   @clive 80s stuff is a pretty big deal with the youngs. I saw plenty of people half my age at a Squeeze show recently.

     I'm working at a cafe today and "Don't Dream It's Over" by Crowded House comes on

     during the chorus I look to my left far across the cafe where two young women, maybe 20 years old, are sitting together

     they both have their heads tilted back and eyes closed, mouthing DON'T DREAAAAAAAMMM it's OHHHHHHH-VER like they're onstage in American Idol

     man, I had no idea Gen Z kids even *knew* that song
