Maybe because it was one of the most important records in rock and roll history, the first rock and roll record to be a number one national hit in America, or any other country.

My son remembers requesting this song from a live band in Germany 20 years ago and now his son (16 months old) is enjoying this song very much.

I requested it and got it played by the DJ at our town's 4th of July Fireworks thing a few years ago. They had a DJ there for a couple of hours until it got dark.
