I can't think of a song that would suffer more from being hailed as a classic

[koganbot]

"I can't think of a song that would suffer more from being hailed as a classic, would be more utterly destroyed by piety and reverence, fidgeting children around the world dreading its opening chord and the hush in the room that follows, listeners to the right and left being deeply moved. An alienation factory under construction, and there's nothing in the song to resist it."

But how much of that - if any - is the song's fault, or the performer's? What do you think?

Song title and commentary.

(By "song" I mean "track" here.)
