Went off without a hitch. The contrast between the traditional hymn and the heavy metal worked surprisingly well.

Was Bruce's work well received?

I hope you sang it to the class Diesel.

One of my friends thought it was great, “a bop”, to quote her. I don’t think anyone really expected it but they all seemed to like it to some degree.

I did not. I can do it, but it wouldn’t work too well in the classroom setting.

“a bop”

I used to hate that word, now I use it every five minutes. Oh well.

As you scream into the web of silence and all that jazz...

I've never heard someone use that before.

It's literally nothing more than a trendy way to address a song you think is great.

I think EOTC is great, but it’s hardly a bop.

But that's literally the point: if you think it's great, it's a bop.

I see a bop and more something you can move to, something that’s really movin’. Certainly the way I use it. “King in Crimson” is a bop, “Como Estais Amigos” is not, “Rime of the Ancient Mariner” is, etc.

Of course I do everything wrong anyway but I’m fine with that.

I'm not trendy.

I've never heard or read someone referring to a song as a "bop".

 

[Mosh]

This is my favorite bop:

Me neither! I just started saying it out of the blue.

I've never heard or read someone referring to a song as a "bop".

Granted I only heard it (mostly) on Taylor Swift reaction videos...

What the fuck is "bop"?

 

[Diesel 11]

Oh my god.

Bop is a late millennial/Generation Z term for a good song, used almost exclusively in pop music cycles.

It's almost always used to refer to dance pop songs, so that's not an unreasonable association.

It sure started that way, but it's not confined to dance-pop anymore. I've already seen the term being used across basically all kinds of different genres with certain frequency, and that's for a good few months now.
