A reflection on the young.

Like a month ago when I came home at night, the (engineering student) college kids in the house next to me were having some basement party with a band playing "Smells Like Teen Spirit," and then like a week ago when I was doing some rote presentation prep work, I was listening to Madonna's "Music" album, and I got to thinking about the kids in the front house, and how they were probably infants when that song came out in the early 2000s. I do wonder now what those songs sound like to them; they probably have an old and perhaps retro chic and even slightly ironic feel, like the Bee Gees do to me (the Bee Gees were big like a few years right before I was born). To hear through the ears of the young!
