Yes, you are frickin' old, geezer...

Here are 15 songs that are 25 this year. In some respects, some seem that old. In others, they do not. Maybe I just hate knowing I'm that old.

I have every single one of those songs on my Ipod.

Although Don't Worry be happy gets skipped a lot.

To put it into perspective, these songs to today's kids are like songs from the late 50's were to me when I started getting into music. Ouch.

It hurts more when you realize kids born in 1992 can legally drink.

Interesting that a majority of those songs are frat party anthems.

Yeah this seems odd to me and I was born in 90 (which I realize is blasphemous for most people on the boards).

Welcome to the club!

It really hit home a few years ago when I was flipping through the channels during halftime of a game and came across a concert on PBS. Broadway superstar Patti Lupone was ending her show with "a classic song".

I wanted to hear what she thought was a classic. Then she slugged me with a 2x4 between my eyes. She sang "Time After Time".

I used to share a girl with the bass player of The Hooters. We all went to the same clubs before they were famous.

"I Left My Heart in SF". "As Time Goes By", etc. are classics. It killed me to think a song written by a buddy's bar band could be a "classic".

Welcome to old age boys and girls.

"I used to share a girl with the bass player of The Hooters."

This is my favorite sentence.
