Ask the hipsters, without context, what a "B-side" was. Crickets.
As I still consider myself a "youngster", I can't in good conscience answer you what a "B-side" is.
Starting to feel old though ... [:'(]
It's the opposite of the A-side. [:)]
A 45 RPM record had one song on each of two sides. A-side, B-side. The A-side was the "hit", or what the record company hoped would be the hit. The B-side was filler. But music history is replete with B-sides that became hits, even huge ones.
Sorry if I didn't manage to get through - being 52 yo with a couple of LP players behind me, I know perfectly well what the A- & B-side was, but I don't want to admit that [:D]
Anyway, kudos to you for the flawless explanation though [;)]
