- On the contraray, the Countdown shows just go to show that people who liked
- pop music (e.g. the teenie boppers you mentioned) had it so much better
- then, even during the mid 80s. Even if you didn't like the music in the
- mid 70's shows, you have to admit that Countdown then was a happenning
- thing, moving and grooving from one hit song to another, you know what I mean.

- There's nothing nearly as good now, not on TV, and not even on commercial radio.
- (unless you like oldies). What a pitty.
