In 1970, I was dismayed when I learned that “American Woman” by the Guess Who was sitting on top of the Billboard Hot 100. I was mystified as to why any patriotic American would buy that record.
Many people don’t really pay much attention to lyrics. It’s the melody that really counts.
Watching a thing on the ‘80s and how many girls - HS teens - didn’t know what “Frankie Say” meant, or “Relax” meant - well, that just confirmed it for me. People don’t care much about lyrics. Always secondary to the tune.
Guess yer no Joey ****head Kiegler and DOA Fan ;)
