Urgg I hate that song. Especially because the first time I heard it I thought "Oh wow what does it say, Im gonna listen to the lyrics" and it says nothing. Its just bland and unoriginal peter pan lyrics. There is no different angle or clever metaphor. He def got it right that the other song was the good peter pan song.
Todd is like that teacher who knows which students will cause trouble when paired up in a group project so he tells Drake and Future they’re not allowed to work together
sure the 2016 being a brutal year aged poorly, but you know what else aged poorly? Todd thinking Vine dying would save him from shitty songs with segmented viral dance trends 💀💀💀
What's funny about Vine is that back then when it was super popular and still around I remember when everybody absolutely hated Vine, and now people are nostalgic for Vine.
@@metroidotherm6170 Yeah, I’ve found a lot of lesser known artists from that app that genuinely make good music. There’s a few bad ones, but the good songs I hear do cancel the bad ones out
1. If it's popular we call it "nude", not "beige". Though admittedly "nude" is a slightly too exciting word for this song. 2. I like the colour beige/nude. 3. The above is probably related to why I actually like the song quite well. It's very harmless, a little melancholic - and very neutralising when the road rage creeps up so I usually appreciated it when the song came on the radio.
Toxicghosts22 4) Make dance song's for bonus points. 5) And last but not least, also make sure you have a gullible general public that will be stupid enough to buy it.
Glad you realized that about Peter Pan too. Basically the entire point of the original book is that never growing up and staying in eternal adolescance may sound good at first, but is actually a really shitty way to live.
Wanna explain that to me further? I'm genuinely curious and highly doubt Todd will ever bring up Peter Pan. It's actually the main reason I disliked the country song, thinking everything she's saying is actually making a GOOD case for the guy.
I was kind of hoping it would be a metaphor for drug addiction, with pixie dust being heroin or something and peter pan being her dealer/pimp, but that would have been a good song.
Maybe but I don't think he did, I read the book this year. "There were odd stories about him, as that when children died he went part of the way with them, so that they would not be frightened." Gratned these are only stories that mister Darling has heard but i do think they hold value. Now while peter seems to have some concept of death he lacks the full understanding as he the emotional maturity of well a child and he forgets very easily as he is such as a child (in fact he forgot about hook after hook committed suicide but always remembered wendy). What you are referring to is that he "thinned them out". (Though you might also be thinking of the 'killing adults' thing but that needs a lot more context to understand) This is a vague statement that could easily mean that he abandoned them in the wood, made them leave never land and go back or kill them like you suggested. I was clearly left up for interpretation. If I remember correctly the lost boys used trees to get into their secret hide out but when the boys would no longer fit he would thin them out (this lead to a joke about how the fat lost boy thing out his tree instead). Which I interpreted as peter making them smaller potently horrifying or making no sense but this is a book where the narrator had an argument with Mrs. Darling, Mrs. Darling had a box holding a secret kiss and the narrator tossed a dice in order to decide how to tell the story. In other words, this book is big on whimsy and nonsense. It's possible that peter did straight up kill the lost boys but honestly I find that a boring interpretation as neverland is a child's playland dark and thrilling not a merely a paradise or merely full of silliness and laughter ( it is abit of all three). It is intense where children fly rather than walk and they kill the pirates that are as horrible as can be. While possible for peter to kill his friends it doesn't quite work with his mo of killing villains and most kids don't want their friends permanently gone rather they want the abblity to have their friends come and go when they( in this case peter) want so I think it's more likely that he kicked them out then forgot they existed. This in turn opens interesting stories about former lost boys living out in the real world which I find far more interesting. Especially since lost boys already die in the fights with the pirates. What's more peter pan is portrayed with both positives and negatives. Barry loves to show peter pan in a positive light but doesn't shy away from the tragedy and the negatives of the character. For example, he has the positives of a child as he is adventures and fun loving but also selfish and bratty and due to his short memory is incapable of deciding if he truly wants to be a kid forever or if he wants to grow up. This is something Barry did with Wendy to and even hook and tinker bell too much lesser extents. Barry portrayed peter pan as a complex figure and his never growing up as both good (endless adventure) and bad(unable to fully understand things like death). Sorry for the long post but over-simplifying children's story books bugs me ;) Also feel free to tell me i'm wrong if I forgot something.
It’s been 4 years, and yet Todd’s rant about Wikipedia not having a page for the Juju On The Beat guys while having a page about boob mountains has lived in my head rent free
"lost boy" reminds me of those slowed-down trailer themes that think doing an acoustic cover of a children's song automatically make it deep and profound. i think ruth b was going for a nostalgic 'childhood lost - i need to escape reality', or even a 'Wish We Could Turn Back Time to the Good Old Days' vibe, but the song doesn't understand how to convey that without drowning in cliches and detached dullness.
I feel the same. Todd is just being unnecessarily mean about this one. I also have heard that ruth b had a pretty rough childhood, so maybe it's just her way to escape from the cruel reality, a lost boy nobody loved try to find his own neverland. What's to be mocked? I don't get all these judgement.
What I don't get is how overpraised "Lost Boy" is. Seriously, looking at the comments on the video, people seem to think it is "a song with REAL talent and meaning" and how it "brings up feelings" and such. I just really don't understand it.
Maybe they're associating it with drugs like with most other fairy tails. "Peter" is the dealer, "Tinker bell" is the main provider of "pixie dust" (read: blow), the "Lost Boys" and "Wendy Darling" are their customers, and "Captain Hook" is the Po-Po. I don't think I should mention the whole "flying" thing...
A G there's somber indie songs and then there's dull uninspired songs sung by teenage singers like they're bored out of their mind. The later is "Lost Boy"

