==Style, themes and lyrics==
Musically, "Radio-Friendly Pop Song" incorporates elements of pop punk, punk rock, pop rock and includes an a cappella breakdown section. Lyrically, the song is a comment on homophobia in certain parts of the music and entertainment industries.〔Towle, Andy. ("Homophobia in the music industry called out in Matt Fishel's 'Radio-Friendly Pop Song': Lyric video". ), ''Towleroad'', USA, 18 March 2013. Retrieved on 6 December 2013.〕 Fishel has described the song as both a "fun, tongue-in-cheek response to certain A&R guys in major labels"〔("Queer Radio Interview with Matt Fishel" ), ''4ZZZFM.org.au'', Australia, 11 May 2013. Retrieved on 6 December 2013.〕 and as "an anthem of pride in celebration of the LGBTQ community."〔("RightOutTV Music & Video Awards Winners" ), ''RightOut TV Awards'', Canada, Retrieved on 6 December 2013.〕 The song is inspired by Fishel's experiences of the entertainment industry as an out, gay artist and of being repeatedly advised to remove any openly gay content from his work.〔("JD Doyle Interviews Matt Fishel April 2013 The Script" ), ''Queer Music Heritage - JD Doyle'', USA, April 2013. Retrieved on 6 December 2013.〕 The lyrics to the first verse of the song talk about the music industry and the second verse refers to Hollywood and the movie business.〔. 10 March 2013. Retrieved on 6 December 2013.〕 In an interview with Northern Ireland's GayNI Magazine, Fishel said "Radio-Friendly Pop Song" is "based on my (and many others’) experiences of being a gay artist in the entertainment industry, and the latent homophobia that still lies underneath the surface of certain corporate companies. I’ve had meetings in the past with A&R guys from the majors who have said to me: 'your songs are great, you just need to get rid of all the gay content, you should sing about girls so as not to alienate your audience'." He went on to say "I’ve always felt uncomfortable with the idea of deliberately ‘dumbing down’ my lyrics for any kind of commercial gain...So I wanted to write a fun, tongue-in-cheek response to those people, which basically says 'I’m gay, I’m out and I’m proud, I’m not prepared to hide from that and I’m gonna be true to who I am.'"〔Fishel, Matt (Interview).
