As catchy as I found "Castle On The Hill" by Ten Hands when playing it on KCOU, I had a quibble about the lyrics. I interpreted them as someone trying to coax his girlfriend or wife to stop being so reclusive and get out more often. While that might have been to her benefit, whenever I listened, I thought, "While this is a scenario crafted for the song, people should respect others' boundaries. If she wants to be a hermit, that's her prerogative. It might not always be the best idea, but that's still her choice to make."
That said, the strength of the song's rhythm, construction, and commitment to its vocals should have made it a hit. So many catchy songs never get their due, unfortunately.
