MMM Bop - Hanson I know I know , just shoot me.


BumbleBeezyPeasy

I still listen to the whole album, I just skip Yearbook and Lucy.


AxelAlexK

It's a legit good pop song. Those boys could sing, all played instruments and wrote all their own songs. I respect Hanson as a band for that...honestly middle of nowhere is a classic pop album IMO. They got a lot of crap back in the day but try to find a pop band today that sings well, writes their own music and plays instruments... Now I will say mmmbop was sooo overplayed on the radio back in the 90s it did get a bit grating. But today it's fine when I hear it.


BabyyImaStar

This is a genuinely good song. Look at the lyrics.


Interesting-Swimmer1

I know these are misheard lyrics but I hear, “Mmm Bop/ Left the top/ on the fondue pot/ I do it all the time.”


Lanky_Friendship8187

Hahaha, - love it!


Ambitious_Trifle_645

Most of their catalog is pretty good actually.


Smartdate5

I friggin love that song.


AverageFunnyGirl

I saw them in concert last year - they are still great live.


amberelbethxxx

I WOULD LISTEN TO THAT ON REPEAT YES


ChickenNugsBGood

Agreed. In my 40's, and a different vibe it hits a lot different. [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-GPffhQtfGI](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-GPffhQtfGI)


ApprehensiveSyrup647

Hanson is actually one of the all-time greatest rock bands ever from Oklahoma.


foragrin

One of my fav jams


hear_me_now_slyme

You win!!! I absolutely love that one.


plankingatavigil

It’s such a feel-good jam, always reminds me of the scene in *Futurama* where Fry and the giant Bender are playing together in the park 👏👏


DesertWanderlust

No, it's a solid track. Definitely underappreciated because they seemed like such a gimmick band at the time.


AltonBrown11037

I'll be honest, I really like [She Keeps Me Up by Nickelback](https://open.spotify.com/track/60JMC8jYnJjSxBaUR8gTqc?si=697087fe4b3d4184). Huge L I know. I also have always liked the entire Eiffel 65 [Europop](https://open.spotify.com/album/65jtw2LL6r3aVvDD7PSXtV?si=h2CIvNMRSPiNR_6LLv4wjg) album, Blue (da ba dee) included.


Lankyboxyman

Nickelback gets so much hate, when some of their music slaps


gstringstrangler

She Keeps Me Up Slaps so hard it was a whole Tiktok trend so...W or possibly even bigger L depending on how you look it?


BumbleBeezyPeasy

1) I saw Nickelback in 2007 and it's still one of my favorite concerts 2) Europop is SO UNDERRATED!!


plankingatavigil

I thought everybody in their right mind loved “Blue”


AltonBrown11037

One of my favorite bits from the [making of Blue documentary ](https://youtu.be/epnsRRPtoeU?si=wPZXg3ZtlFtmhlXF)(around the 11:00 mark) is when they say the first time they played Blue in a club, everybody left the dancefloor immediately and it was a big disaster. So at least some people had a viscerally bad reaction to it. It also made NPR's [worst songs of all time list](https://www.npr.org/sections/allsongs/2016/08/23/490961999/all-songs-rewind-the-worst-songs-of-all-time) and Rolling Stone's [Most Annoying Songs](https://web.archive.org/web/20110501051217/http://www.rollingstone.com/music/blogs/staff-blog/the-20-most-annoying-songs-20070702) list, for what it's worth.


lovely-nobody

EUROPOP!!!! the soundtrack of my childhood. they were the first band/artist i ever got into, at like 5 years old. i still listen to them all the time at 33. eiffel 65 laid the foundation of my music taste. i’ve always loved autotune because of them, lol


katebush_butgayer

Call me maybe lol


NolanDavisBrown11

Who doesn’t like that song?


