Wayback Playback

I have this preoccupation with 90’s music I grew up listening to. Most people who know me know I have an ever growing 90s music playlist with songs I (and everyone else) grew up with and some have had the pleasure of listening to it. This one time I brought my playlist to a party, played it and just sat around watching people smile and sing along or try and place who sings the song and the name of the band. It was cool to see people respond to music that they haven’t heard in a while in such an enthusiastic way. Anyway, I have told about the aforementioned list to some people who don’t express much appreciation, who in fact seem to think I am less cool because I enjoy said music. I happen to believe that if you like something, just like it and forget about what other people say. There’s no such thing as a guilty pleasure to me, why should you feel guilty about something that you like? That’s the dumbest thing I’ve ever heard. So for all of those who enjoy that 90s music, good for you! Don’t be ashamed and for those who don’t, well, go be a pretentious arse somewhere else. I’m gonna go listen to Chumbawamba.
