Gen Xer here. I was a teenager in the 80s and it was the music I grew up with.

When talking about mainstream 80s music (not metal or early alt), I don't think it's aged well. There was a very homogenized, go-to sound for the bass and synths that massively date the music and make it much less timeless than the people who haven't heard anything besides a top 40 song in the last 30 years realize.

I agree the pop hits sound dated. I’ve found the older I get the more I enjoy 80s pop though. I used to hate it