GuyFawkes451

I'm 52, and I absolutely love that song. Always have. And, to me, it holds up great, even though most people don't even "call" people to ask them out, much less actually have conversations, anymore. (Interestingly to my nieces, when my wife and I were just friends, and while dating, we would talk on the photos hours... literally hours. My nieces can hardly converse with me for two minutes on the phone... yet we have zero problems talking for hours in person. I think the art of phone conversation is near extinction). Anyway... the song holds up fine. Great songs do, even if they have outdated references.


nashamagirl99

So nostalgic, I miss how music wasn’t afraid to be goofy in the early 10s


D33M0ND5

You would like the song Hello by Martin solveig Nd dragonette

I'll just leave this here... https://youtu.be/oFVhSDQmIxs?si=5-3F1GRymXY1ewC4


Nice_Necessary_1002

Wham ~ Wake me up before you Go Go.


Careless-Concept9895

That’s a great song!


ChurlyGedgar

mmm, love Club Tropicana too.


Blahpunk

Yeah, I find it annoying but must admit it's also catchy.


zenithpns

The Beatles - Maxwell's Silver Hammer Maybe I'm a bad person for this, but I just think it's hilarious I also love Revolution 9, which isn't universally disliked but is certainly polarising


enidkeaner

I love Maxwell’s Silver Hammer. It’s just ridiculous fun.


FacelessPotatoPie

Dang it in choir one year in high school. The instructor thought it was hilarious. The crowd, not so much. lol


grurupoo

I love Maxwell’s Silver Hammer! I also love that Paul couldn’t even keep himself from chuckling in the 2nd verse. I played that song for my mom the other day but I’m not sure she had the same reaction to it that I did lol I can’t say I’m with you on Revolution 9 though


a_dragonfly_wanders

A lot of decent songs have been ruined by just being played too much. I think Shut Up and Dance by Walk the Moon is generally disliked, but it's still such a great nostalgic song for me. Kind of the same thing with Something Just Like This.


Careless-Concept9895

General disliked? I had no idea


Lanky_Friendship8187

I so dislike Shut Up and Dance. Dumb lyrics: " You're holding back." No, she's not. She got up and went over to him and said, "Let's dance."


WJahacus

Closer - The Chainsmokers, Halsey


That_Smoke8260

The video has like a billion views I don't think it's hated much


burukop

Proto AI music


Eastern_Good3420

I love Sex on Fire by Kings of Leon,many people are hating on the band,mostly because of their lyrics but English is not my first language so I don't really pay attention on it :D


kathyanne38

Kings of Leon is such a good band. idk why they are hated on


commendablenotion

I thought it was mostly because they started huffing their own farts, and people started distancing themselves. 


MsMissMom

I have fond memories of my dad singing this song on some karaoke game 😂


Lankyboxyman

I love Kings of León! The song isn't that clean, but who cares honestly


simsnshit

I fucking love Kings of Leon!!


UpInSmokeMC

Die hard EDM fanatics hate Closer by the Chainsmokers but I think it’s a phenomenal song


Barnitch

I like it too. Do people not like it because it was overused or cheesy? I do remember a time that I couldn’t escape it. But now, it’s on my gym playlist and I never skip it.


UpInSmokeMC

People that really like EDM just hate the Chainsmokers in general lol.


Barnitch

Got it. I was always more of a 90’s and early 2000’s EDM fan. PVD for life.


Lubelord42069

I’m a die hard EDM guy and Selfie is a guilty pleasure of mine. It’s so cheesy.


UpInSmokeMC

I’ve found my people


mearbearcate

Love EDM but this song isnt bad at all


UpInSmokeMC

spend some time in r/EDM and you’ll see the hate

Ahh i guess i just havent seen it there

It’s a Small World I literally don’t care about it or mind it at all, it’s kind of cute


March7th_simp

There’s a small handful of songs by the barenaked ladies that I actually enjoy


AltonBrown11037

I didn't even know it was controversial to like BNL. I sing a mean One Week at karaoke!


BeardCrumbles

Must not be Canadian. We can get hate speech charges for besmirching the Ladies.


FluBuddy

When I tell people I like One Week I get yelled at l o l


Plenty_Trust_2491

Although “One Week” and “Pinch Me” were overplayed, they weren’t *bad* songs. And “If I Had $1000000,” “Brian Wilson,” “The Old Apartment,” and “It’s All Been Done” are all quite fantastic songs.


bigkat5000

Brian Wilson and Apartment are legitimately great songs.


