Whatever Happened To Escapism? 'Cause We Could Use Some Now
-
It's science: A study has determined that pop songs have gotten sadder in the last 30 years. They assigned a "happiness index" to songs that hit the U.K. charts (though it was an American study) and determined that your upbeat Wham! songs have been supplanted by Sam Smith moaning. Weirdly enough, though, they also noted that songs are becoming more danceable and "party-like," which might mean that we're just going to boogie our way to the Apocalypse. (AP via Tampa Bay Times)
