@@Ash-ws8yq I like it. But mostly because it has energy and interesting (read curious if not 'good') musical premise. That said the lyrics really do make him sound like a teenage virgin.

Can't believe Todd managed to write both the greatest trap song of all time ("Waffle Iron/Buffalo") and the greatest country song of all time ("I Literally Tried to Fuck A Tractor") within the span of 7 minutes
"Slow hands, like sweat dripping down our dirty laundry" is the most disgusting imagry I've ever heard from a song. Ew. Ew. Ew forever, ew times infinity.
I want to believe that its just a really badly mixed metaphor. Sweat as in effort/hard work and dirty laundry like dirty secrets. As in they're both cheating on someone and trying to be super covert about it.
Nah. Every guy under the sun still wants to fuck Harley quinn. Well, at least, somebody dressed up like her, what with her being fictional and all. You know what I mean.
"Buffalo Buffalo Buffalo" sounds like a brilliant pitch for a Weird Al song. Remember "Bob"? There's just the question of what on earth you'd do for the verses.
I work at a little hardware store in West Virginia that mainly caters to old country folks and the children of those old country folks. And you dont know pain until you've listened to "Body like a backroad" twenty five times in one 8 hour work day. Yeah. I counted.
jfc my fucking condolences listening to just snippets of it has me fantasizing about shooting sound systems with a glock, and i don't even own/like/use firearms.
Is anyone *really* ready for how many tiny stick jokes Lil Dicky can put on a 3 minute rap? Someday someone should tell him there are other things he can make jokes about. It would blow his mind I'm sure.
seigeengine Uh, not really? That just means I'm following people who post that stuff, and in literally every case I did not start following them for that stuff. Like it doesn't say anything about all of Lupa's followers that they see a lot of Quantum Leap on their dashboard other than that they're following Lupa who likes Quantum Leap. I guess it does technically say that they like someone who likes Quantum Leap, but that doesn't REALLY say much about them.
+Banjo Peppers I love how you're so fucking stupid you say "not really," and then turn around and admit I'm right. Leave it to a speshul snowflek to try to argue who they associate with and pay attention to doesn't say anything about them personally.
irockleftsocks13405 I unfortunately listened to Zayn's album, and while it was a little tryhard, I could grasp the idea of him having had sex. I think Niall Horan's face is just too bland and dopey (whereas Zayn has like, a nice jawline going for him), and Slow hands, as Todd said, sounds like dadrock. But other than Zayn, I can't imagine Liam or Harry or Louis being grown men and having sex. I think its bc they came to popularity when I was really young and what you said about the boy next door image.
I kind of think this list unintentionally proved a huge problem with mainstream pop radio: all of the hits are made by the same handful of people. Imagine Dragons is on here twice, Ed Sheehan is on here twice, Taylor Swift is on here THREE TIMES. I don’t think Todd has ever had a list with that many repeat offenders. You wanna know why pop music is sounding more and more the same? You wanna know why it feels like pop music doesn’t matter? It’s because billboard keeps pushing the same cookie cutter artists over and over year after year.
Very true. There's always been the sellout pop songs in the mainstream since the 50's, but it was by all kinds of different people that came and went. Now it's pretty much monopolized by handful of monoliths.
I'm not so sure about that, particularly in rap, as the internet and sites like SoundCloud have significantly lowered the bar on becoming an artist resulting in awful artists that somehow become popular like Lil Peep and Lil Xan. This has also resulted in record labels being desperate to sign anyone even vaguely popular in an age where more artists than ever are succeeding without a label than ever before, thus we end up with shit like Atlantic signing Danielle Bergoli who can now claim to have an actual rap career
@@joshuafernandes6592 to each his own, I guess, but personally can't stand his music. IMO, his whole sadboy schtick kinda gets old and seems kinda phony, like he almost seems to fetishize depression like it's a cool phase rather than a serious issue
@@Forever_Rayne Please yes. I actually enjoyed 1989. I wasn't a fan of "Shake It Off" and thought "Bad Blood" was horrendous, but got into songs like "Style", "Welcome to New York", "Are We Out of the Woods" and "Blank Space". So much so that, when I saw her debut album on sale at a gas station a couple of months back, I decided to give it a try. I'm not much of a country fan, but two things are abundantly obvious: the girl knows her way around a melody and can come up with really incisive lyrics (e.g. "Picture to Burn") when the mood takes her. So WHY DEAR GOD did she go down a musical path that is defined by inane repetition of both lyrical and melodic phrases? I thought the "This isn't who you are" speech was the stuff of weak plot devices in less than stellar movies, but I honestly think I could give it to a thirty year old girl on the other side of the planet who I've never met!
I'm so glad to see someone else see the reason why the Suicide song doesn't work. Going "Woo!" in a song about killing yourself. Way to miss the mark by a friggin solar system.
I mean, I'm suicidally depressed, and I use humour as a coping mechanism, but yeah, it's not jokey-joke time when your song's title is the suicide hotline.
I like the song for the most part and I do think it comes from a place of sincerity and it's really emotionally effective. But that one line in the chorus nearly ruins it for me. "Who can relate!? WOO!" It sounds so pandering and it kills the atmosphere completely. It's almost as if some record executive said to Logic in the studio, "Hey, this song is kind of a bummer. Can't you do something to liven it up a bit so we don't depress the moms and kids?" And Logic was like, "Um, okay. I'll just shout something during the chorus."
munromister777 - Incidentally, Alesia Cara's verse on the Suicide song is easily the most tolerable she has ever been. Yeah, I've tried to listen to Alesia Cara, but I just can't get into her. She seems talented and I'm sure that she'll release better material as she grows older, but I hate her screeching voice that has no bass or depth to it and she comes off as really pretentious in her songwriting. "Look at how deep I am! I'm so real!"
@@Sparklegrim11 it is technically an lgbtq+ acceptance song in some spots, but it's a totally tone-deaf and sort of condescending one imo. we still face hate crimes and even murder around the world, Taylor comparing those sorts of struggles to the mean comments she gets sometimes is total false equivalence.
Nicci Garver He covers that, IN HIS REVIEW of the song. Frankly, as a queer person, I don’t care so much about the “pro-lgbt” part as much as I fucking LOVE singing the chorus. It’s on my playlist right next to “I Don’t Fuck With YOU” and all of Ludacris’ work.
I honestly cant imagine Shape of You being about sex, even if it IS about that. It just comes off as a dopey love song, and I'm kinda okay with it because of that
