    Man I’m a 62 yr old black guy livin in Baltimore’s hood, but I can listen to these songs before I ever listen to rap music. These 60s pop groups made some beautiful music. Just a beautiful atmosphere around all these 60s songs.

      Yes they did. I'm 57 and live in a Cleveland hood and I couldn't agree more. Love the old school Marvin Gaye songs, Al Green, The Zombies, The Animals, The Fifth Dimension. And Soooo much more.

      I'm across the river in Alexandria. I totally agree with you. You close your eyes, and you are somewhere else. "Time of the Season " isn't just a song. It's a mood.. It's a moment. It's a feeling. It's an era. It transports you to a whole other world. I hear it, and I'm swaying to the music, moving my hips and my arms slowly with my eyes closed. I'm drifting away to someplace beautiful overlooking the water.

    My social studies teacher is 63, super nice guy, never gives homework and gives minimal tests. He always starts the class by playing old fashioned music from when he was a kid, then sings and plays the tambourine. He played this today and I had to hear it again.
    He was born in 1961, the same year the school he works at was built. He always joked about seeing if he could outlast the school. The school is being torn down this year, he wins.

    I was still in HS when this song was released. Graduated in 1969 and joined the USMC in June of 1969. I knew I'd end up in Vietnam which I did in '71-'72. I had a death wish back then and knew I'd be killed in Vietnam. Now I'm glad I made it home. This song reminds me of the life and loves of the sixties and seventies when music was music and girls were girls.

      Comrade dulls - As this year Rap/R&B sales have finally overtaken rock music - The Party™ has issued initiatives to completely break down society and degrade culture so the state can take total control. This will require everyone to hand in any 70s rock albums by white artists.
      Despite most rock being correct & ideologically beneficial compositions, the band members themselves must be photoshopped less white - before being erased from the Collective Consciousness - particularly Led Zeppelin, Jethro Tull and Yes.
      Citizens will then have their albums replaced with Rihanna, Bruno Mars and Linda Ronstadt - as well a whole host of Jay-Z-Approved performers, keyed in to reduce musical literacy, normalize salacious material, and generally demoralize the population. Also a diverse Islamic Jihadist music and Mexican folk music may be included.
      MTV & The Grammys will no longer tolerate bands acting "white" by singing in English correctly, having above average tunes, playing their own instruments or using intelligent lyrics. Bourgeois values and the memory of them must be erased from the Collective Consciousness with the help of historical revisionism in the academia, news media, and the Party's branches in the entertainment sector.
      The proletariat will then undergo re-education and be released from ungood thoughts, by instilling a culture of materialism, physical beauty, sex and financial success without effort or practical ability.
