Good grief, you must have like 2 albums to listen to then. Or bubble gum rock. Nearly all good music with lyrical content is some form of expression by the artist, and that inevitably takes stances on the issue they're signing about (instantly making their song and stance 'political' in 2023). You're feeding into the very thing you're supposedly trying to avoid (shelter yourself from) -- hyper-whatever-ism. You're just aspiring to a new and arbitrary 'hyper-whatever-ism'.

Randy Newman is a hard pass for me, just because the music hasn't aged well and he doesn't "do anything for me". We're allowed to have tastes and it doesn't have to be political. AWB are the clear winners of this round, IMHO of course.
I wasn't shilling for Randy Newman. I was just explaining the album for those that don't know it. There is no shame in not liking an artist, popular or not. It's all personal preference. There are many artists and/or songs that people love that I hate. Nothing you can say will make me like their stuff. Not a big deal. That's why it's great that these Quadio 4 packs are all over the map in their genres. You don't have to buy any of them, or all of them. It's no disgrace to think something sucks!
