I just went through the top 10 songs on iTunes, and I'm torn between laughing out loud and crying.  I know many people like music that is stupid, shallow, and repetitive, but to actually hear these shakes my hope in humanity.  It seems like it's getting worse.


Why?

I actually quite enjoy "Pumped Up Kicks." It's an incredibly clever and ironic view of society.
And god dammit it's catchy.

Something that didn't make me want to die. I guess I was wrong.

I don't think it ever actually got there.  It was the goal though.

Your desire to die is entirely on you.

But you deem it important enough to repeatedly insult the person who made the thread.

Oh cool, The Head and the Heart made one of the top 100 albums.

97 is respectable.

But yeah, iTunes is going to have popular music. That's how it... works.

Well, when you make a thread that is both completely pointless and betrays your shocking elitism/arrogance/pretentiousness...

Are you referring to the band? I can't find anything with the words head and heart on that page. If you are, HIPSTER.

I'm not a hipster, Horny.

I mean Herny.

That's me.  I'm glad you displayed your limitless kindness and maturity by your posts on this thread.

That is not...The Head and the Heart? Tanner, Wikipedia describes them as indie folk-pop and they opened for Vampire Weekend, that is enough for me. 

I actually kind of like the Mumford and Sons song that says f**k, but that's only because I'm emo.

You're going to need to try harder than that if you want your sarcasm to affect me (or anyone else, really).
