Absolutely, man. Modern pop is basically verse, chorus, repeat. No adding instruments slowly for a crescendo anymore in most cases. you rarely hear specials. Songs are 2mins long. Most lyrics are a cringy self-celebration mess. Brave artists who swing for the fences and question our present and future are kept in the mud. The whole concept of music=art is disappearing in broad daylight and in our minds. Bah!...
Let's end on a positive note - Happy Christmas y'all!
