Re: Closer vs Shape of You vs Despacito
The chicks in the "Closer" and "Despacito" videos are smoking, but the songs are crap and average. "Despacito" seems like the perfect song for a Fast movie. "Closer" is honestly no different than the pop songs they were making 15 years ago.
"Shape of You" wins this by a mile.

Re: Closer vs Shape of You vs Despacito
Closer is horrible.
Despacito is a little too generic party song.
Shape of You is by far the best.

Re: Closer vs Shape of You vs Despacito
Closer is not a song. It's an ear grating noise.
I literally had to go watch Despacito on YT because I didn't hear it once up until now. Meh.
Shape of You, while not great and slightly annoying for being overplayed is at least something you can call a song. So SoY it is.

Re: Closer vs Shape of You vs Despacito
Despacito is being played non stop on the radio. I can actually see why Closer was so popular. It certainly has quite a unique, if bad sound to it. Despacito is just, a song that sounds like it will be played at barbecues this summer and quickly forgotten. The Macarena it is not.

Re: Closer vs Shape of You vs Despacito
I'm always surprised when people say they still listen to the radio in 2017.

Re: Closer vs Shape of You vs Despacito
It seems pretty common to me that people listen to radio in the car.

Re: Closer vs Shape of You vs Despacito
I couldn't think of anything worse than driving with the radio on.

Re: Closer vs Shape of You vs Despacito
My favorite part about driving is listening to the radio/ music.

Re: Closer vs Shape of You vs Despacito
Most people listen to the radio in the car still though i guess you can connect up an ipod/iphone or listen to an mp3 mix cd like is still tend to do.
I dont like much of today's music to be honest but like all three of the songs mentioned.

Re: Closer vs Shape of You vs Despacito
Rockstar is worse than any of these songs. I forget what it sounds like when it's not on. I am pretty bewildered it's this mega of a billboard #1
