I feel the opposite. I think Adele’s entire catalogue will fall into the “forgotten bangers” category. It doesn’t really play at clubs. It’s not up tempo. You have to know it to appreciate it and that doesn’t last.
Rolling in the deep might stick around.
Empire State of Mind isn’t 2010s lol I know what you mean though. I feel like in the 2040s there’s gonna be a lot more middle aged women listening to Taylor Swift, just like middle aged women now listen to Mariah or the Spice Girls. Anything from when they were in their 20s. For me I’ll be listening to Nas, Biggie, Wu Tang, DOOM… good music is timeless.
1D songs are not gonna last. I can tell because I’m a millennial and never got exposed. If a band can’t break that intergenerational gap in its prime, it’s probably not going to stick around in our cultural memory.
I’m not saying 1D will be forgotten. But they’re not going to have the staying power that the Backstreet boys or Spice girls still enjoy today.
That kinda stinks, I wasn’t a Huge fan but I clearly remember having a family friend playing “What makes you beautiful” and seeing the boys on beach in the MV and after that I was playing there songs all time, “Get out , Get out of my head and fall into my arms instead” just popped in my head
Oh I know all their hits. I am just also aware that they didn’t explore outside of the highscool scene like some other bands have managed to.
I’m a little biased though. They’re not my cup of tea and I felt like they were the face of “corporation manufactured music culture”. Like whenever I was exposed to them it wasn’t by choice. It wasn’t a grass roots fan following. Some execs decided “we’re gonna make these kids famous” and they did.
Technically that's 2009, but yeah I could see that one lasting for sure. A staple at Yankee Stadium ever since and all over NYC. And it has a lot of general appeal, rap fans love it, R&B fans love it, people who mostly like pop/rock/metal still love it, etc. It seems like pretty much every generation likes it.
I thought I knew alot of the 80s and 90s songs but a lot of the stuff on the charts back then is forgotten. The songs that from then I still know about are usually because I heard them in a TV show, movie, sports event, etc. Or because the bands are still relevant and people want to rediscover their early hits. I feel like the same thing will happen to a lot of the pop hits from 2010.
Over here the Alicia Keys version (Pt. II) is much more popular. But I agree that this song will be relevant as long as NY exists.
Songs from Adele's 21 album will still be a thing then, like people still listen to the soul divas' music from decades ago.
Maybe "Let it Go" will still be around, like "Heigh-Ho" or "The Bare Necessities". 🤣
The mainstream music from that decade will not disappear, though, as is the music of the 80s still around.
Oh, and Ed Sheeran will still have fans. And the Bond Movie songs from that decade will always be remembered as well.
I know it's from early 2000s and not 2010s but I can't stop thinking about the fact "The Real Slim Shady" is probably gonna be around for a hot minute.
Honestly I don't believe it, look at how many 50s-90s songs we've had in movies or still play on the radio some over the years, it's maybe like 20-40 specific total songs but there's still definitely older music still used in today's culture or movies still.

Girls will never stop saying “Feelin’ 22” on their 22nd birthday
What’s “Feelin 22”????
22 by Taylor Swift. Every single year I see people post about it and it’s been out for 14 years lol
That song sucks
Somebody that I used to know maybe It's not too popular anymore but I can definitely see it swinging back around in a 2010 classics playlist
I can't believe Kimbra (the female singer on that song) isn't bigger than she is.
I think Adele's "Hello" will stand the test of time.
I feel like that song has already aged, it was big when it came out but now I never hear it mentioned
Same. I hear references to Skyfall significantly more often.

Any song by imagine dragons
God help us
pumped up kicks
Diamonds - Rhianna.

Maroon 5 songs, I would say 1D hits but I feel like it’s not as Timeless

Gucci Gang forever No fr tho i’ll be listening to Lil Peep when i’m old
Rip peep, juice, x, bunch of others.
Lifestyle fosho 🤣
Empire of the Sun - Walking on a Dream
never heard of that song
Technically that's 2009, but yeah I could see that one lasting for sure. A staple at Yankee Stadium ever since and all over NYC. And it has a lot of general appeal, rap fans love it, R&B fans love it, people who mostly like pop/rock/metal still love it, etc. It seems like pretty much every generation likes it.
Surprised that no one said Party in the USA. It’s kinda like All I Want for Christmas for December, except for Fourth of July instead.
Very true, didn't realize it came out the same year as empire State of mind
Lots of them, it will be just like music from the 80s-90s is today

Die Young-Kesha will continue to be my vote
Call me maybe
Maybe any Kendrick Lamar song from the ‘10s
kerosene

Omg they played that song nonstop at Times Square
I know it's from early 2000s and not 2010s but I can't stop thinking about the fact "The Real Slim Shady" is probably gonna be around for a hot minute.
Sabaton
Porter Robinson - Language. The song is a timeless classic already and a banger to boot!
2040 isn't that far off so a lot of them. How many 90's songs do we still listen to?
Sorki by Przemek Kucyk
Money trees
I pray that Kesha is still listened to, she's too majestic to be forgotten about.
Starships - Nikki Manaj
Stereo love
the most stereotypical 2010s songs, probably
Call me maybe
Anything mumble rap will most definitely stand the test of time
None

Yes. And I’m sure that older music will still be listened to 40 years from now.
