TD is ****ing awful The fact they included a pop song whose chorus consists of a Grammyless hack emphasising syllables. Such sloppy song-writing.
People praised that "sloppy song writing" so it's really not all that bad.
Quote:
A particular point of pleasure: The title of the song (“Teenage Dream”) is sung syncopated on the chorus, but straight on the bridge. Compare the two in your head. Do you hear that? How brilliant. The title of the song is rhythmically weighted two ways—it’s like a flank attack. Two sides of the same face. You WILL remember the name of this song.
Maybe if you let me be your lover
Maybe if you tried then I would not bother
I've been hating everything, everything that could have been
Could have been my anything, now everything's embarrassing