He literally only mentions sex one time in the chorus. Other than that, it's just a cute song about infatuation and the mundane buildup to a relationship.
I think I can also write the lyrics for I Literally Tried To F*ck a Tractor This One Time: Tried to f*ck a tractor Banged it in the backyard It took it in the back door Had to lube up with lard Tried to f*ck a tractor Banged it in the backyard It took it in the back door Had to lube up with lard Got tires like HONEY Good wheels on the street Not in it for the MONEY And I wanna be discreet Tried to f*ck a tractor Banged it in the backyard It took it in the back door Had to lube up with lard Got a functioning MOTOR And drives all nice Neighbor’s such a toter Can’t roll the dice Tried to f*ck a tractor Banged it in the backyard It took it in the back door Had to lube up with lard
@@monkakonga4305 To give a visual representation of mumbling the lyrics, I suppose. I rapped it to myself just now with some groany sounds at the end of each line while not opening my mouth throughout and gotta say it‘s a real banger, eh
Let's be real..... If you looked at a song titled Gucci gang and saw it was by a guy called lil pump who looks like that........ Did you expect it to sound like anything else
I know Look What You Made Me Do is a terrible song. I know its awful, it's got nothing good about it. But goddamnit I love that song and I don't even know why.
I have this weird nostalgic appreciation of it. I never liked Britney Spears music, but I certainly heard a lot of it in my youth on the radio. So Look What You Made Me Do just reminds me of that style of music and I kind of like it for that. And I basically like everything about it musically EXCEPT for that chorus. The ambient sounds, that key melody, the build up on the pre-chorus that falls flat with the chorus, and the bridge. It just takes me back to the pop music of the early 2000s. And that is the reason I like it.
Same though, ngl I never heard that song at number one till now and I actually really like it, not in a 'its shit but I like it' way but in a 'why the hell is this at number one, it's rly Good's kind of way...
Because off all of those butt-country acts, that's even been made fun of by country artists like Willie Nelson, Zac Brown, Alan Jackson, George Strait, Dale Watson, Brad Paisley, Travis Tritt, Billy Joe Shaver and Ray Price.
Body like a backroad bothers me because i cant even tell what makes it country and not pop. For a pop song, sure go for it, it has the right style. Does country just come when you mention a truck and beer?
His voice is twangy as fuck but uh honestly yeah mentioning certain shit (back roads, beer, home towns, girls & their legs, etc) in a twangy voice... thats all there is to country now i guess.
The only reason it's the number one selling country song EVER is because it's straight up not country. Like go ahead and put old town road in that category, but I don't get it.
I had this big row with my best friend about it, as he loved it but I absolutely hate it. If id heard it for the first time and youd said it was a parody, I’d believe you.
BLaBR passes the Weird Al Test for me: I can't think of a way that parodying it would make it any more bizarre. This is a feat that only such legendary oddities as 'Short People,' 'Crank Dat' and of course 'MacArthur Park' have accomplished, so I have to give Sam Hunt props for that.
Frederick Shaibani - "Swish Swish" didn't make the Year-End list, so it doesn't qualify. The song flopped hard. Besides, am I the only one who actually likes "Swish Swish"? The production is amazing, it has a fun vibe, and Nicki Minaj has a kickass verse as always. The lyrics are kind of weird, but I don't care really. It's a really fun song and I don't see why so many people hated it. Honestly, I think that everyone let the cheesy music video cloud their opinions on the actual song. Which I also don't get: Katy Perry has had cheesy music videos before. It's her thing. And it was a lot of fun. It's a music video. You're not supposed to take it that seriously. Do you people just not like fun?
Glad you mentioned the "Who Can Relate _whoo!_ " thing. Like, wtf is your message? "I'm excited that someone else is suffering as badly as I am!" ...???
Hasan Abdul-Jabbaar _Maaaaaybe_ it was aiming for a "I'm hiding/pushing down my actual suffering with a veneer of joking self-deprecation" thing, but that's a bit of a stretch.
Yeah.... that song pisses me off. Dude actually doesn’t even have the same disorder he’s singing about and apparently his marriage helped him make a full recovery anyway.... gtfo and sing about what you know!!
You know...That _does_ make sense. And I'm willing to accept it since I'm no stranger to misinterpreting song lyrics. But hearing the first time it just really threw me off. The message of the song is great...But I feel the _energy_ is misguided at times
She practically is! "Black hearted evil/brave hearted hero/I am, I am all of me/" I loved it when I was fifteen, but all the more reason I know when someone's hitting close to it.
Welcome back to One Hit Wonderland, where we take a look the career of artists known for only one song. And today we are gonna be looking at "Waffle Iron" by... me. *sighs and facepalms*
Best Zingers: "Walking Testicle; Sam Hunt" "When I say 'SELF' you say 'HARM' "Most of us won't do anything for as long as Jason DeRulo has sucked" "Oh, it's like Iggy Azalea never left us at all"
Every time I see/hear the new Taylor Swift thing that she's put out, I think "well, she's just a kid. She'll grow up and mature past all this silly teenage melodrama before long". And then I remember she's in her late 20's and has not magically remained 16 years old for the past 10 years even though that's the way she registers in my brain. It's embarrassing to watch.
I used to like Taylor Swift back when she was country from the start, and then right up until now, it turned into a Britney Spears-esque vibe. The last 2 songs are both on the list, and I hope the Kidz Bop Kids would beat these two songs "Look What You Made Me Do" and "Ready For It" and I hope these two will end up on the upcoming "Kidz Bop 37" album which will be coming out on January 19th. These two Taylor Swift songs never made it to the iHeartRadio's Top 100 of 2017 year-end survey.
When "Kidz Bop 37" comes out by next week, they will blow up two original versions and replace it with Kidz Bop versions of "Ready For It" and "Look What You Made Me Do" to make it sound bubble gum.
I mean... Ice at least makes sense; it SOUNDS opulent and rich instead of like you're trying to dip your fucking expensive-ass jewelry in a substance usually reserved for salads and chicken wings.
With “Starving” I just picture her singing about Taco Bell and the song becomes infinitely more listenable. Oh Taco Bell, you do so many things to my body.
The fuck is “you do things to my body” supposed to mean anyway Like, he turns you on? He shags you? It’s a love song my dude, you’re a grown woman, I already assumed that was the case. why’d you gotta phrase it like you were introduced to sex as a concept like yesterday
"Ed Sheeran sounds like acne," may be the most awesome criticism of a musician that has ever been uttered. I didn't laugh when I heard it. I was too numb from its sheer brilliance.
