but back in the real world i find that my mates and i all like music because we like it
But this is exactly the kind of statement that my column has been trying to challenge from day one. And if any of you guys find yourself drawn to making such an affirmation yourselves ("we like music 'cause we like it"), my column is meant to challenge you as well.
Yes! Show your working, everyone. Why is Song A on 10x repeat whilst Song B by the same artist is hovering on the delete list from your hard drive? Lyrics remind you of summer? More energetic drum beat? Amazing use of Aretha Franklin sample? Plodding unambitious chord changes? Awooga sirens making your brain cells do a pancake-flip? ENQUIRING MINDS MUST KNOW!
