It’s my opinion that popularity is an indicator of whether the song is inane or not; it must be popular because it’s appealing in some way.
Music is expression, not junk food, your analogy is invalid, you prove no point. Your insistence does not change the fact that people like this song because they enjoy its expression.
When it comes to the arts, it is not for you or any other individual to dictate what is good & what is bad. I find it hard to believe that there is any form of art that is truly inane,
because art is expression!
Blah Blah Blah has meaning for those that enjoy it.