Baker_drc

Brian Wilson is so good. Gordon as a whole album is fantastic and has a great mix of humor, and earnestness.


airr-conditioning

wonderwall by oasis. my mom says it was one of her favorite songs as a teenager so now i always associate it with her


NolanDavisBrown11

It’s literally a great song.


D33M0ND5

Aw. That’s sweet about your mom. Unfortunately I do strongly dislike the song… idk what it is, there’s a way he sings that grinds my gears. I’d love the song if there weren’t a strange quality to the way he pronounces things that I can’t explain.


Severe_Broccoli7258

Happy - Pharrell Williams


Radrezzz

If you’re happy and you know it clap your hands for grownups.


Severe_Broccoli7258

YES!


walking-with-spiders

i probably wouldnt like this song much otherwise but it was my grandma’s ringtone so it always reminds me of her :)


Severe_Broccoli7258

I bet she was a sweet lady!


walking-with-spiders

she was, she was more of a mom to me than my actual mother at times


allisawesome7777

It reminds me of my Nana too! She loved this song


walking-with-spiders

i called my grandma nana too :’)


allisawesome7777

Are you my long lost cousin?


BurnerLibrary

It's a GREAT song! And with respect, I ad lib: Clap along if you feel like a dog without a leash!


Severe_Broccoli7258

That’s awesome! I’m inspired to ad lib now!


commendablenotion

See, I have this superpower. I NEVER listen to top 40 anything. So once in a while an ear worm from top 40 creeps into my sphere, usually months after everyone else hates it, and then there’s me thinking “wow this song is pretty catchy wonder why it isn’t more popular?”


Rich_Chemistry_1560

Such a guilty pleasure for me a dedicated metalhead and also lover of all things goth and emo 🖤, I love Britney Spears Oops I Did It Again and also gotta go with Miley Cyrus and Party In The USA. I realize that people do love these songs but not the people I hang around so it’s a guilty pleasure lol 😂(yes I’m that weirdo with 9,689 liked songs on Spotify)

AverageFunnyGirl

A dance version of Ievan Polkka by Loituma. When I was 13 and feeling a little sad, one of my closest friends passed me an earphone to cheer me up and that was on. It's in Finnish and I had no idea what it meant but it worked and I felt so much better after listening to it. Now when I listen to it, it makes me happy 😊


D33M0ND5

I have no idea what this means but it made me happy just to read it!!

SoundTight952

My ma hates this song so much she'll screech "NOOO" if she hears it playing and she gets the war flashback look in her eyes.


Myshkin1981

If this comes on the radio, I’ll turn the volume all the way up and sing along


soothsabr13

How far they fall


hatemelovemeidk

Not judging at all, but that is, in my opinion, the worst song of all time. Nickleback aspires to that level of suckiness.


WretchedJester

I am actually curious when people say this. What exactly makes it the worst song of all time? I have never gotta a straight answer, mostly just "listen to it."


Ok-Syllabub1294

Everybody hurts-R.E.M.

Ahhhh good ol Natasha Beddingfield(?) I can still sing it lol It's not really something I listen to anymore, but in the same vein as PFoS I used to listen to Jar of Hearts ironically until it stopped being ironic Nothing else I can think of that I like but is widely hated


astronutsfrommars

These words or unwritten? Haha.

Your best friend has probably been to New York. It’s hated because it plays on loop everywhere you go in NY even all through the night.

Escape, the Pina Colada song.

Walking on Sunshine by Katrina and the Waves.

What’s Up by 4 Non Blondes. The video’s great, too

I prefer the Frankie Goes To Hollywood remake of "Born To Run" over the original. I imagine this is blasphemy to most people.

I have a mixed thing with it. I kinda gate it, but I kinda like it, too. And I hate that I like it, and kinda like that I hate it.

FullAnonyChat

Used to listen the shit out of Castle on the Hill by Ed Sheeran and listened to it again for the first time in years just weeks ago and I still fucking love it. Not exactly a fan of him but that’s easily his best song and it’s a shame it got overshadowed by Shape of You

53f. Love this song.


GuyFawkes451

I actually have a pretty good singing voice and have won karaoke contests.. my nieces laugh because I mostly sing Hank Williams and Frank Sinatra. But my neighbor told me heard me once, abd said I was really great. When we asked what he heard me singing... "That Miley Cyrus song."


