i think sandi thom said it best in her song "i wish i as a punk rocker." you should down load it.
I was born too late, into a world that doesnt care
In '77 and '69 revolution was in the air
Oh I wish I was a punk rocker with flowers in my hair
When the head of state didn't play guitar
Not everybody drove a car
When music really mattered and when radio was king
When accountants didn't have control
And the media couldn't buy your soul
Computers were still scary and we didnt know everything
Chorus
When pop stars still remained a myth
And ignorance could still be bliss
When God saved the Queen she turned a whiter shade of pale
My mom and dad were in their teens
And anarchy was still a dream
The only way to stay in touch was a letter in the mail
Chorus
When record shops were still on top
And vinyl was all that they stocked
And the super info highway was still drifting out in space
Oh I wish I was a punk rocker with flowers in my hair
Chorus
Kids were wearing hand-me-downs
And playing games meant kick around
Footballers still had long hair and dirt across their face
Chorus
I was born too late, into a world that doesn't care
Oh I wish I was a punk rocker with flowers in my hair

The best thing about the "good old" days is that they brought us to the present moment, which ain't so bad. And they keep the promise of a better future alive.
The best is yet to come!

the fact that we can look back to familiar times and the very fact that we got through them is a positive thing. It's enough to know that we don't have to chose to remember the bad.
