    This is going to be hard to hear, but:

    Bryan Adams released "Summer of '69" in 1985. A similar nostalgia-based song released now would be harkening back to the distant and bygone year of 2010.

        @jsr similarly, Bowling for Soup's "1985" (released 2004) would now be about the far off year of 2007

              Miley Cyrus released "Party in the U.S.A." in 2009, ten years after the first Britney song came on the radio. A similar nostalgia-based song released now would be harkening back to the distant and bygone year of 2016.

                    @TheDutchChief @Keab42 @Flamekebab @jsr 2010 was definitely memorable for me.

                    Was organising an international convention and less than 24h before it started that bastard unpronounceable volcano shut down all of Europe’s airspace.

                    Fuck 2010.

                                  @realSiegfried not his own experience.

                                  Bryan was 10 years old in 1969, living in Beruit where his British father was a military attaché.

                                  His agent and rock promoter Bruce Allen had matched Bryan up with a lyricist who was a decade older. He has said in interviews after he was free of that contractual relationship that he wasn’t always comfortable justifying songs that weren’t within his own experience.

                                  @jsr

                                      @jsr bit Brit specific, but they mentioned on the radio the other day that the Maradona "Hand of God" moment was 40 years ago, which means that that day is now twice as far away as the England World Cup win of 1966 was then.

                                      (I know nothing of football, but these things are weird archaeological monoliths in English culture).

                                          @jsr Marty McFly’s 1955 would be 1996.

                                          @NotTheLBCGuy @jsr I guess then if we just say that Marty's 1855 is our 1896, I don't have to feel quite as old (I should mention this to my knees).
