How about it I say that I prefer both of those over Donโt Let Me Down. I think Donโt Let Me Down is a very meh song, but I like Hide Away and Sit Still, Look Pretty. Absolutely agreed with both of you. I'm pretty "meh" on "Don't Let Me Down" too, but love the other two.

The Don't Let Me Down hate is killing me. I love that song.
Also I think it's funny how quickly Pulse's opinion has changed on that song. It was literally #1 on the original 2016 ye rankdown. I learned that when I participated in the redo, when I had my old account.

My true favorite song that Daya has ever been involved in is RL Grime's I Wanna Know, which is just an upgraded version of DLMD. The drop melody is stronger, the percussion really hits without overpowering the mix, Daya's performance is excellent and distinctive, and it's just an absolute banger overall. But I will mostly agree with SabrinaFan on Sit Still, Look Pretty - that song is fine, and even has some surprisingly strong melodies and production. The lyrics constantly get overanalyzed whenever I hear anyone talk about the song negatively, but I can't lay the blame on Daya herself because she didn't even write them.

Don't get the hype with Bad Bunny. Don't like his voice and none of his songs really do anything for me.

Harry Styles is the only former 1D member who deserves to be famous, and the fact that the other boys are slowly fading to obscurity while Harry's star rises is the cream rising to the top/the natural order asserting itself. We can't all be Justin Timberlakes, henny. Some of us are just Joey Fatones.

Hymn For The Weekend is one of Coldplays worst songs and I donโt find anything interesting about it.

I have a problem with the fact that Elton John uses every opportunity to s**t on and insult Madonna for working with younger artists and then he goes and does it AFTER she did and even with the same artist that she worked with first and somehow it's okay when he did it but it was desperate and attention-seeking when she did it. He is a bitter pussy.

Classic Rock is the most overrated genre of music and is the most boring genre of music with the same songs over and over again.

The music on classic rock stations is generally good, but they can feel burnt-out especially if you've been hearing them for decades. But if we're going to complain about "the same songs over and over again", then shouldn't that apply to almost every mainstream radio format?

Pop,Country & Hip Hop/R&B Radio have always evolved along with the newer acts on each genre and is welcome to different acts getting played on them. That is what always keeps them fresh and popular. Classic Rock is just stale and is just beyond the times with never evolving like other genres have. It is an snooze fest.

I'm a big fan of Elton's original "Tiny Dancer," but I did not like "Hold Me Closer." It sounds like a very generic dance-pop remix that takes all the life out of the original. Elton's vocals sound very off (idk if he did something to manipulate/autotune them?) and Britney doesn't sound great in the one solo bit she gets either. I wanted to like this, but it definitely does not do justice to the original at all.

Her best song is Feel Good and it's not even close. Insomnia?

Almost every song on Future Nostalgia is amazing -- but just as a person, Dua Lipa is one of the most boring artists alive. A gaping black hole of charisma. No personality, no brand, no image, no nothing. She makes great songs but has zero 'star quality.'

It sounds like another version of his successful hit "Cold Heart" and sadly going to have more success just because it is Britney Spears First Comeback single in years.

Super Freaky Girl is one of the worst piece of trash I have ever heard I don't know if I'd go that far, but I do agree with your opinion that it's pretty bad. I will say the sample is used decently, but her voice is incredibly grating and obnoxious IMO, particularly in the chorus.

Might make a separate thread about this soon, but Iโll say it here first: We need more hit songs in โoddโ meters like 5/4 and 7/8.

I always liked MISSIO's music. Even Middle Fingers. I probably shouldn't mention how I feel on most "StompClapHey" music either...

See, I think it's good, but not great. The production is definitely the best part. Also, I'm getting really sick of it.

As It Was is better than Adore You. Adore You uses a recycled beat and doesnโt interest me as much. It bores me.

The lyrics of "Running Up That Hill" fits with how the Placebo's version sounded more than Kate Bush's
