I am 30, a child of the 80's, and a nightclub DJ and was just wondering if I was the only one who thinks the music of 2003 sucks major arse.

I am a total New Wave junky today (something I couldn't stomach back then) - Talk Talk, Echo and the Bunnymen, Psychedelic Furs, New Order, Morissey, Depeche Mode, etc.

When I play songs like "In Da Club" or "Magic Stick" or "Shake Ya Tailfeather" or "Get Low" I honestly want to be sick. I don't get how that has become the music of choice for today.

I look at songs like "Come on Eileen" and "Our House" and "Blister in the Sun" and "99 Luft Baloons" and think to myself, there is NO way people are going to listen to "In Da Club" in 20 years and relish on how great that song was.
