Diamond: I liked the song, but the video, that I truly loved and I have watched it a few times now because I liked it so much.
Rev Rey: Nobody reviewed your music, so I will, I could not watch the original so looked at the live performance in Iceland, and enjoyed it.
Too right you should complain about this unwarranted attack on your taste. One can see that who ever made those remarks has no soul. The clue is in the words- 'In truth I cannot see why'. This is the typical wording used by a critic. By definition a critic is someone who is not an artist because they lack the vision to imagine, and there you have it in the critics own words 'I cannot see'. It is obvious why in this disrupted world someone would seek art which is both predictable, and yet at the same time exotic. Are we not all vulnerable and wish to have something solid on which to rely that does not change, but that is also different from us so that we can expand our vision. Nobody should be criticised for this, because it is the very essence of what being human is all about! Critics are bitter people, who can make a good argument, but lack that extra something that we of the rest of humanity hold dear.

In truth I cannot see why anyone would find this even mildly interesting, unless they knew nothing about the culture that spawned it and were encountering these things for the very first time.
I feel like I've just been dealt a critical hit-
By a double strike.
Shit hurts, son.
