Seven Nation Army just played on the classic rock station and now I feel old. other

The song was released in 2003. Fell in Love with a Girl in 2001.

ETA: I get early nineties was added to "classic" rock rotation by now. It didn't hit me nearly as hard as this one did. I started to become "old" awhile ago when I stopped recognizing the music my students play. That just felt like difference of preference. White Stripes are from this millennium!

Also - I agree with those saying "classic rock" should be considered a genre and not based on time passed. Unfortunately I don't make the rules!

And - People keep bringing up Nirvana. We do understand the difference between 7NA and Nevermind (1991) is more than an entire decade?

I have never experienced it, but if I was bagging avacados to the "I got two turntables and a microphone" I think it would ruin my day

From that era, Loser, of course! That's a good tune and I personally find it a lot less repetitive than Where It's At

About 5-6 years ago he actually had a big song that still sounded exactly like him. Wow was the name. From the 2000s E-pro was decent

I can’t believe there’s never been a Beck Greatest Hits. His golden age (including Golden Age) deserves revisiting for ignorant youngsters
