Yes, definitely. So many one hit wonders I hear on the radio now.
I'm not much of a radio guy, just my computer, my CD's and my 80gb Zune

Music's evolution is not very linear. I mean, one would think that music is constantly improving or degrading, where rather it obviously does levels of both in various ways over time.

Since music does not degrade in quality, only changes in tone, a good song is a good song, no matter when it came out. Those who don't appreciate this are the people who listen to only new music, and are fooled by the fact a lot of it is obviously rehash.
