I used to work for a musical instrument shop. This was played on hourly rotation. 8 times a day I heard that song.

If you don't know the original or watch the video I would Imagine it sounds quite bad. I dislike it and my tastes are quite eclectic.

At the 1913 premiere of Igor Stravinsky's unusually dissonant "Rite of Spring," there was a riot.

I like to think they would be very surprised by it but that it would become very respected and popular when they see the skill and talent!

4 years ago | Likes 4 Dislikes 0

Probably hate it. To us it sounds good. But we know that track and can relate to it. To them it'd probably sound like bastardized music.

Anything not conforming to standards is usually not very well received, even on short time scales. See Bohemian Rhapsody for example.
