If everyone plays your music when you're 25, you're hot and everyone is jealous. If everyone plays your music (for the first time) when you're 45, you're established and everyone's suspicious. If everyone plays your music (for the first time) when you're 65, you're discovered and everyone is sentimental. And if everyone plays your music (for the first time) after you're dead, you're ahead of your time and everyone thinks it tragic. Go figure.
