  4. It's sad they don't make music from the 1970's annymore...
  5. what? you mean styles of music that existed in the 70s? not sure I understand what you're saying here.
  6. Well, I'm making some kind of a joke here, but it seems like it's rocked scince to understand it... I indeed mean that I do usually listen to 70's music, and that that are my favourite albums, I indeed could justy have said that and mantioned my favourite albums, but I just liked to make a little joke with it, by saying I don't like that they don't make music made in the 1970's at this poit in time, wich is quite logical... by the way, that isn't even my favoutite music, since I'm currently listening to jazz from 2007, and I usually listen to jazz from about anny year, but, That wouldn't have fit in that joke....
    I'm sorry if you're confused now...
  7. The number 5 best selling album of 2016 was mostly 1970s songs. Actually, when you look at the top 100 selling albums of 2016 it has a bunch that were songs released during the 70s. Beatles, Pink Floyd, old Bowie, ABBA, old Queen, and others.

  8. My favourite album this year has to be 'The Getaway' from the Red Hot Chili Peppers
  9. Exactly, funnily enough music released in 2016 from artists of the 70s killed it this year in sales. Especially Bowie!

  10. You should listen to The 1975's newest album. It's kinda late 70s/80s - particularly the song 'Love Me', which I've heard compared to Duran Duran's stuff so many times.

    The Rolling Stones also released a new album the other day if you like them.

    1. The 1975 - I like it when you sleep, for you are so beautiful yet so unaware of it
    2. Zayn - Mind of Mine
    3. Catfish and the Bottlemen - The Ride
    4. The Weeknd - Starboy
    5. Two Door Cinema Club - Gameshow
    Will probably add more once I get the chance to listen to some new stuff released in the last two weeks. I've been catching up on all the stuff I missed and burst out of my 'Coldplay + Arctic Monkeys 4eva, wheneva' bubble I've been stuck in for the past three years. Most of the albums I've found I really like this year are from 2015 lol.

  11. Haven't really got many albums to say. My main favourite is Sia's; This is Acting. I enjoyed Rihanna's; Anti. Here are some others:

    Foxes - All I Need
    Birdy - Beautiful Lies
    Tove Lo - Lady Wood

    There hasn't been much music that has captured me this year. Mainly just listened to the same 2015 stuff.