man, Zedd didn't really try very hard in Starving. One of the things I really liked about Zedd was that you could easily tell his songs apart from any other electronic artist, it's one of the reasons Clarity stood out so well, but in Starving I just felt like he was trying to be everyone else
People have been saying Grey even ghost-produces for Zedd. Don't know if that's true, but it would literally just mean Zedd's name was on there for name recognition.
You're absolutely right! Zedd hasn't produced one of his own songs since True Colors came out. He's a shell of what he used to be, this song doesn't have a shred of his style in it.
No one, she is a singer not a rapper. When it comes to rapping she is so atrocious that she makes Fergie and Iggy Azalea sound talented by comparison!!!
@@nitromagilou597 ...huh? Terrible singer? I mean, to each their own, but REALLY? However, terrible rapper doesn't quite cover it. Literal death of hip-hop is closer.
I think this is the first time multiple artists appear multiple times on one of Todd's lists. 2 entries by Ed Sheeran, 2 entries by Imagine Dragons, and FUCKING 3 entries by Taylor Swift!
ULGROTHA Ok, I concede that point. I misread the post. However we’re both wrong. He actually had multiple artists on his worst of 2012 list. Train and Rihanna made it twice.
So many fantastic zingers in this one. "Walking testicle Sam Hunt" "He is incapable of projecting anything other than perpetual virginity" "Most of us will not do anything for as long as Jason Derulo has sucked"
2017 was so forgettable that I'm watching reviews of 2016 music (way too late for some reason) and thinking, "Oh yeah i remember that from like 4 months ago." And then I remember it's 2018. 2017 was so bad that 2016 left more of an impression on me.
I swear that the chorus for "Body Like a Back Road" has been used in a hit song at least 6 times in my lifetime. Like I got major deja vu from listening to it. I can't remember where I heard it, but i think it previously had the line "shout it from the rooftops" in it.
Body Like A Back Road was GOD AWFUL!!! It was originally going to be my worst hit song of 2017, when I was first building that list last year. Then Taylor Shit came out with an absolutely Unholy Abomination in Look What You Made Me Do, that Sam Hunt got knocked down to #2 in the last quarter of last year. Once I reached the chorus of LWYMMD I instantaneously realized I had to change my plans on my number 1 pick at years end.
@Ella Judge LDS Sorry its 8 months late but yeah that was definitely it. That song was inexplicably huge in my country (New Zealand) some time in the early 2010's (I was like 11 or 12 so my memory of the exact time is kinda fuzzy) but yes that was the song. And come to think of it there was also "My House" by Flo Rida which used the same chorus as well. God does this make me feel old.
Looking back, I think "Who can relate? Whoo!" was, in fact, deeply in tune with modern youth culture. I've seen a lot of tumblr kids making endless dark jokes about wanting to die (to paraphrase Family Guy when it was good, not wanting to kill themselves, just not wanting to be alive anymore in this shitty world), and even saying things like "I have to be careful about making deadpan jokes about wanting to die with people I don't know well IRL because people don't get tumblr culture".
Can we expect "Waffle Iron Buffalo" to be on your eventual album, alongside hits such as "Firewood" and "I'm Out of Salsa?" Geez. Go Nab Migraines, Ed Sheer Cliff and T-Swizzle all got on here twice (technically 3 times with Taylor). Ouch.
As someone who has completely given up on popular music I've seen like none of these before and... Did Taylor Swift just do a music video in the Ghost in the Shell aesthetic? What the fuck, does Scarlett Johansson have this much impact?
Poison Bang Does she have impact? I dont think I saw a movie fizzle out as quickly as GitS and Taylor has ripped off sci fi movies concepts for her music videos before. Just saying
Well that's what I was asking. I dunno what the fuck Taylor Swift has done before and I would assume someone like her would only watch Ghost in the Shell for someone like Scarlett Johannson.
Honestly I thought it was a pretty decent movie. It had the aesthetic of the original anime with a variation of the plot of GitS: Innocence. Less philosophical than the original, and more of an action blockbuster, but better on average than most blockbusters, and better by a mile than most western adaptations of anime or Japanese films.
“I can only hope new Taylor gets killed by newer Taylor, and newer Taylor is better than this.” If you read this as two iteration jumps. That gets us to Folklore and is a super decent prediction.
Taylor swift really disappointed me. 1989 really did have pretty good artistry and lyrics. I never really liked her but I sort of assumed she was evolving. Her new album proves that she hadn't :(
reluctantmuggle I’ve never been a Taylor fan, but when I heard “New Taylor”, I decided to give it a fair shake. As soon as I heard the hater talk, NOPE. WE’RE DONE HERE.
The singles weren't great, but I kinda liked the album. Call It What You Want is sweet, and This Is Why We Can't Have Nice Things is just the right amount of petty.
Yeah, exactly - I mean, the thing that irks me so much about Taylor is she dominates the pop music genre by barely even trying, but somehow she just can't get over the whole 'people don't like phonies' thing. So she's got a lot of 'haters' - maybe she needs to stop concerning herself with what everyone else thinks of her and what she does and starts acting like a decent human being?
No believe me, she did evolve. No matter what you thought of her previously, this is much different from anything she’s ever done. And for the record, yes, it’s worse than anything she’s ever done.
They should sue. Bad for their image. Even if I wanted to waste my money on their crap I wouldn't for the simple fact so many pretentious jackasses sing about it.
I read that Sam Hunt actually is retiring from music because it almost ruined his relationship with his now wife. He hasn't totally confirmed it but it seems that way now.
It's cute that you've only just realized this. I know that probably sounds condescending, but I don't mean it like that; I've been there about equally obvious-in-hindsight things.
It still baffles me we live in a world where there are people whining about how their food has too much energy in it. Talk about tone deaf trash. Speaking of which, pop means popular, yes. Ignore dipshit Smegman over here.
I think it's like, fairly recent? Imo, many of her new songs from Reputation just got lost among each other since they're all depressing electronic edgy crap.
True story: for a while, I thought Slow Hands was titled Small Hands and my first thought was about the unfortunate occupant fo the White House at the moment.
Douglas Rau Same, but I thought he meant small hands as in delicate and feminine. When my friends found out it ended up becoming an inside joke because they found it so hilarious
Body Like a Back Road is the fucking dumbest most nonsense idea for a comparison it just baffles me. I'm looking forward to his follow up single Body Like my Toilet Bowl which I bet he's also quite familiar with.
At least a toilet bowl is curvy, smooth and I actually look forward to spending time with it. A back road is something you stare at after it rains and you just wish someone would bury it in tar and gravel.

