Both songs are reggae (or reggae-influenced or whatever they are) hits that hit #1 on the Hot 100 in the summer. Which song do you prefer?
"Cheerleader (Felix Jaehn Remix) - OMI
"Rude" - MAGIC!

Both to me are "OK, but not #1 deserving."
But Cheerleader gets my vote.

Rude. Still cannot stand the Cheerleader remix, although the original is somewhat listenable.

The Zedd remix of "Rude" is the lesser of the two evils. What is "Cheerleader"? An ode to wanting some pom-pom waving bleach blonde backseat bimbo? It makes me really sad that this got to number one. How? Who is buying it? Who likes it? Why?  |

I'm still burnt out on Rude since I heard it so much last summer, so I voted for Cheerleader.

Both are two of the better Pop songs we've had recently, but I think "Rude" is slightly better.

Wow, you really have issues with certain types of women, don't you? a) what's wrong with girls who wave pom-poms? b) what's wrong with girls who have bleach blond hair and c) bimbo? Really? Is this 1980? Anywho, I never took the song to mean an actual 'cheerleader' in that sense but rather someone who is supportive, who can and are called cheerleaders. It makes me sad when people insist on taking the lyrics at face value unless he has actually said he was singing about cheerleaders. In any case, the current lyrics flow better than "oh I think I found myself someone who supports me/she is always right there when I need her." ok. |

I mean, there's really no way to not get that, even if one just listens to the song casually in passing. It's pretty clear that it's metaphorical. By the way I just now realized that you're Max. lol wow. |

"Cheerleader" by far. "Cheerleader" is at least catchy and fun whereas "Rude" is one of the most insufferable hits of recent memory and an instant station changer.

"Rude" is somewhat tolerable; "Cheerleader" is not.

They're both mediocre but catchy. Cheerleader gets the edge from me.
