Here's the list from Marc's post about being out of touch And I wondered how many of these artists my kids would recognize and know versus me, as the way cool hipster Dad. Haley is taking a nap and therefore not available for the tally, but here is the tally for Alex and Luke and me.
So, here's the tally ...
The Black Keys
Fun (Alex, Luke, Ed)
Gotye (Alex, Luke)
Kimbra (Alex)
Frank Ocean
Taylor Swift (Alex, Luke, Ed)
Mumford and Sons (Alex, Luke)
Jack White
Ed Sheeran
Miguel
Carly Rae Jepsen (Alex, Luke, Ed)
Kelly Clarkson (Alex, Luke, Ed)
Florence and the Machine (Alex, Luke)
Maroon 5 (Alex, Luke, Ed)
Pink (Alex, Luke, Ed)
So the final score was: Alex (10/15), Luke (9/15), Ed (6/15). I suspect Haley would know even more than Alex.
So yes, it does mean that we (and by we I mean the BTAW brothers) are getting old! Brad, feel free to chime in and woo us with the depth and breadth of your current music scene awareness.
