Totally agree, late 60s to late 80s, but being a jazz fan I do agree with another in this thread that the 50s started a lot of it, but the 30s and 40s had great jazz, swing and big band. 90% of the forward progress, talent and creativity stopped almost exactly at 1990, as rap and grunge.took over. SO depressing.

@Jay, I loved the 1970s, but I was kid too. I thought for a long time about how the world seemed so much nicer and more stable then, but I realized later that history shows the world was pretty messed up then in a lot of ways. There were horrors like famine in Africa, war in Vietnam, the Cold War, gasoline crisis, racial tension and injustice, slavery, totalitarian government oppression, the threat of nuclear war, gang violence, crime, etc. The world has never been a rose garden. My childhood was a rose garden in the 70s, but the world in general was not.

For years I thought this song is lost for me...i was a kiddo when i found some compilation cassette with yellow label. This song was last one on side A. I was sold immediately with rewinding it until it lost every tone above 10kHz. The tape was gone with time but melody and few words remained in my head. Back then I didn't knew english. Thanks to Google who's algorithm recognized chirps from my head and brought me to this masterpiece. Seventies and eighties in heart forever.

Ich lag im Kinderbett, war noch sehr klein. Meine Eltern ließen oft das Radio laufen. Es war ein Gefühl der Geborgenheit, das ich jetzt noch habe, wenn ich alte Songs höre. Dieser Song jedoch hat nun, da ich den Inhalt verstehe, einen bitteren Beigeschmack

As a small child I was inconsolable, with the lyrics singing of my greatest, most horrific fear. Now that fear has become reality. My pretty mother died last week, after an aggressive blood cancer took her life two months after diagnosis. I miss her more than words can say.. more than ever when listening to her old music.

The 70’ was a fantastic time. Great music and a time when the younger generation were cutting free. 👍

@ruthsayers1163 2 жыл бұрын

Cutting free from what????? Were there the problems with teenagers that there are now?????

@crieff1sand2s 11 ай бұрын

If you read the lyrics to this song it's the parents cutting free and leaving the kids to fend for themselves and one of the children is a baby,leaving "mama & papa to go far far away" it's a pretty depressing song if u read the lyrics 🤔

My parents loved that song and had put it on repeat over and over again. I was a child back then and didn't like it all. Now, centuries later, I enjoy listening to the happy songs now and then.

Pay close attention to the credits. "Care-free" for child molesters who get to the grave before the justice system gets to them... I wonder if the fiddled-kids reminisce wistfully.

1971:zu der Zeit habe ich mit meinem ersten Käfer die Mosel erkundet.Urlaub in Cochem.Wobei ich sagen muß,ich bin gebürtiger Cochemer.Aber 1958 aus familierem Grund nach NRW gezogen. Drei Wochen lang von Cochem bisTrier,oder von Cochem nach Koblenz,immer an der Mosel entlang,und in jedem Ort,ein Abziehbild gekauft,und auf's Auto gepappt.Das war einfach nur toll.Kann man sich heute gar nicht mehr vorstellen.So ändern sich die Zeiten.L.G.
