okay now it's time for the oldies.

1) Hotel California by The Eagles

"Last thing I remember, I was
Running for the door
I had to find the passage back to the place I was before
'Relax' said the night man,
'We are programmed to receive.
You can check out any time you like,
But you can never leave!"

Did you see the difference?

Okay maybe you can't see it yet. I will show you another example by the Legendary Michael Jackson

2) Thriller by Michael Jackson

"The foulest stench is in the air
The funk of forty thousand years
And grizzly ghouls from every tomb
Are closing in to seal your doom
And though you fight to stay alive
Your body starts to shiver
For no mere mortal can resist
The evil of the thriller"


And the last example is by

3) Bizarre Love Triangle by New Order

"I feel fine and I feel good
I'm feeling like I never should
Whenever I get this way
I just don't know what to say
Why can't we be ourselves like we were yesterday
I'm not sure what this could mean
I don't think you're what you seem
I do admit to myself
That if I hurt someone else
Then I'll never see just what we're meant to be

Every time I see you falling
I get down on my knees and pray
I'm waiting for that final moment
You say the words that I can't say"



Well, that is the reason why I listen to oldies. Their song is more cool and the melody is just... amazing and their lyrics are awesome...

As the saying goes "Old is gold. Gold is never old"

ASSALAMUALAIKUM ;)