It's either that or a song from an off Broadway musical, and the girl playing the lead hurt her voice, and the opening show is in a week so she's marking it. ....actually that's exactly what it sounds like....
@@salma.elsaid Are we sure that's NOT what it is? I agree with Todd, this sounds like a dull-as-shit self insert fanfic. If it's supposed to be a tribute song, it's being done WRONG. There's a right way to do a tribute song,(as another commenter has said),and there's a wrong way to do it. Ruth B's song, is the WRONG way to do it. Plus, her name makes her sound generic as hell. Also, if this is a tribute song, it doesn't automatically mean the song will be any good. But, I like your interpretation of this dull-as-shit song, dude/lady.
The appeal of Lost Boy is that the somber tone tricks the young listener into thinking that it's more mature and there's a deeper meaning to it. Despite the fact that, even if there is a deeper meaning to it, that deeper meaning would be based on a fundamental misunderstanding of the point of the Peter Pan story: you don't actually want to be a Lost Boy. The fact that Peter Pan and the Lost Boys never grew up is supposed to be a bad thing
Andy Johnson In mainstream it's not that far off. Though overall it's far from the truth. Non mainstream hip hop is the best it's ever been, the amount of innovation and creativity going on in hip hop is incredible right now.
To me, the worst song on this list is Peter Pan. The way that the "artist" sings about the story just sounds so bored and detached that it becomes insulting to fans of the original story, as well every good adaptation of the story. I just...ugh.
Lulu Calliope To be fair, I think Lost Boy is supposed to be a metaphor for suicide, seeing the sad tone and quietness. It still sucks, but I got a soft spot for P Pan.
Rainman Slim doesn't change the fact that people still like it I mean the original little mermaid involved a really down beat ending but that doesn't make me hate the story of the little mermaid besides the authors wife actually said that she didn't think he was attracted to anyone woman man or child
The first time I watched this video, I hadn't heard that Lost Boys song and was thinking: "Surely, this song isn't as terrible as it sounds." Then I heard it playing in an ice-cream parlor and I felt my soul INSTANTLY leave my body. The second time I heard it, I felt overcome by terror because my subconscious keeps insisting that there's some creepy hidden meaning.
I find your review very amusing because if I had to describe the sort of person who would like that song, I'd start by guessing they say things like "i felt my soul INSTANTLY leave my body".
Like Todd in the Shadows, A Dose of Buckley and the rest of us said, "Oh hell, this isn't a metaphor. This is a fanfic! It's a self-insert fanfic! Gawd, no wonder it's so serious! >:(". XD
OH GOD, I hate that song Lost Boy! I hear it so damn often at work and it grinds my gears so hard I wonder how they're not all wheels by now. So droning and pointless...
i like 21p as much as the next person, but im also studying norweigan and that ø in their stylized name and now in every middle-schoolers instagram bio drives me crazy…
Faith Chitwood oh my God every fucking twenty one pilots fan on God's green earth does it while they're just typing. so say they want to say their Nona is a good cook, they'd type "my Nøna is such a gøød cøøk. stay alive -/" I love twenty one pilots but HOLY FUCK
I don't even know who they are, but I am Norwegian and whenever I see someone use Ø like that it annoys me. Unless they really DO pronounce their name Twenty UHN-E pil-UH-tes.
@@YouCanCallMeXoe No, it definitely isn't. People in the comments say she made the song for her dead brother who died and loved Peter Pan. While I'm sorry to hear that, it doesn't mean the song itself is automatically good. The song is still boring as shit.
No. There's a song Ed Sheeran made with some other woman that appeared on one of Todd's worst list. That is the most boring song. Lost Boys is bad, but at least it has a basic rhythm. The Ed Sheeran song is milk on white bread levels of bland.
@@jeremyusreevu237 You mean the song, "Perfect", with Beyonce, right? Yeah, I disagree. While I despise beyonce, it's only her version with Ed Sheeran that sucks. Ed by himself on the song isn't too bad. A bit corny, and had a bunch of romantic cliches, but the song itself isn't too bad. But like Todd said, that version forces you to imagine Beyonce and Ed Sheeran as a couple, which makes me want to puke(I added that last part in myself, because, blegh!) As hot as beyonce is, her music makes her seem very, very annoying. And Ruth B's awful Peter Pan song is STILL the most boring song, and worst Peter Pan related anything ever made or witnessed by humanity, 'nuff said.
