I'd be down with pop music if it weren't too simplistic. I've admitted a few times to liking Lights, but that's really it. My mom doesn't get why I can't like bruno mars much to her chagrin, but sooth be said, it feels empty to me. I have this craving for a degree of complexity or subtlety in music and modern electronic pop just seems to be a bit too in-your-face and basic to me. a synth riff, a vocal line in the spotlight and a drum machine just isn't satisfying.
though admittedly, I'm a closet fan of the cheesiest 80's schlock out there. YOU SPIN ME RIGHT ROUND BABY RIGHT ROUND LIKE A RECORD PLAYER
