    Songs that will always be good are like:

    Son of a Preacher Man - Dusty Springfield

    Just a Day - Feeder

    Or do you mean songs that will always sound new? That’s a harder one.

      No, no, I mean songs that stand the test of time because they’re so catchy. “Son of a Preacher Man” is definitely one of those songs. I actually hadn’t heard “Just a Day” by Feeder before. Probably because alternative rock was never really my thing - but I can see, or rather hear, the timelessness in this one too :)

        Thanks for clarifying because very little music is actually timeless. Electric guitar or syths date it immediately. Maybe some digiredoo or drums and vocals only.

      Just a day is such a period piece. The slight fuzziness of a microphone you got from poundland and have lost the little foam bit already but youre still recording with it on the recorder that comes with XP
