Los clasicos nunca mueren

Why is that a lot of times we think of past times as better?
In the laps of 4 days I've been in two dancing shows, quite different between them.

The first one was a contemporary dance from a Filipine guy, pretty well considered and the second show was a Tango event with live music included.
I'm supposed to be a young person, pretty far away from the tango times. Contemporary is the "in" thing, letting your body express all your emotions, and I can't help but love and enjoy Tango way better.
I don't feel identified with contemporary, and eventhough I appreciate the skills and hard work that is involve in it, it just doesn't touch me.
Maybe is that i haven't seen the "appropiate" contemporary dance that touches my soul, that evoques certain feelings or reactions, but at the same time I watch Tango, listen to the music and my body starts tingling, I just want to stand up and dance.
Why is that? I wasn't born with it, but that broken voice, singing about happiness and sorrows, and betrays, and the moves of the dancers, expressing every beat, it just looks sooo cool.
The same with salsa, waltz, swing and even foxtrot, thoes are no dances from my generation and I always enjoyed the music (now i can even dance them).
Could it be that I'm the reencarnation of someone from the past? Could it be that that soul took over of my current life and that's why I feel more comfortable with old songs than with new ones?
hmmm.... maybe not, since I really love house and dance music, but anyways, I just think is curious how differ can be one type of music from the other, and love them both.