I think the appeal of Daya is the fact that she, like Lorde when she made it big, was 17 when she had her first hit. "Woooow, she's so young and is able to sing even though she's so young! Can you believe a teenager can do something as well as an adult? Amazing, give her a record deal!"
Sparkyisheretoparty Lorde had amazing self-awareness and insight and none of the pretentiousness. It bashes some of the artifice of culture/materialism but doesn't pretend that they're awesome either.
Secret Steve little thing called illusion of choice. Artists are treated like brands and they try to brand them with a certain image depending on the market to their voice. If a star such as Lorde hit it big they try to tap into that and so on and so forth. Even bands so far back as the 50s were all trying to be the Platters or whatever trio/quintet group that was out there. That is until rock hit the scene and everyone is all just trying to compete for a more vast audience. Music isnt just a list. Its a spectrum, and it changes alongside society the way i see it.
Because they don't put any effort into their singing. They just care about making themselves look hot and shaking their boobs and ass at people to make them forget that the singing's crappy. Take Ariana Grande. She just wants all men to be so turned on by her shaking her tits in their faces that they'll ignore the fact that she's a horrible singer.
Ruth B's song got big because: 1. Most people don't think about lyrics as much as they should. 2. People assume slow and piano means deep. 3. The girl is really cute. Not even like hot, but cute. Like a child growing up. I look at her and think she could be my daughter - and I'm whiter than a yeti lol
THANK YOU for mentioning Lost Boy (I know it's well into 2017 and I'm quite late to the party here but oops I'm just now seeing this). It was inoffensive, but boy did it literally sound like something I would write for my eighth grade English project and was so musically unoriginal that it made me cringe every time and I could never sit through it.
I really did think 2016 was the worst fucking year of my life and then 2020 snatched me up by my fucking ponytail and brutally slammed me into the ground repeatedly and mercilessly.
"where will we be without our tragically misused samples?" man we're all laughing about todd thinking vine dying would save him from bad songs but rehearing this line is especially funny after rewatching the 2022 worst of list
A G you can have somber and slow songs that are way more well written than lost boy. Lost boy is very generic, and produced to appeal to the masses. There's a difference between somber and boring/poorly written. Also I don't agree that boring generic songs are popular amongst the indie fans. If you want to listen to a band that does slow songs that aren't generic af or boring and are actually well written check out the indie bands grizzly bear or alt j.
It makes me happy that a year later after Todd pondered/worried if Lorde didnt have longevity he put one of her follow up songs as his #1 best of the year.
What I find funny is Juju On That Beat is also known as the TZ Anthem when it should be the Vine goodbye anthem. The camera spinoff they tried in early 2017 thankfully died off faster
Surprised you didn't bring up that Lost Boy started its life as a Vine video. It was just soooooooo good, that she turned it into a whole song. Lucky us.
Advent3546 Actually not for music though. Besides the deaths and mainstream music they're actually a ton of amazing albums that came out this year in rock, metal and hip hop. Those are really the only genres I listened to so I can't speak much on the other. Apparently country had a great year but I'm not a fan of the genre.
2016 Todd: music this year was the worst! 2017 Todd beams in: no dude, drone rap takes over. It's not even funny. 2018 Todd beams in while on fire, and clothes ripped: *Run.*
You know, Peter Pan would kill the Lost Boys when they got too old. The first one to escape him was Captain Hook and Hook tried to save as many of them as his could, which is where he got his pirate crew from.
