It has happened, music of my youth sounds like "oldies" to me - pRICE cUBE - 05-27-2022
I bristled when the music of my youth started being played on the Oldies station a few years ago. Sure, the songs were old and older but certainly not "oldies". Then it happened recently listening to these songs and they do have that "oldies" quality to it. Crap!

When I first started in radio in 1964, the Oldies Show featured tunes from the previous year and stretched maybe 8 years into the past. Presently, Oldies are from the beginning of the Rock Era up til more years back than they used to be.
So, yes, you are old.

What songs?

Yeah, I can think of some songs from the 60s-70s that would sound like oldies, and a bunch that would not.
Which songs are you referring to?

Jeepers, those are ALL way too new to legitimately be called "oldies"....
"Oldies" must have been officially released on, or before April 30, 1975, to qualify for the genre.

I heard some teens talking about the oldies from the 80s. I tried to deny it but for some reason it hit me this past week.

You are listening to the wrong music... These are not the songs you're looking for... be on your way.
