The season change has prompted thoughts of dancing, you know, dancing to change, dancing to the joy of warming weather, rising greenery, leaves on trees, and blooming flowers and buds. A lot of good dance songs exist but I turned to “Dance, Dance” by Fall Out Boy. It came out in 2005, fourteen years ago, so does that make it an oldie? How long must a song be out before it’s an oldie, a golden oldie, and a classic? Any thoughts?
My thinking is that a song needs to be out for at least 30 years before it’s considered an “oldie” but then I listen to it and think, it can’t possibly be 30 yrs already, this played in high school! Then I remember how old I am, lol.

LOL – I totally understand. Maybe we should refer to songs between 30 and 2 years old as previously heard melodies.
