I vividly remember an episode of Talk of the Nation with Ray Suarez devoted to the swing/lounge revival, and the guy who wrote "Buckle Down Winsocki" back in the early 40s called in with instructions on how to make a good martini. He then said it was great how kids were getting into this music again, because for a while there, it seemed like popular music was all about shock tactics. He speculated on the process of forming a rock band: "How can we get ourselves attention, oh, I know, let's look in the dictionary and name ourselves after some sort of tropical disease..." Suarez tried to cut him off, but he wasn't having any of it.
