Look, we all retain soft spots for the music of our youth that are impervious to critical reason, don't we? Hence I still love Prince and The Smiths and can even listen to Tears For Fears with a large degree of pleasure (albeit when no-one else is around).
The one I'm totally over these days is Joy Division. Loved it as an angsty teenager. Think it's unlistenable shïte these days.
There really is a little bit of you that's still 14 years old.
As for the lyrics, you have to remember that they wrote an album that was about Primal Scream Therapy and I still liked them. Listening to it now is hardly likely to change anything, is it?
