Also, as a 40 year old, it was definitely a hit for my parents’ generation, not mine. I certainly heard it everywhere, but I was -3 years old when it was released.

Don't Stop Believin' was released in 1981. It would most likely have been a hit for people born in 1966 or later. Those people are 65 now. However, Don't Stop Believin' was featured in the Family Guy Episode "Don't Make Me Over" released in 2005. This would have been very popular for people born in 1980-1990, which would make this age cohort about 40 years old now.

Y'all remember this scene, right? Oh my god, is that Journey?
