Disney Desperation

Just one quick thought for the day:  how is Miley Cyrus so beloved by such a wide audience?  I can sort of forgive the female audience, ages 6-14, but why is it that I hear strains of "Party in the USA" drifting from the row of frat houses every weekend?  How is it that the dudes living a floor above me, the fifth-year seniors who like to "get sh**ty" in their free time, spend their Saturday nights drinking to Miley's latest hit?*  Do their testicles sling shot back into their bodies or what?  Is the American public so desperate for fun, danceable songs, and so musically illiterate, that Billy Ray Cyrus's 15-year-old, Disney-manufactured daughter is sufficient pop entertainment for legal adults?

I bring this up without bitterness or hatred for the young performer.  However, the only time I want to see or hear Miley Cyrus is when she's being mocked on The Soup.

More posting on actual music to come soon.
