Why people think it's weird when you listen alot to the 80's instead when you're supposed to be listening to the music they have now like eminem, nelly furtado, jay-z and all that new age type of music?

Totally normal, the 80s has cycled to the front of the retro queue.

OMG I just read some of these answers. The 80s was refered to as oldies. Oldies to me is the 60s.That is just so weird. Can you imagine when Eminem will be refered to as Oldies!
I'm 36. I knew this would happen eventually. Thats ok though. I'm 36 going on 24. It'll take alot more than this to make me feel old!
I'm curious, what 80s music do you like?

i'm 15, people don't say anything, and I certainly don't think it's wrong since the new music absolutely sucks. plus, when I have band shows, all my band plays is 70's and 80' music, I play with people around 30 because no one my age can keep up, but it's awesome

It is totally normal. I'm 21 and i listen 2 70's music like Janis Joplin, and Pink Floyd. All the music now sucks so just find somethin u like and f*** the rest of them. be yourself at least you're not a poser just doing what MTV wants you to. Be proud of who you are and in the end you'll be glad. I am.

Yes, because there was some really wonderful songs in that era. Most musicians are influenced by songs from previous generations.
Besides, who says you have to listen to music of today. You can listen to whatever kind of music you like!

yeah im in that age range and almost all the stuff i listen to is from a long time ago (since late 70's)
i dont like all this new age "music"
i like old stuff like the ramones, sex pistols, dead kennedys, operation ivy, misfits, that kinda stuff
i dont think its weird, but i probly wouldnt know considering i think a lot of "weird" things arent "weird"...
yeah...i think its completely normal
