Getting Back Into Braille Pt. 1
Person a- What a bad song that is.
Person b- What's that you said? That's a bad song? But it's not a bad song. It's just that you don't like pop. That's just good honest pop. Listen to it. There's nothing pretentious about it- it's pop through and through, nothing else. That's the difference between you and me- I can appreciate a good pop track and you've never understood pop. If you put that pop song on a stereo, I'd enjoy it, because it's pop and I've always liked pop. Pop music has always been successful because it's never been anything other than pop. You don't like enough pop, so get off your high horse, get your feet on the pop moral high ground, and start listening to honest pop. And don't turn your nose up at pop, because you don't have a nose for pop. I've always understood pop- great honest pop, it forms the basic of any good pop song. You say "bad song", but I say "pop", just keep the pop coming. All the great composers would like pop you know, if Schubert had been around now he wouldn't like your music, he'd like pop, because pop can be clever, but not so clever that it stops being pop. Pop composers are the smartest people there are, just like classical music was pop back in the old days, they're both the same. It's all great pop. In a lot of ways Steps are better than Mozart, it's more honest, it's all pop and nothing else and Mozart would probably be the first to hold his hands up and say "I admit it, they've made a better pop song". He'd have a lot of time for good pop. The sooner you like good pop, the sooner we can have a chat about pop, even though you've never understood the genius of a pop song. But I agree it's quite difficult to appreciate the genius of a pop song, but I can definitely do that.

I used to be just like you, I'd listen to weird stuff and think it was clever because it wasn't pop.
