What Year Is It? Everything Old is New Again as McCartney Rocks Glastonbury, Stones Take Hyde Park, Elvis King of Box Office and So is Top Gun!
Um, what year is it?
Over the weekend 83 year old Paul McCartney played a three hour plus set of Beatles and Wings songs at the Glastobury Festival.
At the same time, the Rolling Stones — total age 300 or more — brought 65,000 fans in Hyde Park.
Elvis Presley, dead since 1977, topped the box office. So did “Top Gun,” the sequel to a 1984 movie.
Comfort food for the masses?
Let’s not forget that the number 1 song, “Running Up that Hill,” is Kate Bush’s hit from 1985. It’s 37 years old. And the TV show it’s from is set in the 1980s and pays homage to movies from that era.
