Britpop was full of god-awful lyrics, but Spandau Ballet's are the standard of shit lyrics that have yet to be beaten, IMO.
this is so wrong

i remember the incredulous looks the presenter(was it jo whiley?) gave justine when she answered her question "have you heard this miles davis album?" and justine gave a "oh yeah" reply.
Geldof was unbelievably obnoxious. Nothing was better than dylan or the beatles etc for him. I dont think he liked any music post-70s
― ۩, Friday, 24 January 2014 23:19 (ten years ago) link
alfred sadly its the other way around
in the uk anyway. it sparked off a massive revival to young people. Previously it was only the over 35s who cared about them.

Yup, this is correct. Oasis' success in the UK came before the Beatles' Anthology thing, and Noel Gallagher's relentless championing of the Beatles, coupled with the timing of the Anthology documentary being aired on UK TV, helped to expose the Beatles to a younger generation.

Yup, pretty much this. In the '90s young people (unless they were serious, serious music geeks) didn't really give much of a shit about The Beatles. They were seen as somewhat "old hat". The success of Oasis/Britpop made it okay for young people to like The Beatles.
