Being popular rarely means something is the "best". It's more a sign it appeals to the lowest common denominator.

Unless you're Tom Waits

Haha I actually made this note because of him. Nobody I know IRL could name a song by him. You never hear him on the radio or in media. But he is so good.

I suppose I only talk to like people 5 irl & they all know him... so that's probably a fair point.

Consider

The number of people who know the song WAP by Cardi B

vs

The number of people who know Tom Waits

😮‍💨🤷‍♂️

It's snowing right now. I'm baking cookies & swapping Tom Waits songs with strangers on the internet. I don't want to think about that 🥴🤣

😂

Best version of "God's Away on Business":

That's awesome 😂

I always question now when a pattern of content keep pushing in my feed — not only in one platform but different platforms. question always bcoz fame does not happen overnight.
