"i can't pay attention if it's not sang to me in a spongebob/miku duet" but for real: i think if your initial exposure to this song was like, passive (having it play in the background, on the top 40 radio and whatnot), you'd condition yourself not to listen closely; your minds files it under "pop dreg". listening to it in a different context allows you to pay attention to things that you didn't before, e.g., the god dangned lyrics
