How Music Evolved

I have recently found a very cool website that I think a lot of people would enjoy. It is an ongoing interactive chart of Billboards Top 100 Songs since 1958. I had spent hours just sitting and listening to how each new wave of music was popular for a certain number of years until a new sound came through. It was very interesting to see how the styles of music in each decade melted into each other slightly when they are heard evolving together. I find it fascinating how we wouldn’t have the music of the 90’s if it weren’t for the music of the 80’s. When you compare music from the 70’s to the 90’s, it’s like a whole different world without the transition in the 80’s. I think it’s amazing how music has morphed over the decades into what we listen to now. I wonder what our popular music will sound like in 10 more years? Or maybe 20?

Here’s a link to the website; check it out!
