"All the Small Things" is as old now as "Shining Star" by Earth, Wind, and Fire was when "All the Small Things" came out

Oooh, I like this one. Like Smashing Pumpkins - 1979. The equivalent song today would be about 2007, I think.

A song as iconic as "1979" by The Smashing Pumpkins that came out in 2007 would be "Thnks fr th Mmrs" by Fall Out Boy.

We've crossed the line where "1985" is as far back as 1985 was.

I'll have to ponder this in my yellow SUV.
