Wouldn't entertainment just be art in search of the right audience? It's remarkable how different the things that speak to us or challenge us can be.
I remember when I was a teenager, telling my little sister that some song she loved wasn't "art". This actually made her cry. Not only did that particular song evoke a response and to her mind qualify as art, the idea that her big bro rejected that validation produced another. This is..if you ask me, one of the most shameful events in my life - yet another deep and visceral and challenging reaction provoked. My mother took me to task for it..pretty sure she thought the song was shit, too..but there she was, yelling at her favorite son, lol.
Good game pop music...good game.
