Great song. This isn't classic rock....

I have an issue reaching into the 90s for songs, but, considering the song is 29 years old, when do we define a song as “Classic Rock?”

I think it’s a moving target. We think classic rock, we think the Beatles, Led Zeppelin, the Doors, etc. but really classic rock is music that we want to live on beyond it’s years.

That’s the reason that my only rule, aside from general manners interacting with other users is: “your song must be old enough to drink.” Songs 21 years or older, IMO, qualify.

Agree? Disagree?

It's not that it isn't classic, it isn't rock. It's trip hop.
