I'm sure there were people who heard this song in the 1980s and said things like, "who is this Parr guy? Today's music sucks. Not like the good music we had with Grand Funk Railroad and Spenser Davis Group." And 40 years from now there will be someone saying, "Today's music sucks. Whatever happened to good music like Taylor Swift and Bruno Mars?" It's scary to think about but one day some 60 something year old woman is going to look back and favorably compare Justin Beiber to whatever is the most popular music of that time.