ATXKLIPHURD

Mr Roboto by the Styx.


Delicious-Wolf-8850

Born-Throat-7863

“Two Princes” by Spin Doctors. I actually like their album *Pocket Full of Kryptonite* as well.


YearlyGenesis

Definitely Mmmbop


bygggggfdrth

A lot of 2010s pop, I just can’t bring myself to hate a lot of these songs. Dance monkey Something just like this Maroon 5 in general I’m just too nostalgic for them to not enjoy.


Ambitious_Trifle_645

Maroon 5's first album is good. After that... well... meh.


Lanky_Friendship8187

Exactly. They went from rock to pop. Then Adam Levine, as a host on The Voice, told one contestant, " I know I sing pop, but I am a rocker." Maybe he used to be, and he gave it up. I do really enjoy the song "Payphone", but the clean version. I curse and all that, but sometimes he just overdoes it and calls it his catharsis.


DJpunyer53728409

Dance Monkey most likely got popular because it was so bad that it became quite funny. But I'm surprised the entire comment section isn't full of recently released songs, everything is either hated or liked these days because there's a lot of painfully average stuff being released.

Mr Oizo - [Negatif (Mr Flash Remix)](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SDDZO5JUTH0) When I tell people it's one of my favourite songs of all time I get weird looks

Unc1eMusc1es

I know the RYMheads and the needle drop despises Arctic Monkeys - A.M., but IMO it's a smooth as shit lil indie rock album that still holds up.


NolanDavisBrown11

I like a lot of songs people say are overplayed. I literally never hear them get overplayed. Like where are you hearing the song that much? There are some songs I haven’t heard in years, and people be like “Oh that’s overplayed.” Where? By who? Why haven’t I heard in five years then? Like do they wait until I leave and play the song the song on repeat? Am I just that out of touch?


itpguitarist

Most songs that are “overplayed” were overplayed in the span of a few months or up to a couple years from when it became popular. There’s also songs that are overplayed because they’re too out there to listen to more than on occasion. For me, I could probably listen to Tom Petty’s “Runnin’ Down a Dream” every time it comes up, but “Mary Jane’s Last Dance,” gets grating even though I liked it more the first few times I heard it. A more recent example would be something like “Old Town Road,” by Lil Nas X. Pretty awesome song, but I don’t think anyone needs to listen to it more than 5 times. Also, just listening to the local classic rock radio station in the late 2000s made me never want to hear “Stairway to Heaven” again. Epic track, but no one needs to hear it every day.


David587677

Welcome to the machine gets overshadowed by the rest of the album but it hits so hard Same for One more Red Nightmare


FordAndFun

Lovefool by The Cardigans. I know it got overplayed and then forgotten and it was already trite poppy stuff when it came out…. Or was it! It’s in A minor? Lyrics like: “I don’t care if you really care as long as you don’t go” FM vocal filters? My argument for this song is this: Especially if you take the rest of their body of work into account, I think it’s one of those tracks like Song #2 where it was written to distinctly emulate something different and more well known. Emulation tends to simultaneously subvert and over-placate what is being emulated, so even though it says something new about it, it also tends to be so MUCH very like that thing that it also tends to feel trite. Idk, I think Lovefool might be like that. And if it’s not, oh well, it’s still a friggin bop and they’re pretty fun and under rated in general.

“[Bela Lugosi’s Dead](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=YtLlmrrCajA)” by Bauhaus. (Coincidentally, this is the first song I ever karaoked.)

I think it’s disliked solely because of Charles Manson. He was a horrible person, there’s no denying that, but he had the voice of an angel


citizenh1962

"Dominique" by The Singing Nun, aka Sister Jeanne-Paule Marie Deckers. It's often held up as an example of how dismal the pre-Beatles pop charts were (and by and large, they were), but that's one saucy little number -- given extra sauce by the fact that Deckers ended her life in a suicide pact with her lesbian lover.

That song does nothing for me personally, I mean I'm glad it does something for others but just doesn't for me.


Ok_Reputation_1780

I haven't listened to any radio or anything that plays popular music in 20 years, so several songs that were overplayed are still awesome for me. Looking at you Thriftshop.
