This is so easy to prove wrong, I am sure alone with pulling out that 
story it will be played more than 200 times and paying well with 
royalties for the creation of that collage.

Listening now, and enjoying... ;-) It's wonderfully terrible...
If it wouldn't be a collage that would change just before it becomes 
unbearable it would be - well, unbearable...
Anybody knows of Mrs. Miller? Its so funny. It all depends on the 
perspective...
And on the most unwanted instruments, I am sure there are more than 
200*200 players for each, accordion and bagpipe in the world...

All this is coming out of a statistical perspective. But if you look at 
taste in a statistical way, the result will be 100% nonsense. Its so 
obvious, that stories about that are always funny, but I doubt that 
statisticians would ever want to get it, because its their main source 
of income. All the big boring multinational trusts want to know the 
average taste of mankind to create the everlasting product everybody 
wants. I know they will fail forever... (Unfortunately their efforts 
kill tasteful craftsmen...)

Or in short:
The common factor of the average taste is the absence of taste...

This is true for bad taste and good taste...
(replace "taste" with "bad taste" or with "good taste"... ;-)