But other than Zayn, I can't imagine Liam or Harry or Louis being grown men and having sex. I think its bc they came to popularity when I was really young and what you said about the boy next door image.
I legit thought he was one of the ones who actually has a child for a solid minute there. Zayn and Harry are the only ones I can ever keep straight.
there are websites for that I think, or you can listen to Don't, or maybe just don't try to imagine it... better for you

I kind of think this list unintentionally proved a huge problem with mainstream pop radio: all of the hits are made by the same handful of people. Imagine Dragons is on here twice, Ed Sheehan is on here twice, Taylor Swift is on here THREE TIMES. I don’t think Todd has ever had a list with that many repeat offenders. You wanna know why pop music is sounding more and more the same? You wanna know why it feels like pop music doesn’t matter? It’s because billboard keeps pushing the same cookie cutter artists over and over year after year.
Very true. There's always been the sellout pop songs in the mainstream since the 50's, but it was by all kinds of different people that came and went. Now it's pretty much monopolized by handful of monoliths.
I'm not so sure about that, particularly in rap, as the internet and sites like SoundCloud have significantly lowered the bar on becoming an artist resulting in awful artists that somehow become popular like Lil Peep and Lil Xan. This has also resulted in record labels being desperate to sign anyone even vaguely popular in an age where more artists than ever are succeeding without a label than ever before, thus we end up with shit like Atlantic signing Danielle Bergoli who can now claim to have an actual rap career
42Tesla nothing wrong with Lil Peep. Hes great
42Tesla have you listened to lil peep he's definitely not awful
@@joshuafernandes6592 to each his own, I guess, but personally can't stand his music. IMO, his whole sadboy schtick kinda gets old and seems kinda phony, like he almost seems to fetishize depression like it's a cool phase rather than a serious issue
That prediction of Taylor Swift made me uncomfortable.
Todd is wrong exactly 95% of the time, but the 5% percent when he's right, he's SUPER RIGHT.
@@ordinarychef It's where his broken clock lands. Some things are just that crystal clear to some people.
Can't wait for her inevitable return to the "roots" and "mature" sound in a couple years.
@@Forever_Rayne Please yes. I actually enjoyed 1989. I wasn't a fan of "Shake It Off" and thought "Bad Blood" was horrendous, but got into songs like "Style", "Welcome to New York", "Are We Out of the Woods" and "Blank Space". So much so that, when I saw her debut album on sale at a gas station a couple of months back, I decided to give it a try. I'm not much of a country fan, but two things are abundantly obvious: the girl knows her way around a melody and can come up with really incisive lyrics (e.g. "Picture to Burn") when the mood takes her. So WHY DEAR GOD did she go down a musical path that is defined by inane repetition of both lyrical and melodic phrases? I thought the "This isn't who you are" speech was the stuff of weak plot devices in less than stellar movies, but I honestly think I could give it to a thirty year old girl on the other side of the planet who I've never met!