umm no. That is not cannon. There is a line about thinning out the lost boys but is vague and can be interpreted multiple ways including killing th boys but that is your interpretation and not fact. I read the book in 2016.
That's just various darker retellings, not actual canon. The tragedy of Peter Pan is that he never grows up and forever hindered by the detriments of childhood. His life, though prolonged, is not a life. It's a game. He never experiences what it's like to actually live a fulfilling life, it's one stuck during the years of preadolescence. He never gets to meet his sweetheart or have kids of his own or build a life for himself. He doesn't know what it's like to lead a rich fulfilling life because he's too afraid to. I've read all of the original plays and novel. The darkness is overblown by conspiracy theorists on the internet.
One of the reasons why 2016 is one of the absolute worst years of music is Jacob Sartorius. Sure, none of his songs were hits, but he did take absolutely awful music to a brand new level of low.
Man this list is vastly different from buckley's. Love it, I don't listen to pop but love hearing people tear into them. ALSO PETER PAN'S WORLD IS MORE FUCKING DANGEROUS THAN PEOPLE SEEM TO REALIZE!!
I would love a great song about Peter Pan. I fucking love that story...and it speaks a lot about the universal fear of getting older and letting go (but how doing so eventually allows you to experience more of life ). But yeah that song sucks and it's disappointing.
I actually like MGK #estallday #lacethefuckup but I just couldn't care for Bad Things mostly because it's just a mediocre song about MGK's BDSM fetish. My real problem with MGK is why the hell do they promote *that* mediocre trash over better MGK songs like "Gone" (which is a much better version of Eminem's "Mockingbird"), "Invincible", "A Little More Love" (a much better suicide prevention song than Logic's mediocre 1-800 bullshit), "Go For Broke", "Hollywood Whore", "Glass House", and etc and etc? That is straight-up bullshit!
2 Things about "Bad Things" 1. That name "MachineGunKelly" reminds me of GunvsGun. 2. My mom absolutely HATES that song, and she kinda liked Fight Song. Yeah. 😕
Hey, here's a story for ya - 2016 was my last year of intermediate school (NZ equivalent of middle school) and at the end of the year we had our leavers' dinner. Everyone had to perform something that night (it was a small school, there were about 40 of us in our year) and as expected most people not part of a group performed a song - lots of white guys with acoustic guitars and white chicks with pianos. One such white girl with a piano performed 'Lost Boy'. At the time I assumed that it was an original song that she wrote simply because of how basic it was - I thought "oh cool, an original song and not another cover of some stupid pop song". Fast forward a few years and I watch this video. I remember thinking "wait, Lost Boy was like, an actual song? That girl didn't write it herself? Jeeesus"
whenever people make jokes like "I can't believe we all called 2016 the worst year ever because a bunch of celebrities died," I always think back to your line at 0:57 : "A year in which we kept losing our best and brightest and empowering our stupidest and worst." That alone perfectly sums up the dread that I still feel when looking back on this year, and even though what was to come was a lot worse, make no mistake ---- It was still that bad
10. so being a wannabe Lorde is a trend now? where do they do this at? 9. you see kids, this is how Migos was born. 8. Beautiful sista; Dreadful Song 7. Hate. This. Song. totally ripped off the Beatles 6. These Dance Songs.......God These Dance songs! 😫😣😣😣😣
10. Hey, uh Daya? NOONE thinks that you want that. In fact the idea that you'd imply that woman just want to look good for men is kind of offensive. No, not kind of, it IS offensive. 9. I can't understand what their saying. And I'm sick of mumble rapping. 8. I actually think this song is really pretty. 7. I thought this song was decent. 6. Ugh, ANOTHER ONE? I thought I hated the Chacha slide.I was wrong. This is pain.
Generally whenever I hear a duet of the woman singing the chorus, and the guy rapping the verses, I just groan because the songs end up being dragged down by the guy. My best example is I Hate U I love U. Besides the U part making me wanna punch my screen, the chorus is actually good. At least I like it. Then Mr Whothefuckcares comes in and rhymes shit with shit.... 4 times. Thats basically the story with those types of songs all year, and it's kinda sad to me.

