ApplauseftAdele 4,679 Posted August 29, 2016 Share Posted August 29, 2016 I really don't understand the hate. Most number 1s do get backlash but this I just don't get... 1) it's the type of song with a chorus that you and your friends would sing with music blasting or at a party when everyone is wasted, kinda like the "youuuu" in This is what you came for. It is easy to remmeber and it is very catchy and not hard to sing, which makes it a good song and successful. It's not about the "artistry" of the song but the memories that you have listening to it, which is what makes songs like "We Found Love" or "Summer" such hits 2) really? The guy can't sing? He's a ****ing DJ , if Calvin Harris performed summer and sang live it would obviously sound bad 3) it's generic... It's pop music were you expecting the Chainsmokers to release Bad Romance 2.0? also is there a "non-generic" song that deserves the #1 more right now ? Maybe it should be Make Me, the most iconic and innovative song of the century? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

venusfly 17,879 Posted August 29, 2016 Share Posted August 29, 2016 Because monsters come after anyone who isn't Gaga or a select few artists that the fanbase collectively approve of. It's really dumb. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LaMaisonGaga 23,884 Posted August 29, 2016 Share Posted August 29, 2016 You right now: To me it comes across like you can't deal with other people's opinion. Don't like how everyone else dislikes the song? Good. Bop on your own along to it. P.S. wasn't even aware of that song's existence until now. lamaisongaga.com Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morphine Prince 96,178 Posted August 29, 2016 Share Posted August 29, 2016 Well, their opinion is irrelevant. The song is #1 on iTunes, Spotify (last time I checked), and the lyric video has over 100M views in a month. The song is a smash and they will seethe when it blocks Perfect Illusion from getting that #1. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
aquariumlust 115 Posted August 29, 2016 Share Posted August 29, 2016 I personally don't like the song, but that's my sole opinion. There are a lot of horrible and generic songs that I love though so it's all about taste. Obviously a lot of people love the song and are connecting to it and pop music is allowed to be frivolous and fun. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone has decided to hate Halsey for no actual reason and they are almost militant in their desire to bring her down. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
