By these reaction videos. How can they not have heard some of these classic songs. But maybe that's because I'm just a few years from yelling get off my lawn at the neighbor kids.

At any rate while it's nice to see young people enjoying the stuff I liked when I was there age; many of their "takes" are little more than "that's cool". Frequently they stop the song for some irrelevant chatter.

At best the reaction is by someone with relevant expertise so that this old dog can learn something I didn't know or notice about the song before.
This guy for example.
