I especially loathed how he tossed in Nina Simone when discussing What's the World Coming To, failed to make a substantial point, and then attempted to tie her back into the review at the end, failing miserably, and then ending it on a cliched "best pop songwriters today" note. It read like something an "intellectual" would have written into Teen Beat magazine. Gushing at it's worst.

I definitely see where you're coming from... but as a pseudo music aficionado myself, I dug it!
