Talking Heads…it’s amazing that Remain in light is 40 years old…

Another one is Joy Division

I came here to say New Order.

Most all of the classic jazz artists. Or are we sticking with rock-ish music only?

Are you talking about looks or musically? Or both?

Skill; voice and musicianship are still excellent.

Neil Finn's voice has hardly changed. Bono of my beloved U2, can't hit the notes like he used to.

I agree. Went 25 years and never really even thought about her, but her output is just great

If only some forward thinking person had started a thread solely for shallowly objectifying other people on here at some point.

I mean. . . Weird Al? Probably the most widely known accordionist.
One of the few VH1 behind the music artists to find greater success than VH1.
. . . On second though, maybe it's less that he's aged well (though he definitely looks less creepy uncle without the facial accessories), so much so as he's kind of kept evergreen.

I'm not sure what you were getting at, but I guess my question was pointed toward Vernon Reid. What has he done in the last 10 years? Maybe he's still thin?

And though I liked Living Colour back in the day, I'd put that band in the aged very badly category.

Just watched Stop Making Sense on Amazon What a great film.
Wonder what would have been if Adrian Belew replaced David Byrne as they were apparently discussing back in the day.
