I guess Wade Goodwyn thinks he's the height of sophistication, comparing accordion music to a disease. Yuck yuck yuck!

I estimate the 90% of today's popular music deals with white men feeling sorry for themselves. Another 7% is black men feeling sorry for themselves. The remaining 3% is shared among the rest of us.

I'm not surprised that when NPR encounters music which is for happiness, for sharing, for dancing, for having a good time and few beers, that it just doesn't know what to say.

And how are they going to cope when they learn that cupcakes are making a big comeback?
