I'm not crazy about it mostly because I have to listen to it at work all the time (in retail previously, currently in hospitality...) but it's not one of my most hated retail songs, not even top ten for me, I think because it's a rather odd sounding song and kind of amuses/distracts me when it comes on instead of just boring and irritating me like some others I could mention. I get what you mean, his backup singers sound almost kind of ethereal? And the repetition could definitely come across as uncanny if you aren't feeling the song in the first place, lol.
