I found myself trying to explain to my son why "She's Hot" by the Rolling Stones is uncool, while "Gimme Shelter" is. Is there any objective standard for this, or does it purely depend on whether the song was overplayed in one's vicinity when it came out?
For instance, I would say that Dire Straits' "Romeo and Juliet" is very cool, but "Money" is not. any thoughts? What would you consider to be rock that is truly classic? I mean something that will be cool twenty years or thirty years from now, not necessarily the usual sense of somehting at least fifteen years old.
