Some songwriters are so stuck for ideas they just write about other songs, or they simply tell you what their song is trying to be. Good songwriting takes work, so why do it?
These artists found a way to skirt the difficulties and get straight to the meaningless hooks! Selena Gomez tells you there are enough good love songs already so she's not going to try, Kid Rock sings about singing something else, Rachel Platten tells you what her song is supposed to be, and Brett Eldredge tells you what his song is thinking, and it's about what kind of song it wishes it could be.
I'd been thinking about songs about songs so much lately I had to reboot my old series “Oof, Who Charted?” for a new, special episode. Enjoy!

Fly Iron Maiden Airlines, the rockinest airline in the sky! For those that don’t know, Iron Maiden’s lead singer Bruce Dickinson is a licensed commercial pilot and will be flying their customized tour plane in 2016, so we figure they should just start an airline and make it official.
This is the commercial we envision for that airline to get them off the ground :-)")

Dont you just love when rock stars from the 1980s show up in commercials? I know I do, like that DirecTV ad with Bon Jovi. Heres his illegitimate brother Non Jovi, whos hawking more sadness than anything. But who cares? Theres a great rock beat and a sweet close up at the end!")
