I know a lot of people hate it, but I love this song a lot. Peaked at 2 in 2016.

Horrific trash. Praise Rihanna & Drake for keeping this from becoming the worst #1 hit of all time.

Very nostalgic song, especially since it was smashing during my final semester of high school. Love the production, and how unique it sounded on the radio compared to everything else at the time. It truly “grabs you in”.

Insufferable garbage. I loathe every second of this mess. Handsdown one of the worst songs this decade.

It sounds good but the guy comes across as such a douchebag and it ruins the song

I am still traumatized by how awful this is, but then I remember they did that "Strip No More" song that was an even bigger abortion.

Even now I'm still wondering what horrible thing they did that caused them to be hated by most of America. One of the best songs of the year. Sad that 2 trash songs kept this off #1

I appreciate the message they're trying to tell in this song but it doesn't work and ends up coming as sappy. Also "remember life and then your life becomes a better one" is one of the worst song lyrics ever

Sad that 2 trash songs kept this off #1 Seems to me that people are just of the opinion that the song is garbage, nothing any deeper than that. As for me, I understand the criticisms that are levied against the song but I still like it a fair amount. The lyrics are questionable, the vocals are atrocious and the instrumental is tired, lackluster and drawn out. HOWEVER, the message of the song and the progression from "once I was 7 years old" through to "soon I'll be 60 years old" and then the reflective return to "7 years" at the end just get me. I like the song enough.

I absolutely despise this piece of garbage. Might be my least favorite song of 2016, even worse than Treat You Better or anything Meghan Trainor put out that year.
