He also successfully creates the kind of rhythms and rhymes that make you want to sing along as loud as you can in your car(trust me). The melody and pace are simple and predictable. This in my mind is another strength.

"C Frank and Burly Joe Oats/Who is the King of all these folks" (unsure on these names)

This song also transports you into a world that isn't your own(or a least it isn't mine). This is a world of times past, or at least the fantasy of such. Filled with a score of colourful characters that you wish you spent last night dining with. It is a novel in 5 minutes.

2. Details of the aesthetic process

2.1 As already indicated, the aesthetic process is conceived of as
a special aspect of mind that deals with aesthetic matters (in an
analogous way to the way that processes of the visual system deal
with vision). We can be consciously aware of the outputs generated
by the aesthetic processes, just as we can be consciously aware of
the visual percepts that the processes of visual perception
generate.

2.2 Activity of the aesthetic subsystem can be induced in various
ways. One is the process of listening to music, and another the
process of composition. These differ, obviously, in that in the
former case the stimulus comes from outside, while in the latter
case the aesthetic state is self-induced (while performance of music
involves a combination of both features).

2.3 By virtue of the fact that music can be considered as
information, it follows that information plays a significant role in
the functioning of the aesthetic subsystem. In listening,
information fed in determines the state of the aesthetic subsystem.
Conversely, in composition the aesthetic subsystem generates
information (see, however, sec. 3.2). The importance of information
is one of a number of aspects in which aesthetic processes parallel
life, where information (e.g. DNA) plays a similarly important role
(parallels with life have been noted from a different point of view
by Langer (5) and Schoenberg (6).
