Sticking to Whitesnake (cuz I am not dumb enough to engage you on Hendrix) It's an Archie/Peyton Manning situation.

Archie was great, Peyton was better, and the only reason Archie is still talked about today is because he's Peyton's dad, not because he's the better quarterback.

I like that analogy. It’s spot on. However, quarterbacks are a measurable quantity - i.e. once they retire their stats don’t change. I argue context has to play more into the criteria with songs. Take The Police’s “Every Breath You Take”. A hit on its own at the time. Then factor Diddy’s illegal sampling of it in “I’ll be Missing You” (an arguably bigger hit) and the subsequent fight between Sting and Diddy that made both songs more popular. A true one hit wonder is hard to pin down because even an unknown song can go viral for reasons no one can reasonably expect.

This is a better argument than any of the other scrubs here have come up with in the year+ we've been fighting this fight.

I knew you'd be fucking trouble when we brought you in...

I’m flattered. You’re too kind. The guy with all the antisemitic conspiracy theories (Opti?) from the old site seemed like a viable target but it’s hard to position against him while posing as a militant Iranian. The irony would just be too much.
