Pop Music's Lost Joy: Why Modern Hits Lack Punch

Description

Dont Stop Me Now and other classic pop songs evoke strong emotions due to their complex melodies and personal significance. However, recent research shows that modern pop songs have simplified melodies, lacking the autobiographical emotional triggers that make songs memorable. The Black Eyed Peas I Got A Feelin and Flo Ridas Good Feeling are exceptions, but overall, pop music has become more minimalist, leading to a decline in emotional impact. This shift is partly due to cultural changes and the overwhelming amount of music available today.
