When you listen to songs of era 50’s, 60’s, and 70’s, the lyrics and composition was sound different from the current era music. Earlier, technical enhancements were not much, so musicians and singers were unable to do lots of experiments. They used to sing loud and clear so that people can get them clearly. Musicians were not able to add twists in the music because of the same reason. But in the current time, there are lots of technical enhancements and facilities are available which can be used to make a different kind of music.
Young bucks love listen to this music, but old age people say it’s a noise pollution only. Most of the music virtuoso, who loves golden songs avoid nowadays’ songs and music. They like music which is soft and not ear breaking sound. However the young generation is fond of this kind of music, but they also love listening olden melodies.
