Sloop John B - Beach Boys Cover (Live From The Bus)

[@bobhebbard5688]

I'm 65 yrs young, and I can't tell you how much it moves me to see these young people embracing my generations music. You guys are awesome!!!!!!

[@Luna_and_Miles]

Ain't it the truth? I'm 60. I know what you mean. Youngsters enjoying this music warms my heart and gives me hope for future generations appreciating this great music.

[@bigteddy66]

Absolutely. I love it.

[@Tunz909]

It's really a vindication from our generation, I'm 69...these young folks today I guess have no choice to embrace our music, cause there is nothing for them to embrace.

[@xxnonstopdancingxx]

@@Tunz909 what songs did you write? Or did you own the record label? Or are you just a consumer? Whilst I support “our generation” to live out our lives with utter delusion please use what is left of your mind to really think about what we experienced. Yep it was great at the point of experience but it was pure post war consumerism. The purity of the art didn’t exist the way people believe and that’s fine. Talent exists throughout all generations and their output is a reflection of the limits of creativity that are exerted on them through things like house prices, cost of education, full employment, economic policies, foreign policy etc etc etc Vindication?? Of what? “We” are better then “them”? Don’t make me cringe. “We” are the single most self serving, arrogant, bunch of know it all, resource raping generation of all time. Happy Monday 👍🏾
