So by by non-challenging we're thinking more of the mass produced, stamped and sealed, auto-tune flattened, Warhol ideal come true type of songs?  Those ones are all shit.

Haha.  I want to know more of this Andy Warhol connection.  I know he produced an album for the Velvet Underground, which is challenging to the point of painful at times.

Yeah, I'm not sure why we're equating Warhol with all this.

Didn't he paint commonplace commercial items like Campbell's Soup? I can see the connection, even if it involves misunderstanding what he was trying to do.

Yeah, the whole pop art thing.  Seems a pretty loose connection as he would likely have absolutely no use for the songs Ian is talking about.

Maybe if he were a musician instead, he'd have imitated those crap songs in some wry manner? (Didn't Jewel attempt to wryly imitate teenybopper pop once? It still sucked.)
