I've mentioned in some of my posts about how much I enjoy music, and how my musical tastes cover such a huge spectrum of varieties.
And sometimes that includes songs that are just plain sappy and/or kitschy.
Here's a great example of such - from 2006, "Nothing in this world" from Paris Hilton.
Go ahead, roll your eyes. But it is a happy go lucky pop tune. To me it is catchy and just has a (to me) infectious groove to it. Sometimes (again in my opinion) a good song can just be a bubble gum sweet bouncy song. Sure you could gloss over this song and say it is vapid and not "deep" or "meaningful", but sometimes life's guilty pleasures are just simple and enjoyable.
But for the record - I've never followed fads, trends or tried to be "something" I'm not. I've always been the person I wanted to be, and though that might not be an opinion shared by many, who really cares? Is the video for the song salacious? Yes. Is it a tad creepy? Um, maybe. Does it have a very often used theme ("loser" get the girl of his "dreams")? Yes, but it goes well with the song.
Now I am sure some may say, "Why this is such a sexist video, it plays on Paris' sexuality...blah blah.." To which I say, "compared to what is put out nowadays this is extremely tame. So get over yourself, and attack something that truly is offensive or important in this world. For me, it's just a fun video".
Oh and while I'm at it - another fun pop song from Paris is her song, "I Need You"😁