I'm so glad to see someone else see the reason why the Suicide song doesn't work. Going "Woo!" in a song about killing yourself. Way to miss the mark by a friggin solar system.
I mean, I'm suicidally depressed, and I use humour as a coping mechanism, but yeah, it's not jokey-joke time when your song's title is the suicide hotline.
I like the song for the most part and I do think it comes from a place of sincerity and it's really emotionally effective. But that one line in the chorus nearly ruins it for me.
"Who can relate!? WOO!"
It sounds so pandering and it kills the atmosphere completely.
It's almost as if some record executive said to Logic in the studio, "Hey, this song is kind of a bummer. Can't you do something to liven it up a bit so we don't depress the moms and kids?"
And Logic was like, "Um, okay. I'll just shout something during the chorus."
It's kind of like making a song about body positivity, but then telling the people listening that they're beautiful on the inside.
D Coetzee - Removing that awful line would easily make the song a 4/5 for me. That's how much it kills the song.
munromister777 - Incidentally, Alesia Cara's verse on the Suicide song is easily the most tolerable she has ever been.
Yeah, I've tried to listen to Alesia Cara, but I just can't get into her. She seems talented and I'm sure that she'll release better material as she grows older, but I hate her screeching voice that has no bass or depth to it and she comes off as really pretentious in her songwriting.
"Look at how deep I am! I'm so real!"
“When I say *SELF* you say *HARM* ” I’M ACTUALLY DYING😂😂😂💀💀
no you aren't supposed to do that
Actually dying missed the point of the song. Do you need the title again? A hug?
I sort of have a stand up routine about ways to kill one’s self. Then again my sense of humour is extremely tasteless and I’m okay with it.
"I get the feeling we'll never see another song about her haters."
"You Need To Calm Down" says hello from 2019.
sparkle grim11 It’s both. First verse is about her haters, second is about LGBT acceptance
It’s a shit song that groups twitter hate and gay bigotry together as the same thing. It’s a fucking disgusting song.
@@Sparklegrim11 it is technically an lgbtq+ acceptance song in some spots, but it's a totally tone-deaf and sort of condescending one imo. we still face hate crimes and even murder around the world, Taylor comparing those sorts of struggles to the mean comments she gets sometimes is total false equivalence.
Nicci Garver He covers that, IN HIS REVIEW of the song.
Frankly, as a queer person, I don’t care so much about the “pro-lgbt” part as much as I fucking LOVE singing the chorus. It’s on my playlist right next to “I Don’t Fuck With YOU” and all of Ludacris’ work.
I (and the gays) HAVE TOO MANY HATERS!

