3/ The essay I’ve written here tackles these paradoxes and troubling trends head-on—including taking a look at some bubblegum lyrics that’d be deemed *genuinely creepy today*, even as I acknowledge that some of the biggest 1960s pop hits were bubblegum but simply not called that. — PolitiTweet.org

2/ Bubblegum music was ostensibly intended for kids, but filled with double-entendres involving drugs and sex. Even as it superficially pulled back on some of the heavy-hitter preoccupations of sixties music—e.g., war—it touted a strange aggressiveness in romantic relationships. — PolitiTweet.org

4/ And it goes without saying that I define what we mean by “bubblegum music” and consider some of the market considerations behind it. But the upshot is this—no matter how much you think you know 60s music, you’ve probably not heard these songs. Yet they’re all *catchy as hell*. — PolitiTweet.org
