OK. I agree with most what you said. Note, however, that I was not very strict in my division: I qualified Vangelis' music as *nearly* popular. Note also that actually you are supporting Jim's point of view, the same as I do... to some extent.
It has to be "to some extent" only because Jim's already managed to contradict himself - and from a contradiction anything can be proven. But note that in Jim's original statement (the one to which I originally replied) he made no distinction about _what sort_ of music he was talking about. And much of what has been said since merely backs up what I originally replied with: 1) Familiarity 2) Natural selection Morgan L. Owens "Anyone know a good memetic decontamination service? I've got a British indie melody stuck in my head."