Tried to f*ck a tractor
Banged it in the backyard
It took it in the back door
Had to lube up with lard
Got tires like HONEY
Good wheels on the street
Not in it for the MONEY
And I wanna be discreet
Tried to f*ck a tractor
Banged it in the backyard
It took it in the back door
Had to lube up with lard

I know Look What You Made Me Do is a terrible song. I know its awful, it's got nothing good about it. But goddamnit I love that song and I don't even know why.
Same, I 100% agree that the song is bad but I just like it for some reason!!
I have this weird nostalgic appreciation of it. I never liked Britney Spears music, but I certainly heard a lot of it in my youth on the radio. So Look What You Made Me Do just reminds me of that style of music and I kind of like it for that. And I basically like everything about it musically EXCEPT for that chorus. The ambient sounds, that key melody, the build up on the pre-chorus that falls flat with the chorus, and the bridge. It just takes me back to the pop music of the early 2000s. And that is the reason I like it.
The groove? Or maybe just because Taylor can still make you wanna sing-along and feel like you MEAN it?
It basically has the same rhythm as "Du Hast" and "Too Sexy (For My Shirt)" and "Bodies." You might like those more.
Same though, ngl I never heard that song at number one till now and I actually really like it, not in a 'its shit but I like it' way but in a 'why the hell is this at number one, it's rly Good's kind of way...
Country music is just SO much fun to mock.
Have you heard bo Burham's song about country music? Its So funny.
Because off all of those butt-country acts, that's even been made fun of by country artists like Willie Nelson, Zac Brown, Alan Jackson, George Strait, Dale Watson, Brad Paisley, Travis Tritt, Billy Joe Shaver and Ray Price.
Body like a backroad bothers me because i cant even tell what makes it country and not pop. For a pop song, sure go for it, it has the right style. Does country just come when you mention a truck and beer?
His voice is twangy as fuck but uh honestly yeah mentioning certain shit (back roads, beer, home towns, girls & their legs, etc) in a twangy voice... thats all there is to country now i guess.
At least Sam Hunt is a great singer.
I guess so
The twang
The only reason it's the number one selling country song EVER is because it's straight up not country. Like go ahead and put old town road in that category, but I don't get it.
Body Like a Back Road sounds like a SpinalTap song or a Bo Burnham joke.
Like the country song parody!
I had this big row with my best friend about it, as he loved it but I absolutely hate it. If id heard it for the first time and youd said it was a parody, I’d believe you.
BLaBR passes the Weird Al Test for me: I can't think of a way that parodying it would make it any more bizarre. This is a feat that only such legendary oddities as 'Short People,' 'Crank Dat' and of course 'MacArthur Park' have accomplished, so I have to give Sam Hunt props for that.

Frederick Shaibani When Nicki Minaj is the best part of a KATY PERRY song, you know it was bad. 💩
Frederick Shaibani - "Swish Swish" didn't make the Year-End list, so it doesn't qualify. The song flopped hard.
Besides, am I the only one who actually likes "Swish Swish"? The production is amazing, it has a fun vibe, and Nicki Minaj has a kickass verse as always. The lyrics are kind of weird, but I don't care really. It's a really fun song and I don't see why so many people hated it.
Honestly, I think that everyone let the cheesy music video cloud their opinions on the actual song. Which I also don't get: Katy Perry has had cheesy music videos before. It's her thing. And it was a lot of fun. It's a music video. You're not supposed to take it that seriously.

