   I’m not sure what a ‘borong’ is but you’re probably right – a mere half century and today’s generation are still enjoying The Beatles, Cliff Richard, Rolling Stones etc.

   Well I don’t go for that long-haired stuff so all I’ve got to say is this:
   

   
   I’m gonna write a little letter,
   Gonna mail it to my local DJ.
   Yeah an’ it’s a jumpin’ little record
   I want my jockey to play.
   Roll Over Beethoven, I gotta hear it again today.
   

   
   You know, my temperature’s risin’
   The jukebox’s blowin’ a fuse.
   My heart’s beatin’ rhythm
   And my soul keeps a-singin’ the blues.
   Roll Over Beethoven and tell Tschaikowsky the news.
   

   
   I got the rockin’ pneumonia,
   I need a shot of rhythm and blues.
   I caught the rollin’ arthiritis
   Sittin’ down at a rhythm review.
   Roll Over Beethoven they’re rockin’ in two by two.
   

   
   Well, if you feelin’ like it
   Go get your lover, then reel and rock it.
   Roll it over and move on up just
   A trifle further and reel and rock with it,
   Roll it over,
   Roll Over Beethoven, dig these rhythm and blues.
   

   
   Well, early in the mornin’ I’m a-givin’ you a warnin’
   Don’t you step on my blue suede shoes.
   Hey diddle diddle, I am playin’ my fiddle,
   Ain’t got nothin’ to lose.
   Roll Over Beethoven and tell Tschaikowsky the news.
   

   
   You know she wiggles like a glow worm,
   Dance like a spinnin’ top.
   She got a crazy partner,
   Ya oughta see ’em reel and rock.
   Long as she got a dime the music wont never stop.
   

   
   Roll Over Beethoven,
   Roll Over Beethoven,
   Roll Over Beethoven,
   Roll Over Beethoven,
   Roll Over Beethoven, dig these rhythm and blues.

   Are we sure the doctor is in? She seems ‘far out’ to me!

   I’ll listen to swing-era music, R&B, blues & old time rockn’ roll but classical music is the type of music I heard in my old dentist’s office. I never wanted to hear it anywhere else because I would be reminded of that dentist’s office.
   

   
   I think it best you listen to what you like and I’ll listen to what I like.

   My father liked it too. I got to hear more than I cared to growing up, but it doesn’t move me the way it moves you.

   My present dentist actually has a TV in every room and plays movies.

    Oops. That’s what I get for commenting before I read most of the comments.

    Having classical music shoved into my ears since I was a baby, I really do not blame anyone for not enjoying. When anything is made a detested chore when you are young, it never becomes “nice”.

    Kids naturally like the simple tunes, that is when the love of music starts. ALL music is to be treasured, even that “twangy guitar”. Show children from a positive light and they will enjoy.

    I agree… Music is music. There are some great tunes in any genre (except Rap…). There are bad tunes in any genre. Some are debatably bad and others just plain stink. It’s okay that we like different tunes and different genres. I wouldn’t like someone telling me I HAVE to eat something I don’t want to eat. I’m all for trying new things and keeping an open mind. But I’m an adult. I can make up my own mind. I love Classical music, especially Beethoven, Chopin, Bach, Handel, and Rachmaninoff. (John Williams symphonic soundtrack music is much the same thing thing. Ever listen to The Planets by Holst? Williams’ Star Wars sounds a lot like that.) My oldest brother was a teen when The Beatles were tops. I still love listening to most of their stuff. ‘70s music is my favorite era of pop music. Some great stuff there. I also enjoy listening to jazz, both the classic and the modern stuff. One of my favorites is Pat Metheny. Music is too beautiful to close one’s mind to. I love listening for the different instruments and phrases in Classical music. I also enjoy some of the great guitar or saxophone solos in rock and pop. It’s all good!