I was in middle school when “Lost Boy” came out, we had three different girls sing it in our school talent show. Not together, three separate acts.

@@salma.elsaid Are we sure that's NOT what it is? I agree with Todd, this sounds like a dull-as-shit self insert fanfic. If it's supposed to be a tribute song, it's being done WRONG. There's a right way to do a tribute song,(as another commenter has said),and there's a wrong way to do it. Ruth B's song, is the WRONG way to do it. Plus, her name makes her sound generic as hell. Also, if this is a tribute song, it doesn't automatically mean the song will be any good. But, I like your interpretation of this dull-as-shit song, dude/lady.

The appeal of Lost Boy is that the somber tone tricks the young listener into thinking that it's more mature and there's a deeper meaning to it. Despite the fact that, even if there is a deeper meaning to it, that deeper meaning would be based on a fundamental misunderstanding of the point of the Peter Pan story: you don't actually want to be a Lost Boy. The fact that Peter Pan and the Lost Boys never grew up is supposed to be a bad thing
People in 2016: This is the worst year in history.
2020: *Hold my Corona*
Also people like to reminisce about Summer '16 as a great summer where great music came out when in reality people hated that year back then

To me, the worst song on this list is Peter Pan. The way that the "artist" sings about the story just sounds so bored and detached that it becomes insulting to fans of the original story, as well every good adaptation of the story. I just...ugh.
Lulu Calliope To be fair, I think Lost Boy is supposed to be a metaphor for suicide, seeing the sad tone and quietness. It still sucks, but I got a soft spot for P Pan.
Dude the original was a written and published pedo fantasy.
Rainman Slim doesn't change the fact that people still like it I mean the original little mermaid involved a really down beat ending but that doesn't make me hate the story of the little mermaid besides the authors wife actually said that she didn't think he was attracted to anyone woman man or child
I thought that song was good, but that's because it was different.

The second time I heard it, I felt overcome by terror because my subconscious keeps insisting that there's some creepy hidden meaning.

It’s fun watching people call 2016 the worst year ever and think “the worst year so far.”
I'm from the future and we think the same thing about you
Calling 2016 the worst year in history is laughable nowadays. There is published material taking shots at 2016.
I hate all the artists who just play piano and sing softly. It's so boring, dull, and horrible. I've heard it so many times, and I hate it.
It's fine if they actually have anything interesting to say, but it's usually cliche melodrama
Joe Woods I've only heard cliche melodrama. It's even worse when it's a person singing softly on a guitar.

