It's basically marketers sitting around saying "O.K., what age makes money now, and what songs will remind them of their youth so they will buy our product?"

i.e. "Rock n' Roll" by Led Zeppelin being pimped to sell Caddys.

IT'S BEEN A LONG TIME SINCE I ROCK N' ROLLED
IT'S BEEN A LONG TIME SINCE I GOT DOWN AND STROLLED
OH LET ME GET BACK LET ME GET BACK LET ME GET BACK
LIVING BABY WHERE I COME FROM

IT'S BEEN A LONG TIME BEEN A LONG TIME BEEN A LONG LONELY LONELY LONELY LONELY LONELY TIME

IT'S BEEN A LONG TIME SINCE I TALKED OF LOVE
I KICK OUT THE TUNES WITH THE LIKE OF YOUR LOVE
CARRY ME BACK CARRY ME BACK CARRY ME BACK
BABY WHERE I COME FROM

IT'S BEEN A LONG TIME BEEN A LONG TIME BEEN A LONG LONELY LONELY LONELY LONELY LONELY TIME

solo

OH YEA OPEN YOUR ARMS OPEN YOUR ARMS OPEN YOUR ARMS

IT'S BEEN A LONG TIME BEEN A LONG TIME BEEN A LONG LONELY LONELY LONELY LONELY LONELY TIME




YEA YEA YEA YEA

Try the version by Ann and Nancy Wilson of Heart. I'm not sure if it's on their just-released album or not, but it's on a couple of their Greatest Hits compilations.
