That Thunder song is the biggest piece of fuckin shit to hit the airwaves ever.

That song in particular just shouldn’t exist, let alone become a hit. It has over 1 billion streams on Spotify, while there are other songs by lesser known bands, which deserve that number but have nothing.

That song didn't become unbearable because it was overplayed. It started out unbearable for being awful. I still can't fathom why it gets so much radio air time.

At a certain point, you have to accept that there a lot of garbage people who like a lot of garbage and keep perpetuating it. People who actually like, love or obsess over cheesy pop or formulaic country are basically admitting that they have un-evolved brains that soak up propaganda

I thought their first album was decent enough for radio pop/rock. Then I heard that song and now I can't hear any of their stuff without it playing in my head and making me want to barf. Very disappointing.
