Free Music Notes for Mmm Bop [IMPORT]
Free Music Review: Not unpleasant, but just tuneless pop
Hit: 2 Stars
In the days when right-wing ex-Liberal Pauline Hanson's One Nation Party gathered headlines, a band ironically called Hanson dominated the charts in Australia with this single, which still reminds me of the time when I first discovered the real political alternative to Liberal and Labour was not One Nation's racism but revolutionary socialism.
Turning to "Mmm Bop" itself, though at the time I listened endlessly to commercial music from my childhood, I always thought much of the funk/rap/r'n'b coming onto commercial airwaves in the late 1990s could only be described as tuneless and totally lacking in melody: even the vocalists lacked any sort of talent. In spite of that, "Mmm Bop" is not altogether an unpleasant listen: it is just that there is nothing extraordinary to even carry the songs to any sort of special level or some really good singing as could be heard on radio in my own childhood.
Indeed, the tunelessness of "Mmm Bop" really is rather grating and it is clear that it took a great deal of advertising to get this and other commercial music so high on the charts.
