Older people just want to feel young, so they extend their youth through listening to music that makes them feel young.

Nope, the free market is calling the shots, not the band(s). The "free market" is not even a real thing, otherwise things (in general) would be much more diverse.

You're an idiot.
Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.

Nostalgia is involved to a degree, but does not explain young people listening to old music, which happens more than you want to admit. It's why older acts are still relevant.
And no, music that has not been forgot is remembered because it's really good. But of course, I don't expect to actually consider the quality of music you hear because you are young and just want to feel young.

It's obvious you have nothing else to do but to work on increasing your level of idiocy. We really don't have to share in that journey...think of all the people you are cheating out of experiencing that thing that is you.

Anheuser Busch has been making beer since 1852, and Budweiser fucking sucks. Just because something is old and well-established, doesn't mean it's good.
