Default NPR: "The Songs We Should Retire"

I saw this story on NPR today, which originally ran in October, 2017:

Encore Episode: Hallelujah! The Songs We Should Retire

This struck me as going too far, and being a bit snobbish, and I felt sorry for the artists named in the article, even though they have presumably raked in a gob-load of money from royalties.

Who are NPR critics (or anyone) to decide (or at least suggest) what should no longer be heard?

I am surprised that this kind of story would be done by NPR.

Or am I overreacting? I realise that the article doesn't carry any official "weight", but still...
