Dunno Ben--You are asking for nuance and middle ground in an attention economy. I wish this was a message people could get behind....but I worry we are too far gone.

Music wise, I grew up listening to Dad's vinyls and bawling my eyes out to Bobby Goldsboro's Honey. Let Culture Club and Twisted Sister usher me into the 80s, thought XTC was just the coolest of cool in late 80s, went old school metalhead and Tom Petty devotee in the early 90s, was a club kid who just wanted more bass through college....and since then, if it's on the radio, I'm listening. Music defines eras--if you give me a song, I might not know who sang it--but I can tell you what grade I was in when it came out :-)