Yup. She also singlehandedly made the worst Peter Pan related piece of media ever!
@@shawnfields2757 AND THAT'S NOT AN EASY FEAT!
@@YouCanCallMeXoe No, it definitely isn't. People in the comments say she made the song for her dead brother who died and loved Peter Pan. While I'm sorry to hear that, it doesn't mean the song itself is automatically good. The song is still boring as shit.
No. There's a song Ed Sheeran made with some other woman that appeared on one of Todd's worst list. That is the most boring song. Lost Boys is bad, but at least it has a basic rhythm. The Ed Sheeran song is milk on white bread levels of bland.
@@jeremyusreevu237 You mean the song, "Perfect", with Beyonce, right? Yeah, I disagree. While I despise beyonce, it's only her version with Ed Sheeran that sucks. Ed by himself on the song isn't too bad. A bit corny, and had a bunch of romantic cliches, but the song itself isn't too bad. But like Todd said, that version forces you to imagine Beyonce and Ed Sheeran as a couple, which makes me want to puke(I added that last part in myself, because, blegh!) As hot as beyonce is, her music makes her seem very, very annoying. And Ruth B's awful Peter Pan song is STILL the most boring song, and worst Peter Pan related anything ever made or witnessed by humanity, 'nuff said.
"Machine Gun Kelly" that name is trying WAY TOO HARD
Cyber Kirby Thats a name of a real gangster from the Prohibition Era.
Jay Romeo Yeah but MGK is not a gangsta rapper at all or remotely threatening.

I think the appeal of Daya is the fact that she, like Lorde when she made it big, was 17 when she had her first hit. "Woooow, she's so young and is able to sing even though she's so young! Can you believe a teenager can do something as well as an adult? Amazing, give her a record deal!"
Sparkyisheretoparty I love how you assume any pop singer can actually sing.
Sparkyisheretoparty lorde >>>>>> any of her wannabes
Sparkyisheretoparty Lorde had amazing self-awareness and insight and none of the pretentiousness. It bashes some of the artifice of culture/materialism but doesn't pretend that they're awesome either.
The difference is that Lorde's lyrics were great, and she wrote the songs

Todd being happy about Vine shutting down is so beautifully poetic in the age of Tick Tock
Why do all the female singers in the past couple years sound exactly the same?
Secret Steve they're clones. Well, they might as well be
Secret Steve little thing called illusion of choice. Artists are treated like brands and they try to brand them with a certain image depending on the market to their voice. If a star such as Lorde hit it big they try to tap into that and so on and so forth. Even bands so far back as the 50s were all trying to be the Platters or whatever trio/quintet group that was out there. That is until rock hit the scene and everyone is all just trying to compete for a more vast audience. Music isnt just a list. Its a spectrum, and it changes alongside society the way i see it.
Because they do and people don't like diversity in singing styles anymore.
Because they don't put any effort into their singing. They just care about making themselves look hot and shaking their boobs and ass at people to make them forget that the singing's crappy. Take Ariana Grande. She just wants all men to be so turned on by her shaking her tits in their faces that they'll ignore the fact that she's a horrible singer.

A G you can have somber and slow songs that are way more well written than lost boy. Lost boy is very generic, and produced to appeal to the masses. There's a difference between somber and boring/poorly written. Also I don't agree that boring generic songs are popular amongst the indie fans. If you want to listen to a band that does slow songs that aren't generic af or boring and are actually well written check out the indie bands grizzly bear or alt j.

Exactly. It may be the most boring song of all time.
It makes me happy that a year later after Todd pondered/worried if Lorde didnt have longevity he put one of her follow up songs as his #1 best of the year.
If ever there was an expression to sum up Vine, "You ugly. You yo'r daddy son," seems to be competent.

