I've always said that Dido's songs have two themes:
1) You're leaving me and it's all your fault.
2) I'm leaving you and it's all your fault.

How come they never sing about what a great blowjob they give?
Her songs are everywhere, for the guys saying that they've never heard her they probably have.
They are your standard top 40, listenable but I'm not heading out to create a spotify playlist. The question in my mind is how much of it is she writing herself vs doing it country style where songwriters send you stuff to record and call your own. If she is writing it herself I'll say she is talented and deserves the hype, if she's just recording other peoples material then it is what it is.
She's well known as a talented song writer and has been doing it a long time. The messages in her songs are certainly questionable, but some are catchy. I can listen to some of them and not hate them. Actually, I may hate myself a little for liking them.
All I know is back in the 90s, I expected music to be taken over by slammed 100 spoke Geo-Metros blaring gangster-rap out of tinny base speakers while they vibrated apart.
I'm... quite fine with the direction the majority of popular music took instead. Teen girls listening to Taylor Swift vs back a few decades ago, teen girls listening to rap about screwing h@s and murdering bit$$es, at 100db no less, the moment their parents were gone.
Some things surprisingly... have actually gotten better.
Some of you amuse me.
While I don?t partake of everything in today?s pop culture, I am at least aware of most things.
Those of you who say you haven?t heard one of her songs probably have even if you didn?t know it was her or the cave you?re living in is so isolated from society that Bin Laden would be jealous.
I looked up what songs of hers were in movies and TV. I have, in fact, heard many taylor swift songs. I've seen Sing 2, Supernatural, The Secret Life of Pets, The Bear, You, Pitch Perfect 2, Always Sunny, The Hunger Games, and New Girl.

I can pretty much guarantee she isn't being played on any of my Amazon music stations, and I listen to audio books while driving.
