The funniest thing about her is that she definitely thinks she’s not the dried-up husk of a soul that she actually is, inside and out.

Maybe it's not that important to this discussion, but I think it was always Rock and (or 'n') Roll music until roughly the time long-form FM's rise to prominence ca. 1967. "Rock Music" was perhaps not very often used as a term until maybe the late 60s or early 70s.
