You do bring up a good point even though I won't (and can't) change my vote.

Having kids really made me notice how songs that I wouldn't listen to normally are amazingly well written. The classic for me was in the very late 90s or early 00s when my oldest daughter started blasting Nirvana. For all he dealt with and such Kurt Cobain knew tons about what makes a song tick. Never something I would put on voluntarily but well done within the genre.

I was never a Streisand fan but she knows an awful lot about how to present a song in a way that it connects with a ton of people. Not a bad talent to have.
