I did, of course; as did many Boomer awakened guys! (Gen Xers, in general, maybe not?)
The song I made the video for (and bought the single for then) came out when I was 16, and Suzanne also. I was 19 when I first heard and enjoyed Save the Country. Plus, Laura Nyro's first hit single (which I knew and liked well of course) dates from the same year as the other two.
Plus it doesn't matter how old you are when you hear a song. A song is a song; music is music. As was said on a bootleg album by The Who I bought: "It's in the vinyl!"
It IS possible (if apparently unlikely) that someone can appreciate a song I post (or someone else posts) that you haven't (or someone hasn't) heard before, or isn't in a genre you are used to. Even YOU, Mr. Rags! Think about that. Quite a concept!
Something else that I notice. Your taste has not changed since you were a teenager. You like the same kinda stuff!

No, I didn't forget
