"Penis music", defined as:

Quote
Music that you know is bad and shouldn’t be listened to / enjoyed, but triggers the uncontrollable instinct of wanting to dance and jam out to it anyway

It just made my On Repeat list on Spotify, so apparently I've been listening to it a lot.

It's a good song and they were a great band. RIP Adam Schlesinger.

"What's Up" by the Four Non Blondes? Now that's penis music.

Not really.

But I loved the music video growing up.

Horrible take. That song slaps.

Maybe Chelsea Dagger by The Fratellis (which everyone knows the tune thereof but no one knows the name, at least in my experience).

No I think of penis music as being way more out there/less mainstream. Lil Pump is penis music

me and my wife have a long running "argument" concerning this "penis music".  I say a song can be "catchy" (an ear worm) but not good and a good song might not be catchy.  She argues that if a song gets stuck in your head, it must be "good".


she's probably right....she's right about everything else (even when she's not) Smiley




"Stacy's Mom" is fine, neither "good" nor particularly "catchy", but not bad either.

I have a distinct hatred of "Stacy's Mom" because when that song was popular when I was in middle school everyone would change the name of the song to my name and sing it about my mom. I'm sorry that Schlesinger died though.

Another fun fact: I've been to the actual Fountains of Wayne store that the band named themselves after. My dad bought the waterfall for our backyard pond there in Wayne, New Jersey.

Oh, and the most recent example of "penis music" to me is that f***ing "Dance Monkey" song. I hate it, but it is one of the most insidious ear-worms I have ever heard.

It's got a good chord and melody structure, though the verses are pretty simple. The verses are also the weak point lyrically. I would have to say that it's a good song, NOT penis music. Doesn't make me want to dance though.

Yes, but lots of other Fountains of Wayne songs are genuinely good songs.

Yup. "Valley Winter Song", "Mexican Wine", "Someone to Love", "All Kinds of Time" etc will always be bangers. Such an underrated band.
