Billboard 2025 Year-End Music List Review Thing That I Keep Doing To Myself

Somehow music is still popular enough to have lists made of it. They’re not the lists I’d make though. Whatever the hell I was even up to this year, there’s the radio for when I’m at work for most of it, so I can work on whatever things I’ve been assigned that week without losing my mind as quickly, and if the radio just has junk on, I switch on my own music. This is why I get CDs to make MP3s because I don’t want to deal with streaming everything. Out of all the songs, somehow these counted as the top for this year because the years start and end in October and we don’t see how they went until December. If you want the source list, here’s one full of Billboard’s ads and here’s one full of Wikipedia’s fundraiser popups.

  1. Die With A Smile by The Joker
    It turns out this song isn’t about Joker Venom and how people die laughing from it, or whatever happens depending on how it works in the particular iteration. Instead it’s Lady Gaga doing a duet song with Bruno Mars, and it sounds like a Bruno Mars throwback style song because I swear most of the time Lady Gaga ends up in a collab it usually sounds more like the other person’s song and she’s just on it. One of the exceptions to that would be Telephone, because on that song she has to keep up with Beyoncé so she gave it her all and it really sounds like a combination Beyoncé and Gaga song. Even that Just Dance song sounded a lot like any other dance kinda anthem that showed up in pop music around that time. Anyway this song’s fine. I don’t know that I’d put it all the way at the top myself, I probably wouldn’t actually, but it’s fine. They both can sing.
  2. Let’s Luther Vandross And Get It On by Kendrick Lamar and SZA
    This opens with a Luther Vandross sample, of course. Kendrick Lamar had a bunch of hits from his album about ripping on Drake and other things, and this is one of the other things, a duet that includes things like being relatively monotone and getting stuck going “fa fa fa fa fa fa fa” like he forgot the rest of a Christmas carol. Long story short from all I’ve heard from this album, which given what ended up on the radio is a decent chunk of it, this is one of my least favorites from it. I’m just not into this one. Again, an okay song but not one I’d go listen to.
  3. A Bar Song (Again) by Shaboozey (Again)
    This is almost in the exact same spot as it was in the last year-end, just one spot lower. Where was the rest of the big pop music this year?
  4. Lose Control Teddy Swimming And You Might Teddy Drown
    Oh look, it’s the previous year-end’s number one top pop song thing list chart thing. Again, where was the big music? Actually I have a couple answers. It was in a Netflix movie and on every other chart but the pop charts. And Billboard’s messed up fiscal year measurement system that starts and ends in October screws up the positions a bunch. The list would be notably different if it used either songs that only were released in the exact year or were popular from the start of January to the end of December. And probably also other reasons.
  5. Birds Of A Billie
    Yeah, another holdover from the last chart, this time higher. My thoughts haven’t really changed on this either.
  6. Repeating Things
    Another repeat. Again also higher. Almost as high as that one note gets, but not quite to the pitch of that other song that’s later on here.
  7. Ordinary Song by Ordinary Guy
    The third non-repeat song on this list and it’s this. It’s so… generic. It’s a love song, I think? He has to turn into a crowd to attempt to have any impact. This song doing well on any charts is pretty much an echo of what’s happening with Call of Duty games, where they keep turning out more generic each year and yet they still sell lots of copies because the people just love slop, “AI” or not. Essentially since the Modern Warfare reboot happened, I have just almost completely tuned out unless something notable comes out of it, like apparently they now just have raid bosses in campaign maps pasted from their mandatory battle royale mode designed to sell unfitting skins, or they stop making it so people have to download 20 other games that they don’t even play through a recursively nested launcher to download the one they were trying to play, all of which now take up half a storage drive regardless of actual size.
  8. Morgan Wallen Had Some Help From Post Malone
    He sure did. And it clearly wasn’t enough, yet this song still stuck around around the top of the year-end but still went down a few spots.
