Would you rather have your penis bitten by a baby crocodile, or eat a delicious bowl of oatmeal?

I'm amazed that the indie rock tropes annoy trag, but the bro country tropes compel him

Re: the War on Drugs song, I like the way the synth melody interacts with the lead guitar near the end, creates some real nice sounds

I also struggle with them, mostly because of the singing.. but I can appreciate some aspects of their music sometimes

All the songs I know of theirs are bad. I guess if I had to say something nice I'd say that their ripoff of Pachelbel's Canon in D is more transparent than most.

Not at all. I respect your opinion and glad you enjoy the war on drugs.

I can’t really divorce music from the production choices, and when I listen to TWOD, I hear a deluge of recent indie tropes just slathered on top of each other; but at the heart of it is, to my ears, a very forgettable song. I find nothing interesting about this song.

The Hayes song, at least to me, offers some commercial and formulaic choices that I can appreciate in a weird sort of way. The whole bro country thing is an interesting phenomenon to me, even if I hate every song I’ve heard from the genre. But the crisp, squashed production, the sampled drums, the dumb hook: I can kind of appreciate this stuff, and most vapid pop music, as a sort of commercial jig saw puzzle. When everything clicks together — the song, the production, the video, the artist’s brand identity — I can kind of step back and say “hey, not a bad effort at connecting with a particular market segment.”

I totally respect your alternative opinion and understand why none of this might make sense to you.

You're an idiot and you should feel bad about yourself.

It’s been on the “family dance party” playlist we use to get our daughter jumping around for over two years. I hear it at least once a week, sometimes five times. Not even remotely sick of it yet. Lots to enjoy about this song.
