“Todos estamos hoy integrados en la cultura de masas, incluidos los críticos apocalípticos que la consideran la antítesis de la cultura .Nadie está al margen de la música pop, la manera en la que nos relacionemos con ella puede cambiar, y de hecho cambia, de unos a otros, pero es imposible no relacionarnos con ella”
Juan Carlos Fernández Serrato, Hacia una teoría del pop
