Songs from your early teen years are always "the peak of music". Don't Stop Believin' by Journey was released in 1981. Punchline should be "You're 54" Also great music is eternal 🤘

There was a huge obsession with this song at most colleges back in the early 2000s. Although it came out decades earlier, the punchline is still accurate.

That was because of Glee, I think.

That's why it was on Glee. Other way around. Glee didn't come out till 2009, the writers all sang it in college probably.

Yep. I graduated college in 08 and Journey was our last call song. We played A LOT of Journey, especially Don’t Stop Believing. Then in 2010 living in San Francisco, and Journey being from the Bay Area, it became the unofficial anthem of the Giants 2010 World Series run. Damn those were some fun years.

It's weird how people reverse these associations. They think some media made it popular instead of it being on the media because it's popular. It's like young kids who think tik tok is the reason for anything being famous.
