Isn't that what is so great about music? So much to choose from and so many artists getting the opportunity to put their emotions out there. I think there is no bad music (Gansta cRap isn't music so is eliminated from my viewpoint). There are some songs I enjoy that are decidedly without much talent, insightfulness, or relatable social import. But I like them. I don't require to know why they appeal to me, they just do. That's my opinion.

It's often said a that a great group is greater than the sum of it's parts; I get this with Zeppelin. Fleetwood Mac and The Beetles.
The problem I haave with Toto is that they are less than the sum of their parts; all extremely accomplished session musicicians who managed to turn out turgid, rather plodding tunes.
Their songs, eg Africa, are almost memes but because they are so unremarkable. It's a nice humalong but I can't understand how you could be moved by it?
