TSUNAMI 20,376 Posted April 17, 2016 Share Posted April 17, 2016 During last year British Museum of Science and Idustry decided to explore which song is most recognisable to date. The research was huge (almost 12000 people participated) and it is over. So, now we have top 5 and may I say I'm proud our girl is there. 1. Spice Girls - Wannabe - 2.29 sec *(0:45) 2. Lou Bega - Mambo No. 5 - 2.48 sec (0:50) 3. Survivor - Eye of the Tiger - 2.62 sec (2:04) 4. Lady Gaga - Just Dance - 2.66 sec (1:39) 5. ABBA - SOS - 2.73 sec (2:25) *- this means that it only took 2.29 sec for song to be recognised. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RadioIsOurs 13,828 Posted April 17, 2016 Share Posted April 17, 2016 This list is kinda questionable IMO. Eye of The Tiger? I thought only that riff would be more recognisable, which is way past 2 seconds. And SOS? What? Really? Out all the ABBA songs? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greg 6,330 Posted April 17, 2016 Share Posted April 17, 2016 The Spice Girls being at the top of the list makes complete sense to me. I can see why Gaga is in the top 5 too, but the other three seem a bit questionable. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

iCpro 14,846 Posted April 18, 2016 Share Posted April 18, 2016 Manchester's Museum of Science and Industry (MOSI) published the results of a year-long study into what makes a song particularly memorable. They found That Just Dance is the 4th catchiest song of all time, with Wannabe by the Spice Girls taking the top spot. Poker Face also made the list at number 11, making Gaga one of only three artists to get two songs on the list, the others being Michael Jackson and Elvis Presley. Since Gaga had a higher overall placing than the other two, she is technically the catchiest artist of all time. Interestingly Just Dance and Poker Face are the only songs on the list from the 21st century. Full list: Spoiler 1. Spice Girls - Wannabe - 2.29 s (0:45) 2. Lou Bega - Mambo No. 5 - 2.48 s (0:50) 3. Survivor - Eye of the Tiger - 2.62 s (2:04) 4. Lady Gaga - Just Dance - 2.66 s (1:39) 5. ABBA - SOS - 2.73 s (2:25) 6. Roy Orbison - Pretty Woman - 2.73 s (1:07) 7. Michael Jackson - Beat It - 2.80 s (0:38) 8. Whitney Houston - I Will Always Love You - 2.83 s (3:09) 9. The Human League - Don't You Want Me - 2.83 s (3:05) 10. Aerosmith - I Don't Want to Miss a Thing - 2.84 s (2:22) 11. Lady Gaga - Poker Face - 2.88 s (0:57) 12. Hanson - Mmmmbop - 2.89 s (1:44) 13. Elvis Presley - It's Now Or Never - 2.91 s (2:14) 14. Bachman-Turner Overdrive - You Ain't Seen Nothin' Yet - 2.94 s (1:48) 15. Michael Jackson - Billie Jean - 2.97 s (1:25) 16. Culture Club - Karma Chameleon - 2.99 s (0:41) 17. Britney Spears - Baby One More Time - 2.99 s (0:33) 18. Elvis Presley - Devil in Disguise - 3.01 s (1:21) 19. Boney M. - Rivers of Babylon - 3.03 s (0:23) 20.
