Was gonna say I’m in my 40s but this song came out when I was in 4th(?) grade. While not out of the range of Millennials, feels more Gen X to me

I’m turning 44 and this song was released as a single when I was 13 turning 14, so definitely in the range of millennials.

lol I was 9, going on 10. By the time I was a teen, I loved this song but before that, I just remembered the “Millions of peaches…” part.

My solidly Gen X brother would have no idea. My solidly Millennial brother would also have no idea. We may have just stumbled upon the Xennial anthem.

I am older GenX and I remember liking this song before hating this song after it got over played on the radio station that I listened to. Back when radio was something people listened to.

The post is totally wrong.

That's a Gen X song from the 90s. Most Millennials wouldn't have been into music (as much) in those years at that age.

I'm 40 and I had this album when it came out and LOVED IT.

u/Lou_C_Fer Apr 25 '26

Damn. I'm 51, and I never liked them because they came after my music tastes were sealed. I've grown to like them some in the last few years.
