' In "Towards an Aesthetic of Popular Music" Simon Frith (1987) argues that popular music has 4 social functions that account for its value and popularity in society. Popular music:
- allows us to answer questions about our own identity and place in society
- help us manage the relationship between our public and private emotional lives
- help us organize our sense of time and shapes popular memory
- is something that is possessed
