Do you have other examples like the song "Kung Fu Lighting", created a long time ago, then has sunk for a long time, and recently been dug and rehashed again, and fool many people it looks like a new one?

I mean a good one.

Okay this is bugging me. Have you been living under a rock? I'm pretty sure you mean Kung Fu Fighting and it never disappeared. I've seen it in commercials and referenced all over the place. Kung Fu Panda didn't rediscover it after it had been lost upon release.

Anyway, I'd say about twenty minutes is too old. I can only listen to songs by unsigned artists that are just freshly written in their garages. I can enjoy them for one or two listens, but I'm basically done after that.

I can only listen to music by bands with 1000 members (999 of them being interpretive dancers) that was recorded on a dictaphone in a black hole. I think music gets old 10 minutes before it was written and recorded. ****ing mainstream sheep.

You could always take the Vetinari stance, which is that the only true music is music that was written, but never played.

I think the best answer has been said by a few other members - "good music never gets old". That's the truth.

Music kind of sucks in general.
