"...a modest 1977 hit by singer and songwriter Jimmy Buffett that became an anthem for an entire life philosophy..."
Do none of these people listen to the lyrics? It's a nice, upbeat, catchy melody, for sure. But listen to the words, people. This is a song about a guy realizing that he has pissed, or is pissing, his life away. (I also get upset abut how a lot of people react to the album version of "Born In the USA.")

"Wasting away again" should be a clue.
