Wanna feel old?
In 2026 these songs celebrate 50 years of existence.
Hotel California
Don't Fear the Reaper
More than a Feeling
Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap (sounds like a Cuz bio)
Go Your Own Way
The Boys are Back in Town
50 years before that Baby Face and Bye Bye Blackbird were 2 of the top hits of the day.
I can verify that 50 years ago then felt a whole helluva lot longer ago in the past than when Hotel California coming out does now.

Whenever I want to feel old, I consider that my birth year is closer to 1900 than today.

I just want to remind everyone here that their team of choice hasn't won a damn thing in 56 years... we're closer to Dust In The Wind than Lustin' The Win.
You made me wanna feel old, so I plugged in the Strat and wanked out the Hotel California solo a couple a times. So satisfying...

So you must be born in 1962 or earlier.

Nah, for me that won't be the case until June.
Or I guess for this full year you can consider it a tie.

Without my reading glasses, font size doesn't matter...
