      What we call musical genres (especially now that people seem to like creating ever finer distinctions between genres more than they like music) are differentiated more by arragment and production than anything. As Otis Redding showed us decades ago if you take the fuzz riff from "Satisfication" and play it on horns that rock song morphs into soul.

      I've seen this exact comment on many videos. Does it make you wonder if UA-cam is purchasing this comment?
      It's a great video. A commercial for hello kitty, with youtube ads surrounding it. Commercials within commercial surrounded by commercials. Weird and wonderful world we live in.

    Oh yeah!
    Some people say my love cannot be true
    Please believe me, my love, and i'll show you
    I will give you those things you thought unreal
    The sun, the moon, the stars all bear my seal
    Oh yeah!
    Follow me now and you will not regret
    Leaving the life you led before we met
    You are the first to have this love of
    Forever with me 'till the end of time
    Your love for me has just got to be real
    Before you know the way i'm going to feel
    I'm going to feel
    I'm going to feel
    Oh yeah!
    Now i have you with me, under my power
    Our love grows stronger now with every hour
    Look into my eyes, you will see who i am
    My name is lucifer, please take my hand
    Oh yeah!
    Follow me now and you will not regret
    Leaving the life you led before we met
    You are the first to have this love of mine
    Forever with me 'till the end of time
    Your love for me has just got to be real
    Before you know the way i'm going to feel
    I'm going to feel
