Seems dismissively apt but then turns out one persistingly cool aspect of "corn" is its pedestrian grasping and flailing for the transcendence in "Stairway to Heaven." Like that.
Hammer of the Gods was the first rock book I ever read, and funnily enough, was where I first learned about Robert Johnson. It’s been decades since I last looked at it, but from what I remember, there was a ridiculous amount of emphasis on the “squeeze my lemon” lyric, as if that were a crucially important thing for you to know about him.
Have you seen or heard Dread Zeppelin? I don't think they ever recorded "Stairway" but they were pretty weird and kind of fun, in a strange , pathetic way.
"it's moved from transcendence to pure corn"

Stairway is one of those songs where if it’s your favorite or least favorite song you never need to hear it again
