HI Steven, thanks for the comments and the recommendations. More on those in a sec.

Yeah, it's inevitable that part of the discussion considers how good or bad the song is - I'm a little stuck still at the achievement - which is naturally divorced from concepts like good, human, listenable, relatable and so on.

But I like your idea that by way of reaction, artists that deepen the human connection are sought.

And these recommendations are great Last Days and Maia Hirasawa. I've got some playlists queued for deeper listening. Appreciated.
