And every generation loves a lot of crap. Most of the pop of my day is crap, Some things endure. Just like dozens of second rate shows were extremely popular. Abie's Irish Rose was one of most successful plays ever produced. How Much is That Doggie in the Window was one of biggest recordings of the 50s. I'm more judgemental than you. I judge Sinatra's (by way of Richards and Leigh) Young at Heart better. Not just different....better.

Oh I have nothing against being judgmental (I do have something against the extra "e" even though it is not incorrect :-) ) so long as we understand that it is 100% subjective (which you obviously do). It's when someone tries to pretend it is objective that I get my feathers ruffled. When someone uses the word "hip" in the context of what is, at bottom, a variation on the emperor's new clothes canard, that also gets my dander up. An antihistamine usually clears that up though.
