“Blurred Lines” is incredibly catchy (although it would be better without the offensive lyrics). And I said to myself either I have grown more tolerant of pop songs or pop songs are simply better than they were in the 80s and 90s.īecause I thoroughly enjoyed hearing “Gangnam Style” (perhaps a pop song where you don’t know the words is really the way to go) and “What Does the Fox Say?” (or perhaps when the words are so preposterous). They played “Dancing Queen” and “YMCA,” sure, but they also played a lot of recent big hits. We went rollerskating on Sunday and they played all kinds of pop hits.
