Pop songs are catchy. They are scientifically engineered to have a catchy hook that gets in your head and refuses to leave. It can drive you crazy. It’s not so bad when you have a song by the Beatles or the Beastie Boys stuck in your head, but getting a shitty song stuck in your head is the main cause of suicide. I don’t have the stats to back up that statement, but I feel like everyone should be aware of the dangers of being driven to death by meaningless lyrics set to three simple chords.
Getting a shitty song stuck in your head is bad, but it gets worse. Singing that shitty song out loud is pretty terrible. Especially if you’re as tone-deaf as I am. It’s just as embarrassing to be singing Justin Bieber. Then you have to defend yourself and simultaneously explain how you knew that song in the first place, “I don’t even know who Justice Beaver is, I swear!”
