I hate the Bee Gees and think the vast majority of their music is slop.
At the same time, “I Started A Joke” is one of my favorite songs ever. I would like it played at my funeral. “Staying Alive” is an all-time banger.
This whole thread reminds me of when I saw Ivo Van Hove’s restaging of Network starring Bryan Cranston. I absolutely loved it, but I could’t figure out if it was a work of genius or an unwatchable disaster. Or somehow both at the same time.
One thing it was not was mediocre.
