    80 to 116 BPM. I actually chuckled audibly that the BPM was specified, I assumed it would be extremely vague.

    This is memeable, yes; but usually when news like this starts coming out a nation shit’s definitely gone sideways for it.

      It just feels like a conservative one party government trying to fill in time before the next election with busy work.

      Nothing pleases social conservatives more than cracking down on that weird music their kids listen to.