You know, Peter Pan would kill the Lost Boys when they got too old. The first one to escape him was Captain Hook and Hook tried to save as many of them as his could, which is where he got his pirate crew from.
Also, #7 gives me conniptions.
As much as an guy attempting child murder could be considered a good guy, I suppose so.
If a child is hundreds of years old is he really still a child?
umm no. That is not cannon. There is a line about thinning out the lost boys but is vague and can be interpreted multiple ways including killing th boys but that is your interpretation and not fact. I read the book in 2016.
That's just various darker retellings, not actual canon.
The tragedy of Peter Pan is that he never grows up and forever hindered by the detriments of childhood. His life, though prolonged, is not a life. It's a game. He never experiences what it's like to actually live a fulfilling life, it's one stuck during the years of preadolescence. He never gets to meet his sweetheart or have kids of his own or build a life for himself. He doesn't know what it's like to lead a rich fulfilling life because he's too afraid to.
I've read all of the original plays and novel. The darkness is overblown by conspiracy theorists on the internet.

Looking back at Machine Gun Kelly in this video to his career now, it’s safe to say that the only good thing he’s ever done is Megan Fox.
I remembered liking Bad Things, looking back I realize it was really only the chorus. MGK's verses were 'turrible'
I actually like MGK #estallday #lacethefuckup but I just couldn't care for Bad Things mostly because it's just a mediocre song about MGK's BDSM fetish. My real problem with MGK is why the hell do they promote *that* mediocre trash over better MGK songs like "Gone" (which is a much better version of Eminem's "Mockingbird"), "Invincible", "A Little More Love" (a much better suicide prevention song than Logic's mediocre 1-800 bullshit), "Go For Broke", "Hollywood Whore", "Glass House", and etc and etc? That is straight-up bullshit!
BURN!!!! 😂😂😂😂😂
Aaaand he failed that too lmao
2 Things about "Bad Things"
1. That name "MachineGunKelly" reminds me of GunvsGun.
2. My mom absolutely HATES that song, and she kinda liked Fight Song. Yeah. 😕
Hey, Master of Puppets is sexy. You've never Metallica and chilled?
Hey, here's a story for ya - 2016 was my last year of intermediate school (NZ equivalent of middle school) and at the end of the year we had our leavers' dinner. Everyone had to perform something that night (it was a small school, there were about 40 of us in our year) and as expected most people not part of a group performed a song - lots of white guys with acoustic guitars and white chicks with pianos. One such white girl with a piano performed 'Lost Boy'. At the time I assumed that it was an original song that she wrote simply because of how basic it was - I thought "oh cool, an original song and not another cover of some stupid pop song".
Fast forward a few years and I watch this video. I remember thinking "wait, Lost Boy was like, an actual song? That girl didn't write it herself? Jeeesus"

Lost Boy should have been first. That song was written solely for edgy middle schoolers to cover it while playing the same three chords on piano
Generally whenever I hear a duet of the woman singing the chorus, and the guy rapping the verses, I just groan because the songs end up being dragged down by the guy. My best example is I Hate U I love U. Besides the U part making me wanna punch my screen, the chorus is actually good. At least I like it. Then Mr Whothefuckcares comes in and rhymes shit with shit.... 4 times. Thats basically the story with those types of songs all year, and it's kinda sad to me.
that's how i feel with airplanes and love the way you lie and ANY SONG WITH PITBULL IN IT
Like "You and I", I despise that song
Well, that song did make it to #2 on the list
people back then: 2016 IS THE WORST!
people in 2020: well shit
I personally Loved this year Music Was Catcy, Sports was at it's peak, and the world just Seemed more positive
Might I just mention here that I have a deep and abiding love of the "NOT A RHYME" button?
Yeah, but when the Not A Rhyme alarm starts to dis-avow itself, it was a really bad year.

Bosh Force One you predicted most of them
You got 5/10
Peri Flores that’s very true
You actually almost did it
Thunder and Congratulations are so catchy though its hard for me to see them on a worst pop song list