All of Taylor Swift's "identities" are phases most of us go through at the age of 14
Every time I see/hear the new Taylor Swift thing that she's put out, I think "well, she's just a kid. She'll grow up and mature past all this silly teenage melodrama before long". And then I remember she's in her late 20's and has not magically remained 16 years old for the past 10 years even though that's the way she registers in my brain. It's embarrassing to watch.
I used to like Taylor Swift back when she was country from the start, and then right up until now, it turned into a Britney Spears-esque vibe. The last 2 songs are both on the list, and I hope the Kidz Bop Kids would beat these two songs "Look What You Made Me Do" and "Ready For It" and I hope these two will end up on the upcoming "Kidz Bop 37" album which will be coming out on January 19th. These two Taylor Swift songs never made it to the iHeartRadio's Top 100 of 2017 year-end survey.
No, most people do not go through a new phase a month when we're 14. Well, some of us don't... ;)
When "Kidz Bop 37" comes out by next week, they will blow up two original versions and replace it with Kidz Bop versions of "Ready For It" and "Look What You Made Me Do" to make it sound bubble gum.

man, Zedd didn't really try very hard in Starving. One of the things I really liked about Zedd was that you could easily tell his songs apart from any other electronic artist, it's one of the reasons Clarity stood out so well, but in Starving I just felt like he was trying to be everyone else
I agree, Clarity is one of the best hits of 2013 imo. Its a shame that his songs have gone downhill.
Zedd LITERALLY didn't try hard/do shit at all. This song was Grey written all over it.
People have been saying Grey even ghost-produces for Zedd. Don't know if that's true, but it would literally just mean Zedd's name was on there for name recognition.
You're absolutely right! Zedd hasn't produced one of his own songs since True Colors came out. He's a shell of what he used to be, this song doesn't have a shred of his style in it.
The problem with Starving isn't zedd. Grey is the problem.

2017 was so bad that 2016 left more of an impression on me.
I swear that the chorus for "Body Like a Back Road" has been used in a hit song at least 6 times in my lifetime. Like I got major deja vu from listening to it. I can't remember where I heard it, but i think it previously had the line "shout it from the rooftops" in it.
Body Like A Back Road was GOD AWFUL!!! It was originally going to be my worst hit song of 2017, when I was first building that list last year. Then Taylor Shit came out with an absolutely Unholy Abomination in Look What You Made Me Do, that Sam Hunt got knocked down to #2 in the last quarter of last year. Once I reached the chorus of LWYMMD I instantaneously realized I had to change my plans on my number 1 pick at years end.
It also sounds like "My House" by Flo rida. I think.
The only song I know that has a line like that is Rooftops by Lostprophets
@Ella Judge LDS Sorry its 8 months late but yeah that was definitely it. That song was inexplicably huge in my country (New Zealand) some time in the early 2010's (I was like 11 or 12 so my memory of the exact time is kinda fuzzy) but yes that was the song. And come to think of it there was also "My House" by Flo Rida which used the same chorus as well. God does this make me feel old.

Looking back, I think "Who can relate? Whoo!" was, in fact, deeply in tune with modern youth culture. I've seen a lot of tumblr kids making endless dark jokes about wanting to die (to paraphrase Family Guy when it was good, not wanting to kill themselves, just not wanting to be alive anymore in this shitty world), and even saying things like "I have to be careful about making deadpan jokes about wanting to die with people I don't know well IRL because people don't get tumblr culture".
Can we expect "Waffle Iron Buffalo" to be on your eventual album, alongside hits such as "Firewood" and "I'm Out of Salsa?"
Geez. Go Nab Migraines, Ed Sheer Cliff and T-Swizzle all got on here twice (technically 3 times with Taylor). Ouch.
Don't forget "Itchy Leg" and his cover of "Enter Sandman".
No, no, "Itchy Leg" is just the second verse of "I'm out of Salsa."

As someone who has completely given up on popular music I've seen like none of these before and... Did Taylor Swift just do a music video in the Ghost in the Shell aesthetic? What the fuck, does Scarlett Johansson have this much impact?
Poison Bang Does she have impact? I dont think I saw a movie fizzle out as quickly as GitS and Taylor has ripped off sci fi movies concepts for her music videos before. Just saying
Well that's what I was asking. I dunno what the fuck Taylor Swift has done before and I would assume someone like her would only watch Ghost in the Shell for someone like Scarlett Johannson.
Poison Bang actually, after that all that negative press and reaction to it, I assume Scarlet Johassen is the only reason anyone went to see it
Honestly I thought it was a pretty decent movie. It had the aesthetic of the original anime with a variation of the plot of GitS: Innocence. Less philosophical than the original, and more of an action blockbuster, but better on average than most blockbusters, and better by a mile than most western adaptations of anime or Japanese films.
Poison Bang When I first watched the "...Ready for It?" music video, I literally thought the same thing.
I had never heard “Body Like A Back Road” until now... I see myself lucky.

“I can only hope new Taylor gets killed by newer Taylor, and newer Taylor is better than this.”

