i feel like if you're known to be into music that's either associated with a sense of elitism or a strong DIY/underground scene, there's a weird expectation also from outsiders to that scene, that if an artist has a song that's disproportionately more popular than others, that you'd denounce that song as like a low moment from that artist
and honestly? nah fuck that. Tubthumping is an iconic evergreen banger. Our House is an iconic evergreen banger. Männer sind Schweine is an iconic evergreen banger. There's a reason these songs caught on and I am not immune to a good pop song
