Generation X- the Retro Generation?



Yesterday, I talked about things I missed from back in the day. I grew up in the 70's and 80's and by definition I am considered to be part of Generation X. It would seem that there are a lot of Generation X that are heavily into retro and vintage things. Companies are really starting to jump onto the bandwagon and advertising to us in ways that remind us of days gone by.

There is a huge movement to drive old cars, get old school tattoos and to even dress in styles from decades ago. We live in a custom culture and Generation X is starting to really bring things back. If you don't believe me Check out Curious Crow Vintage or other shops on Etsy or sites like Decorate For The Holiday that boasts their line of vintage and retro holiday decorations coming soon.

Times are changing but it seems that more often than not, Generation X is trying to bring things back. Here is a list of things I would like Generation X to go ahead and lay to rest before they get any bright Ideas: Mullets, Spandex, Disco Music and hot pants. What would you like to see brought back or not brought back. I want to know!

evoli and three 1989

evoli and three

one enchanted beauty of sorrow is
on enchanted key of possession lost
lost from the view of my mortal eyes has
given me the quest of therefor finding
the key that i should learn to hold to me
and open the sorrow be it no more
the castle on the far reach understands me not
and a dream of visions coming true she and me
come back my lost vision that i may see
of fallen grandeur such as ozymandias be
help me on my quest so that i may never leave
of daemons and dragons and creatures of the night
of castles and wizards and magicks of the life
of life love and no hate and feelings of the heart
of dreams of and lost love and powers of the mind
these things i shall seek and low these things i shall find
of life’s lost solemn promise may it be
of life’s solemn love give it to me
to deceive a phrase you are everything
of mozart’s music be them songs of love
of my strong love is my thoughts are of all
that he is no longer remembered by himself
is his fear of loosing her to someone of else
be they may they be no more lay it on the shelf
and whence they leave oh heavenly love find themselves
in each others arms loving each others self
of lightning and thunder and raining in the dark
of loving and hatred and let there not be two
of lying and cheating let there be neither nor
for found i have a love so true a love for life
and there it will be evoli and three
and here it will be and for she and me
i have discovered what is of the key
one enchanted beauty of sorrow is
one enchanted key of possession lost
i discovered that the key must be me
