tbrr tho i don't actually have a big problem with the tune? i have never rly been particularly fond of twee vintage/modern juxta jobs (DOOP aside of course), something claustrophobic about them, but i think this one just about manages to achieve the mediated, innocuous spontaneity it's going for (which is why "v amateurish imo" is the wild dunce cap observation obv). it's probably a trickier task than it seems, and easily taken for granted
in conclusion: quite acceptable as mayfly fleeting fancy, a bit "yay, cake in the office" to integrate into ur consciousness as a tru totemic summer jam
