Not really. I only started listening and getting in to music of my own accord around 2008. I know a few classics but that's it really. I'm in the (slow) process of going back, back I've only gone back to mid-90's so far. The only artist I've delved into pre-90's is Dusty Springfield who I stan so hard for I randomly watched this documentary on her a year or two ago and fell in love.
'90s music is my bread and butter, but I'm pretty knowledgeable of music from the '50s, '60s, and '70s as well because of my mother. She is a STAN. Okay? All she listens to is older music & Beyonce. She doesn't know how to put music on her iPod, so I'm the one that does it and through syncing her music I've come to really enjoy people like Bobby Womack, Simon & Garfunkel, Elton John, The Carpenters, Boy George, The Temptations, The Supremes, The Bee Gees, Carl Carlton, Dinah Washington, ABBA, Sonny & Cher etc.

Mariah Carey and John Legend did a nice job, not enough actual chemistry there though.
If Tina fans dislike Beyoncé it would make a lot of sense actually. Madonna fans hate Lady Gaga. Janet Jackson fans hate Ciara. Prince stans hate everyone. Michael Jackson stans hate Chris Brown.
But im talking about her REAL fans anyway, the adults, not the children who know one song and think they know Tina. Her over 30 fans enjoy Beyoncé and always have.
!!!!! Prince.Org is a mess.

I did a research project on ABBA my sophomore year, got really into them for awhile, was stanning for them around the release of "Mamma Mia! The Movie"
Other than them, I haven't delved into an older artists' discography. It's mainly just the hits from the 70's and 80's for me.
PS -- There are some supremely gif-worthy moments in that video...
80s? Thanks but no, that's like a rock era. I was born in the 90s so I LOVE the 90s era. Without posting the obvious and iconic ones (Mariah Carey's "Dreamlover" and "Hero", Celine Dion's "Because You Loved Me", "My Heart Will Go On") here are some epic 90s music:
Thinking about it... the 90s had the best R&B music.

I'm pretty familiar with Motown. I also like quite a bit of 80s pop and some of the corny stadium rock (Bon Jovi ).
I know very little about old school rock. Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, Rolling Stones, and all the other rock bands that the white guys who write for music magazines cream themselves over are non-entities to me.
Song of the Week: Can't Hold Us (feat. Ray Dalton) - Macklemore & Ryan Lewis
Gerl I was just all up & through the Donna Summer Singles Rate, the good auntie delivered disco like no ****in' other.
She SERVED in the 70s, and has never really gotten the credit she deserves. Punched Aretha, Diana, Gladys, Dionne, and plenty others out the game from 1975 - ~1981.
I've been meaning to listen to the whole Bad Girls LP in full, but I'm probably just gonna buy the deluxe set off Amazon since it's only $20.
