Alright. This is a rant, so be warned.
Does anyone else hate popular music? By "popular music", I mean the songs that are played ad nauseum (that means until it makes you want to vomit) over and over and over and over and over. And over and over and over and over. And over. And over. Again and again. For literally years without stopping. Everytime you come into work or are out running errands you hear it somewhere.
Let's name some names. I'm talking about songs like "Despacito" (which I really hate), "Perfect" and "Shape of You" by Ed Sheeran. "Hello" by Adele. "Let Her Go" by Passenger. And many others.
The thing is, these songs would be tolerable in moderation. They're not terrible songs, just mediocre. Sure, play them once or twice, no problem. Then let's hear something else. There's a million other choices out there. So many genres to choose from, so many interesting bands and artists. So much interesting variety out there. But no. Fuck 99.9% of all other types of music. Instead, let's play the same emotional, vacuous drivel 24/7 until it numbs the listener's brain into a comatose state. Really can't stand it.
I think it's mainly because most people don't like new music. New music challenges the intellect. Instead, most people want to feel that same warm, fuzzy emotion that popular songs make them feel.
I think I will buy some Bose Quiet Comfort Headphones for the office.
Alright, rant over.
