Do they come from the same place though? A sense of "Look, there's some fun (or at least fun as our fanbase understand it) to be had in this song!"

(My favourite ska punk cover is this Off By One's take on "Torn".)

Indie discos don't count as dancefloors, or as fun, or indeed as real proper places. They DISGUST ME!!!!!!!!!

indie in attitude tho, which is the indiest thing you can be. and contrasting that (deliberately?) with pop just heightens that

b-b-but there is music which IS a disgrace, and it is just a fact, and it has nothing to do with poptimism!
