I don't really have a wish that pop would sound like any particular thing at all. After all, there's a huge variety of pop out there, so there's bound to be some stuff I like and some stuff I don't.

My beef with pop is, not what it is or isn't, but what is popular. Let's just say I would have a higher regard for humanity (or, at least their musical tastes ) if the most popular music out there was complex and challenging, musically. Instead, the most popular stuff tends to be pretty simple (maybe even simplistic) musically.

In my fantasy world Centipede Hz would still be on the charts, like Adele's or the Imagine Dragon's 2011/12 albums still are. And the video below would have, like, 337 million views instead of 337K.



Instead, we get the following video with over 215 million views after just 4 months!



Now, don't get me wrong, I think Taylor Swift has a lot of talent, and her songs are decent. But they're still rather conventional, which is a bit disappointing.
