This is like the third time I heard Q play INXS. They don't play it much, and when they do its only "never tear us apart" Is INXS considered classic rock?

Over the last 4 weeks or so, they've been playing more 80s rocks, and I, for one, really enjoys it. I've also heard "What you need" by INXS.

And really, is U2 or The Police classic rock?

Q has been playing some of the songs & artists that they use to play back in their early years, as well as new stuff from those same artists.
Who put the "classic" in classic rock?
If you can answer that question definitively, then you can probably also tell us who it was that put the ram in the ram-a-lam-a-ding-dong.
There’s little agreement on the definition of rock, much less the more specialized genre of classic rock. Rock 'n' roll appears in many dictionaries, but its definitions vary substantially.
It's important to make a distinction between classic rock and oldies. Classic rock grew out of a radio format that used to be called AOR -- Album Oriented Rock. Classic rock describes entire albums, whereas the oldies genre encompasses primarily pop singles that were commercially successful.

What makes classic rock classic?


Is it the artist? Not automatically. While a group or artist may have released rock albums in the '70s, there’s no automatic guarantee that everything they ever recorded, or will record, is automatically classic.
Is it radio airplay and record sales? Not exclusively. In 1979, The Knack had the top-selling single of the year, "My Sharona", from an album that went platinum in less than two months. After two more albums that were received far less enthusiastically, the group disbanded in the early '80s.
Is it a particular musical style or lyric theme? Not so much. Led Zeppelin and The Beatles both recorded classic rock albums, but they hardly performed the same kind of music, or had the same musical style.

Who started it?


Originally, the term was coined to define a radio format that featured rock music primarily from the 1970s. Later, the format was expanded to include some '60s and even '50s rock. Today, you’ll even hear grunge, punk, and '80s hair bands on classic rock radio stations.
Perhaps the best answer to the question lies in the word classic. Virtually every available dictionary definition of classic includes a key test. The most telling aspect of the adjective is that it describes something about which the same opinion has stood over a long period of time. People listen to it, and feel the same way about it today as they did when it was first recorded.
