Why is music from the 60s and 70s still 'dadrock' when the people referred to as dads are starting to die from old age much like the artists who were active in those decades? Shouldn't the term be something along the lines of grandpa-rock, pensioner rock, corpse rock etc.?
all that matters is that its old and irrelevant

Because people don't feel comfortable calling the music they listened to when they were teenagers dad rock even when they're now old enough to be dads.
Corpserockcore is too confusing hyphen full stops
My dad is 60 and he grew up with that music
1966 - 1978 dad rock
1979 - 1991 decent rock
1992 - 2002 golden age of rock music

It's more like mompiano tbhonestò
its almost like the term dad rock is a passive aggressive nonsense made up by hipsters with daddy issues who dont realize one day they will be old and completely discounting a form of music because daddy doesnt love you is stupid

You don't say.
Here's the thing about Freddie. The man had some serious pipes. He had a 4 octave range and he excelled in any octave. He wrote brilliant songs. And his stage presence was only matched by Adolf Hitler. Seriously, watch them play Radio Gaga at Live Aid and then watch a video of the Nuremburg rallies. We had better thank our lucky stars Freddie didn't go into politics or he would have taken over the world. But Queen as a whole had a brilliant dynamic. It wasn't just the Freddie Mercury backup band. They all made huge creative contributions to what made Queen what it is. Yes, Freddie wrore Somebody to Love, Killer Queen, and Bohemian Rhapsody, but Brian May wrote We Will Rock You, Save Me, and Fat Bottom Girls, John Deacon wrote I Want to Break Free, Another One Bites the Dust, and You're my Best Friend, and Roger Taylor wrote Radio Gaga and It's a Kind of Magic. Other bands like Nirvana for instance were not like that. Nirvana was basically just the Kurt Cobain backup band. Queen was this perfect storm of legendary talent, and Freddie was the face of it all, the delicious cherry on top of an already delicious sundae. He was the ambassador that allowed the amazing talent of combo that was Queen to be brought into our lives. He was the prism that focused the lazer beams from the brains of Roger, Brian, and John, and amplified them until they were powerful enough to blow our minds out through our ear holes. Yes, he was the most incredible front man who ever lived, hands down.
