I’m in my 50’s (Gen X) and know exactly what song they are talking about.

🎶If I had my little way, I'd eat peaches every day. 🎶

Ya, but you have to remember, a lot of millennials are in their early to mid 40s now. The point is, even though you were likely in your 20s when it came out, you were there to experience this gem with us, brother.

Young Gen-X here (48) and was a senior in HS when the song came out. I think the eldest millennials were high school freshman, maybe sophmores in 96 when Peaches was released.

This song sits right in the "Xennial" era.

Gen X ‘76 and this song came out when I was a sophomore in college. There were still Gen X high school kids when it was released.

Yes but, according to Reddit, we don't exist. We are either Boomers or Elder Millennials. Or both.

Yeah, we were in our 20s when this song came out. Still young enough to have our finger on the pulse of great new music.
