That's an interesting point, although I was convinced they are actually more catchy.
For me, while FFs instrumental music is not that dissimilar with GoF (maybe a bit more dancey), the counterpoint (and what balances them out for me) is the singing style which I genuinely think is more melodic.

Thanks! I didn't know that.
Regarding the latter, it's a matter of personal taste, and mine is not at all refined.
