Recently, something utterly remarkable happened in the pop music world.
This song hit #1 on the national music charts.
One of the most stereotypical hipster things I've ever heard.
And you know what? I'm actually happy with this development. Does this mean that the public is FINALLY getting tired of awful shallow club shit and vapid teen pop stars? Oh god I really fucking hope so.
I don't even particularly like the song that much, and yet I still find myself hoping that this is a sign of things to come. Fucking ANYTHING would be a welcome change from the awful corporate-manufactured sludge that we've suffered through for the past decade.
Because mediocre is a lot better than mind-numbingly awful.
