Not all people listen to music the same way. Some people listen to it passively; letting the notes and lyrics wash over them without thinking too deeply about what the song is communicating or why it was written. Others will listen intently and dissect any given part of it. Some may not listen to music much at all. A good amount of music, pop music in particular, is written in a mindset of the more mindless listeners. With lyrics not meant to entice deep emotions. Personally, I enjoy music that I have to think about; music that has a meaning. I do understand the intention of pop music. The world nowadays moves so fast and if you aren’t constantly running to keep up, you can very easily fall behind. People don’t always take the time to stop and smell the roses. Pop music has turned into more of white noise and a means of making money. Artists can say anything over a catchy beat and they will still have a decent demographic.

"(Pop music) Has minimal song structure." Avery LaValle, UNT freshman.
"(Pop music) is very repetitive. They all mean the same thing. You can tell very easily when a song is made for money. The lyrics don't take much thought and the only thing they really have going for them is that they are catchy and have good beats." Anne Talbot, UNT freshman.

Oh, girl, I hope you don’t think that I'm rude,
When I tell you that I love you, boo
I also hope that you don’t see through,
This cleverly constructed ruse,
Designed by a marketing team,
Cashing in on puberty and low self-esteem and girls desperate need to feel love,
America says we love a chorus
But don’t get complicated and bore us,
Though meaning might be missin'
We need to know the words after just one listen so,
Repeat stuff, repeat stuff, repeat stuff x4