Taylor swift really disappointed me. 1989 really did have pretty good artistry and lyrics. I never really liked her but I sort of assumed she was evolving. Her new album proves that she hadn't :(
reluctantmuggle I’ve never been a Taylor fan, but when I heard “New Taylor”, I decided to give it a fair shake. As soon as I heard the hater talk, NOPE. WE’RE DONE HERE.
The singles weren't great, but I kinda liked the album. Call It What You Want is sweet, and This Is Why We Can't Have Nice Things is just the right amount of petty.
Yeah, exactly - I mean, the thing that irks me so much about Taylor is she dominates the pop music genre by barely even trying, but somehow she just can't get over the whole 'people don't like phonies' thing. So she's got a lot of 'haters' - maybe she needs to stop concerning herself with what everyone else thinks of her and what she does and starts acting like a decent human being?
No believe me, she did evolve. No matter what you thought of her previously, this is much different from anything she’s ever done. And for the record, yes, it’s worse than anything she’s ever done.

If New Taylor is what we get from "Reputation", then WE NEED OLD TAYLOR BACK! New Taylor is the fucking worst. 💩
I hope Waffle Iron tops the charts this year.
I dunno...I'm more of a Buffalo fan.
Got a Itchy Leg. Ah man what a classic right?
"Body like a... BACK ROLLS?!?"
miss alyssa edwards i see you 😂👀
“Oh honey- oh no.”
Can't the actual brand Gucci sue for copyright infringement? That'd be fun
Arcademan09 they would be dumb as fuck to think they could win that, mentioning a clothing brand is not infringing copyright at all
Are you kidding? This is the best free advertisement they could possibly hope for.
nah artistic license trumps the copy wright infringement well at least in the states
It has already been done by Mattel for Barbie and it lost the case.
They should sue. Bad for their image. Even if I wanted to waste my money on their crap I wouldn't for the simple fact so many pretentious jackasses sing about it.
In “Body Like A Back Road” I always thought he said “drive it with my asshole” instead of “drive it with my eyes closed”. Well then.
I read that Sam Hunt actually is retiring from music because it almost ruined his relationship with his now wife. He hasn't totally confirmed it but it seems that way now.
Must have been when he compared her body to a country back road.
Yeah wasn’t that originally an insult that he just threw in for some reason? Can’t say I’m surprised.
I was totally expecting Swish Swish or Bon Appétit to at least get a mention. Both sucked hard
Reese Lopez neither was a hit
Um Bon appetit peaked at 56, Gucci Gang peaked at 3...
And Katy Perry got on the best list... Who would have guessed?
I dunno Todd, as a guy with suicidal depression, I always "WOO!" along.
You okay man?
Holy shit pop music is short for popular music.
Pelcogo 🤔
No, it's because it's like soda pop. Empty calories, way too much sugar, and just enough phosphoric acid so you don't immediately puke it back up.
It's cute that you've only just realized this. I know that probably sounds condescending, but I don't mean it like that; I've been there about equally obvious-in-hindsight things.
It still baffles me we live in a world where there are people whining about how their food has too much energy in it.
Talk about tone deaf trash. Speaking of which, pop means popular, yes. Ignore dipshit Smegman over here.
I just had a sudden clarity Clarence moment is all. I'm 25 and i'm just now figuring stuff like this out. lol
Full disclosure, this is the first time I've heard "Ready For It". I didn't even know it existed until now. This was a hit?
I think it's like, fairly recent? Imo, many of her new songs from Reputation just got lost among each other since they're all depressing electronic edgy crap.
I'm with you, I didn't remember this song until he played it but apparently it got in the top 5 and spent 18 weeks on the top 100
WHEN I SAY SELF YOU SAY HARM
*crowd that all sound like Morty from Rick and Morty* HARM
True story: for a while, I thought Slow Hands was titled Small Hands and my first thought was about the unfortunate occupant fo the White House at the moment.
Douglas Rau Same, but I thought he meant small hands as in delicate and feminine. When my friends found out it ended up becoming an inside joke because they found it so hilarious
Jacksfilms made look what you made me do so much better
Richard Levin you can't fix trash, but he defiantly improved it
Finally, someone said it
I audibly cringed when I heard Body Like a Back Road playing.
You monster.
Body Like a Back Road is the fucking dumbest most nonsense idea for a comparison it just baffles me.
I'm looking forward to his follow up single Body Like my Toilet Bowl which I bet he's also quite familiar with.
At least a toilet bowl is curvy, smooth and I actually look forward to spending time with it.
A back road is something you stare at after it rains and you just wish someone would bury it in tar and gravel.
I really thought Katy Perry's Swish Swish would be up there
That song didn't qualify.
It has to be an actual hit
To be fair, without that unforgivable music video it's not that bad
Its basically a crap meme
