Galway Girl always sounded to me like a song left over from his busking days. I think it awful, but a lot of people think it the best song so what do I know?
I say always but I think I've only heard it twice maybe..

In my job I have to listen to Galway Girl and Shape of You around 6-8 times a day each and it never gets any easier

most of these are absolute abominations but I won’t lie, I actually don’t mind castle on the hill

actually COTH sounds like the work of one of those dodgy bands that bono would’ve signed to mother records in 1980-something, and the hothouse flowers weren’t ever that high on my kill list so it gets a pass from me

Castle On The Hill is part of the recent tradition of MOR radio songs that go 'I remember when I was a little boy / So so long ago now / Running around the back alleys smoking dope and getting in trouble / That was so long ago now I can barely remember / I'm 26 BTW'

don’t know how new it is, bryan adams made ‘summer of 69’ when he was *checks* 26!

Is this at all connected to the tradition of campfire-EDM where a father gives the narrator-son advice like "one day you'll be old and dead, so you should live while you're young and I dunno drop some G lmao"?
