        Popularity+time. It is a fairly simple equation. They didn’t call Led Zeppelin, The Who etc. classic rock when they first came out either, it only happened with time.

        Every piece of popular rock music will become classic rock with time.

        We don’t have to. If one social group defines it differently then another social group it’s not really a big deal.
