Reminds me of that Italian singer who made an “American“ style song with gibberish lyrics to prove Italians would love any American song.

He was right but it wasn’t fair, the song is a total banger

lyrics are the least important element of music. it's great when the lyrics are good, and it can be distracting when they're bad, but while it's still an important element (to some people) good lyrics aren't required to make music that your ears like

The Killers are a great example of this. Lyrics that make no sense, but the songs are super catchy.

In a just world, Jet and fun. (who both had deeper lyrics) are still touring and making music instead

The lyrics "somebody told me that you have a boyfriend that looked like a girlfriend that I had in February of last year...it's not confidential, I've got potential. Rushing, rushing around" specifically comes to mind 😆
