I would say about 25-30 years.

I agree with the first answer, sometimes I think that some music from the 80's is pretty oldie, and my parents say I'm crazy, that it's not even that old, so it really depends on how old you are. But most people, or at least most people that I know, usually just consider stuff from around the 60's to be oldies.

OK, get ready. I'm 61. An "oldie" to me is anything from 1980 back, though some rock tunes from the late '60s into the '70s and early 80's are considered "classic" in some radio formats. Go back any farther than about 1955 and that is considered "Nostalgia".

It depends on how old you are. If you're in high school, then an oldie is anything from the 90s or earlier. I'm in my 40s, so anything from the 50s or 60s is an oldie to me.

I agree that it all depends on age. Buddy Holly would be considered "oldie" to me, maybe even ABBA. But someone like Ace Of Base might be an "oldie" to someone who's 15. What's scary to me is that someday my kids are going to complain about "Dad's oldies" when I'm listening to say, Garbage. The same way I did when my dad played The Doors. I've come to love The Doors now, but I dread the day when my kids tell me I'm out of style. And I don't even have kids yet.
