A classic song has to have at least one of these distinguished qualities:
- A beat/melody that you fall in love with instantly, not one of those grow on you jump-offs.
- The coming together of two or more legendary or current and prominent performers.
- No matter how old the song gets it remains one of your most played jawns.
- And the most important quality of them all, when the song comes on everyone within earshot knows and spits/sings every word/adlib.
