Since I started playing professionally at 12, I know many songs that I shouldn't know for someone my age. For example, Cherry Pink and Apple Blossom White was huge, but disappeared quickly.

However, I think the jazz standards survive between generations. The increasingly few people who follow jazz will mostly recognize the full range. For other genres, I don't know if that is true. Who ya gonna ask?
