I can only assume that 906,444,360 different people listened to "abcdefu" exactly once. That is the worst song to crack the top 40 in years.

Weird take. I'd never heard the song, and I've never heard of the artist, but after listening to it, it sounds standard to the point of being derivative. Weird to single it out for song of the year, also, but I don't get how it could be "worst" when it sounds exactly like 100 other top 40 songs, and there are so many totally grating, unpleasant songs (including some of the other nominations, probably).

Nah it’s catchy, just not for your generation/demographic.

There’s a lot of data out there that proves it’s mostly kids who sway the Music industry’s best interest. It’s really interesting and fkn scary.

Everyone was using the song in videos when it first came out. People just enjoy changing their tune.

As a 20 year old I disagree with this. Any publicity is good publicity anyway

I only heard remix of it, and it is pretty catchy

Add billions of additional listens through tictoc. I have never heard the entire song, but I've heard that catchy damn chorus at least 1000 times.
