Yeah, youth is a big deal. However, I notice that anyone who is reasonably mature is always quite impressed with people like, say, Marilu Henner, who manage to keep themselves in great job, and looking quite attractive, even as they age. So I guess, once you've sort of grown up, you start to appreciate people who can keep it together, physically, for so long.
But yeah, in the end, it's always the young singer who gets the REALLY interested people, as opposed to simple admiration. I think it's partially built into us: youth equals health. Youth equals energy. Most people desire youth. It's like an old guy who marries someone his daughter's age: "she makes me young!" Maybe, to some people, a younger person is desirable because A) They themselves are young, of B) They benefit from being around young people.
Interesting thoughts...I'm enjoying the whole concept.
