Do any younger people listen to oldies?

Like the Eagles or anybody like them? I do, but it seems other people my age don't.

Update:

forgot Eagles was classic rock. I love Clash, Van Halen, Beetles, Led Zeppelin, BTO, ZZ Top, Bob Seager, Journey.

Im talking teens and 20s

    Hey raindrop. Heck yes man! I know heaps of people my age that listen to oldies. I remember in highschool people thought i was weird because i listened to old music, classic rock and such but i didn't care. I never subscribed to all the new music floating around. I'm too much of a classic rock chick. Bands I like:

    Lynyrd Skynyrd

    The Beatles

    Led Zeppelin

    Pink Floyd

    The Eagles

    The Who

    The Guess Who

    The Rolling Stones

    Bad Company

    Creedence Clearwater Revival

    Elvis

    Three Dog Night

    Steve Miller Band

    Marshal Tucker Band

    and many many more...

    Well, the Eagles are not "oldies"; they're considered classic rock.

    Oldies--nah, the oldest thing my niece listens to is the Kinks so she has finally clued into Brit mod stuff (she likes the early You Really Got Me stuff). I think oldies is more '50s doo-wop rock 'n' roll to be honest.

    Anyway, Eagles...OK, fine, but check out some New Wave/punk bands from the '70s and '80s like the Clash, Jam, Buzzcocks, Rezillos, etc.

    No it truly is unquestionably not extraordinary.evaluate this, maximum of my popular song comes from the 60s,70s,and 80s and that i'm 14. do not worry what different people imagine. only be your self. as well, it truly is the position maximum artists of at present were given their thought, from the classics of the 60s,70s,and 80s.

    Do not know exactly how young younger is... I have turned my kids onto a lot of good music that I liked when I was their age...Likewise, I thought Good Charlotte's "Lifestyles of the rich and famous" was a riot... IBC, the Great Malinko, was also funny and good. Just depends on what you like...

    I do. I love the oldies that my dad use to listen to when he was a young kid/man. Especially Tommy James and the shaundales.
