Still listened to in 2099?

yes...

 

Sparklehorse.
And Portishead.
And Talk Talk.
Ahead of their time all 3

 

My best guess is that none of them will be listened to 80 years from now.

 

I know it won't be me listening to music in 2099. Unfortunately

 

I'll be 98 years old in 2099 so maybe I could be there (impossible to imagine though). Among my favorite artists:

The Beatles, Bob Dylan and Simon & Garfunkel will definitely be heard in 2099. Even if they should be forgotten, songs like Yesterday, Blowin' in the Wind and Sound of Silence will surely be remembered in the same way as Home on the Range or Oh, Susanna is remembered now.

I doubt Beach Boys' surf & car stuff will be still relevant then, but I'm pretty sure Pet Sounds and their non-surf or car summer songs will still be relevant on the contrary.

Frank Sinatra will not be forgotten, that's for sure, but I don't think his music would be heard much at that point.

The Four Seasons will probably be forgotten, but "Can't Take My Eyes off You" will remain as a standard.

 

Why don't you just use the Orion Cube to peek ahead? Oh yea you probably don't work at the pentagon.

 

The jazz scene in 2099 is going to be awesome..

 

Beatles, Zep, early 70s soul.

 

The songbook of the Grateful Dead although not necessarily the band's versions of them. I think songs like Friend of the Devil, Stella Blue and Ripple have staying power, similar to the songs of Cole Porter and Stephen Foster. All three songbooks will still be mined by artists in 2099.

 

So are the haters

 

I can see the Fisherman’s Blues/Room
to Roam era Waterboys’ legacy persisting.

 

Realistically Mozart and Beethoven etc.
They've already survived hundreds of years.

 

Probably Bach, Mozart, Beethoven and other stuff that already survived through the ages. I like classic rock as much as anyone else here, but I really doubt whether anyone will be listening to that in 2099.

 

No artist now known will be of the slightest interest in 2099. All fame will be viewed as utter poison. Any rock-stars will be looked down upon as uninteresting foolishness. All notions of celebrity, reknown or notoriety will -- finally -- be profoundly abhorrent to every single human being alive. Those who thirst for art and music of the past will be intrigued only by what was totally unknown in that past. The hit records of the future will all be by rediscovered unknowns and obscure amateurs, gleaned from one-of-a-kind cassette tapes inscribed with little to no information. The mysteries of this hundred year old musique brut will bemuse billions of fans worldwide, while the literal objects of their adoration will in every case be artists barely worthy of the name, and in any case long gone; blisteringly amateur, they compel fanatacism --- 2099 will be a world in which all information, all culture, all knowledge, is instantly accessible by every individual --- there will arise an ongoing mania for the completely unknowable.

 

Those that hasn't been remastered to death.

 

Oh come on, don't have a turn...

 

Judas Priest are definitely OUT, then.

 

They're out anyway

 

No biggie you just insulted some of the most educated people in the world by calling them stupid.

 

you just like the cover dude lol

 

one can only hope celebrity will have died down ... currently celebrity seems more important than anything else ... folks seem to be famous just for being famous and not actually doing anything, except perhaps sex tapes ......

 

Surely they have better things to do than be insulted by my opinion.
