Why are people into 80s music that sucked in the 80s?

well 80s music is awesome, and todays music sucks seriously look at the singers today its just going downhill, so now we realize how good music used to be!

Different preferences, that's all. I might ask why people are into rap music because I think it sucks...doesn't mean that it's an absolute.

I gotta agree. MOST 80s music did suck hard & naturally, lots of people who weren't born back then see it through movies, old videos & rosy glasses. Listen, people- 80s music is FORGETTABLE after around 1983. PRIOR to that we had great new wave from the UK & rock still rocked. If you think acts like New Kids on The Block, Warrant, Poison, Milli Vanilli & Tiffany are 'classics', then you should be drawn & quartered....

It was less controversial, You did'nt hear the N word or the A word or the S word every 5 seconds. It was just music and it was fun. I guess you don't like it Huh?

dont know

dude 80's music is great

Everyone to their own taste, but I admit there's very few memorable songs from the 80s

i can't really say without you giving an example of which bands you are talking about. it doesn't matter about the decade, most music on the radio sucks but the radio stations are owned by corporations, those corporations are owned by larger corporations who own the music corporations and they push what kind of music they think is popular until they've bled the genre dry and then they move on to another genre.

History repeats itself. More and more bands each day are basing there songs off 80's rock hits, as this becomes more and more popular, it makes fans want to learn about their influences and become fans of those influences.
