I like it but I do think it’s his most uninteresting song.

The debut is a dud but his next album with Locked Out Of Heaven and Treasure? They slap!

Mabel's best song?
The moment right before the last chorus with that "bwoooo" rubbery synth dropping in? Jesus fucking Christ. I want a seizure inducing black and white strobelite video immediately.

Loreen's Ride is honestly phenomenal. I'm pretty sure this isn't unpopular but she really fucking did that. I love Heal but Ride is the better album, and I'm still waiting for her to outdo it. "Heart on Hold" just came on shuffle and literally who else could have this range with these songs.
What was the unpopular opinion I started this post with?
Oh, right. The following songs give me massive feels as a 32-year-old in 2025:
(AND I STILL DON'T BELIEVE JANELLE MONAE IS ANYWHERE TO BE FOUND IN THIS SONG.)
and
but if you don't cry when you listen to this then you literally don't understand how badly we fucked up between 2017 and now.

I don't believe anyone who says they don't like Closer by The Chainsmokers. Yes it's basic, but an absolute megabop that takes me right back to the summer of 2016. Makes my Spotify Wrapped every single year ddd

You get it sis.
How is... 3:03 PM treating you.
It's honestly terrifying and weirdly reassuring that you have seen the sun rise already. Will you tell me if it doesn't?
How many glasses of wine have you had hen x
I'm good, just waiting around for Beyoncé, Lady Gaga, Jade,
I can’t stand it. I’m sorry. I think it’s horrible. But I do feel that way about Party Rock Anthem. I absolutely love it! It reminds me of my first year in college which was very easy and fun.

Closer has a pretty strong melody but I can't think of another single from that era where the drop sounds as jarringly cheap.

"Goodbye Means Hello" continues to be the litmus test for drunkenness. I'm bopping.
And Coming up for Air is my favorite track from Only Human. You... you had to be there, idk. You ever stood on a balcony in summer at 3am and watched a car suspiciously pull into a house in the distance, then drive away, then come back, then drive away, then come back with 2 other vehicles? With booze? Oof forget about it.
