Overheard on the Way to School

Conversations on the way to school are often excellent sources of either great insight or great hilarity. This morning, it was the latter...
We're all in the car on the way to school, and the kids hear a song on the radio that piques their interest.
Claire: Turn it up, dad. We like this song.
Dad: What song is it?
Nicky: I don't know, but it sounds cool.
Dad (recognizing it as a song from the 1980's by Larry Gowan): You guys like this song? This song is ancient!
Nicky: Is it from way back in the 1990's?
Dad: It's even older! It's from the 80's!!!
(Brief pause, while the kids contemplate what sort of strange primeval time might be denoted by this term...)
Claire: So, is this guy dead now?
