TBF “Seventeen” was a hit song in the very late 80’s. Not that I’m arguing that it was okay, but there was a skeevy undercurrent to American culture in that era.
Given the vintage of the song and the demographics of current politics, you know there’s gotta be a significant overlap between the people who think everyone makes too big a deal over grown men singing about lusting over minors, and people who get frothy over “grooming.”

“Classic rock” as a general category is so fucking rotten, there’s a shocking amount of creeper shit. Also this top comment on the video:
“rhyming about being horny for a child is so genius!!”
“Fun” fact: David Bowie, Jimmy Page and Mick Jagger all had sex with the same teenage girl.
Holy fucking shit the comments on that video

Lest we forget “Christine Sixteen” by Kiss…
Gene Simmons totally seems like the type that would hit on teenagers well into his 50’s
