the younger generation

i was thinking about britney spears yesterday...just stay with me.
she will always have a special place in my heart, as well as n'sync, savage garden, and old school nickelodeon, maybe even christina aguilera and backstreet boys, but i was first and foremost a fan of the spears/sync duo. i remember the first land before time movie and yo-yo's and slap bracelets, do you remember pogs? there is also harry potter the series actually started with our generation, but i think has a bigger impact with the one after us.
now that i am 20, i think about the younger generation, the tweens of today and i ask myself when they are 20 years old will miley cyrus have a special place in their heart, will zak efron...oh geez, will high school musical and the phenomenon it made always be an amazing memory in their mind. Will the jonas brothers still take their breath away when they are my age. i sure hope so. will they still love edward cullin from twilight years down the road...i mean, he doesn't age right?
like me, i will always be a britney fan, i hope they can say the same about miley, just like the generation before us can say that about madonna.
this is how i see it, the generation before us was mtv.
our generation was nickelodeon.
the generation following us is clearly disney channel.
