Why? Why are these things happening? Are we being punished? Charlie Puth, a kid I like in the new pop biz, has issued a record with the same title and refrain as a Chicago hit from 40 years ago. Does he not listen to the radio? Does no one say to him, this is a bad idea? On top of that, he’s fashioned it as an acappella thing with BoyzIIMen– it sounds like people being strangled on The Andy Williams Show. To make matters worse, they’ve issued this during a blizzard. A cyclone. A polar vortex. Please, is this fair?
We must now pray the Justin Timberlake song is GREAT. If it isn’t, can we make sense of this world again?
