10 Songs You're Guaranteed To Hear In Every Bar, Ever
Certain things in this world are an absolute certainty; you can't wear white after Labor Day, nobody likes the tax man, and you're always going to hear absurdly loud music when drinking at a bar, usually played by a tone-deaf white dude with an acoustic guitar. In particular, these 10 songs seem to be on every bar's perpetual playlist.
If I hear one more douchebag with an acoustic guitar playing "Wonderwall" I'm gonna lose my mind.
It's not a night out unless a group of girls are shrieking along to "Livin' On A Prayer."
Or a bunch of drunken morons ruining Journey's "Don't Stop Believing."
Neil Diamond's "Sweet Caroline" is played so often by random dudes in bars that I honestly had to look up who it was originally by.
The songs get even more ridiculous from here...
Fun fact: "Closing Time" is actually about a birth, not about getting kicked out of a bar.
Def Leppard's "Pour Some Sugar On Me" never fails to liven up a crowd, especially ones that were teens in the 80s...
Even if you're not in a country bar, you're almost guaranteed to hear Garth Brooks's "Friends In Low Places."
Does anyone actually still like Skynyrd's "Sweet Home Alabama" outside of Alabama?
Pretty sure I can recite AC/DC's "You Shook My All Night Long" despite never hearing it outside of a bar.
If I never hear "Home For A Rest" again it'll be too damn soon.
What song did bars ruin for you?

Why Music Was Better in the 80s
It should be evident and apparent by now. There should be no question about it. Nobody should ever call it into question. Music was simply better in the 1980s. While the 1970s disco provided a good warmup act and the grunge and pop of the 1990s were a decent follow up, there’s just no beating the music of the 80s. The sound was better, the costumes were flashier and the whole scene was just brimming with talent and drama. Whilst there have been a number of different things to have significantly improved since the 80s, including TV shows and

So we are still seeing a lot of old technology still used in schools today because it works. Learn more about some of those tools here.The Fax MachineThe
Why 90s Games Are So Much Fun
You will often hear that the games today are so much better than those of previous generations and in some respects, that is true. The graphics are better, the sound is also better and there is nothing from the 90s that can compare to the speed of today’s gaming systems and PCs. No, you won’t find games you can play in VR with the right headset, however, that’s about as far as it goes if you are looking for some good old-fashioned fun. Let’s look at some of the reasons why 90s games are so much
The Evolution of the Internet: 90s to Now
Even for those of us that remember the 90s, it is hard to recall what we did before the days of mobile devices and constant access to the internet. In 1984, less than 10% of households had a computer or access to the internet. Today, there are about 900,000 domains registered per week. So in about 30 years, we went from barely any computers in homes to almost one million new websites registered each week. Here are some more ways the internet evolved from then to now.EntertainmentToday, there is instant access to all kinds of information from shopping