  9. Bruno Mars with Rosé? How apt.
    The K-pop starts here. The concept of this song is based on some kind of Korean drinking game called “apartment” at least when translated. However to the untrained English-trained ear, the repeating word sounds a bit more like “apple tap my tit”. I mean you can tap to pay with Apple Pay on the iPhone but I don’t think you should be doing that to the ladies in the strip club. Or using credit cards, I don’t think there’s a way to tap or swipe those especially. Anyway this song isn’t about cashless strippers, it’s about a drinking game and also wanting to go meet up with yo man and kiss his real face. Uh huh. It’s catchy. In fact it’s too catchy and it got overplayed but thankfully that’s getting toned down a little, because I otherwise find if fun enough.
  10. Chappell Freely Roans The Pink Pony Club
    Here’s a song from years back that ended up big somewhere on the charts when it was added to a breakout album. I think the premise is something along the lines of “screw what your parents and everyone else thinks, go do the thing you want”. At this point I’m pretty sure it’s not about going to an actual club decorated in light red and populated exclusively by miniature horse type creatures, or a bludgeoning weapon used to attack Pinkie Pie.
  11. Love Somebody but not Morgan Wallen
    This song might work better if it wasn’t attempting to be country on top of some kinda pop. And if it was someone else. I was wondering if I could just copy paste an old review but the only other “Love Somebody” I reviewed was back in 2013 from Maroon 5, so here’s that: “It’s Adam Levine talking about how he wants to love someone. Not necessarily sex their brains out though, so that’s good at least. But that might end up happening anyway.”
  12. Depresso by Sabrina the Mid-20s Carpenter
    Looking at me, looking at you, looking at my expresso. Taking a shit, taking a piss, calling that my depresso. I’m working late, because my job sucks. My sense of humor, it’s all just fart jokes.
  13. It’s me. Hi. I’m the problem, it’s Morgan Wallen.
    Yeah, it’s country. I don’t say this often but Taylor Swift did this one better. Even though it’s not the same song.
  14. That’s So Gracie Abrams
    OoooooOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOoooOOOoooOooooOoooOOooOOooOOoooOoooOOooOOooOOoooOOooOOooooooooOOooOOOo. That’s no ghost, it’s Old Man Jenkins. I mean whoever this is. I’m not a fan.
  15. TV Off, Kendrick On
    The song that announced he would walk into New Orleans with the etiquette of LA yelling MUSTAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARD. And he did. By doing this exact song at the Super Bowl. I turned my TV on to see the halftime show. That’s a dumb joke but it’s true. I don’t really watch Super Bowls or their commercials but I do see if I catch halftime and also see if it matches the predictions I run in old football games at the end. Anyway this song is cool.
  16. Timeless but only on The Weekend with Playboi Carti
    After the first Playboi line, the Weeknd makes a noise that sounds like a cat meowing underwater with their nose just above the surface. Something like mmmBLUB. I know this because I’ve seen a video of that exact thing long ago. Also I’ve seen a dog do something similar in another video. That’s all I have to say about this song.
  17. Not Like Us Or Them Or Anybody by Kendrick Lamar
    This song was also brought to the Super Bowl. Somehow Drake survived a stadium of people singing along to the A MINOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOR line.
  18. Just in case you didn’t see enough Morgan Wallen on this list, here’s another.
    Meh country but with a trap beat. Why is this.
  19. Taste the Carpet, Taste the Rainbow
    The year end list can’t get the taste of this song out of its proverbial mouth. I don’t feel strongly toward or against this song at all. The video is still weird. Also I realized it’s kinda based on this one movie called Death Becomes Her.
  20. Squablup by Kendramar
    I don’t know what a “squabble up” is but this song is a banger. The video is a ballroom but with a bunch of references to West Coast hip-hop, especially Compton. There’s just a kid up there on the highway sign, what are you doing up there.
  21. 30 for 30 for 30 for 30 for 30 for 30 for 30 for 30 by SZA and Kendrick Lamar
    Chat, is this song real? If it’s fuck me then go fuck yourself too. I don’t know. This is more of a SZA song but of course there’s plenty of references to the War On Drake in here too. It’s fine I guess, but like “Luther” it’s still not among my top picks for songs with Kendrick.
  22. Dogmutt by Leonthomas
    So I know about this one character called Makima from this manga/anime called Chainsaw Man. I haven’t seen it myself but long story short she keeps a tight leash on her dogs. If asked to bark like a dog, you can say, “Little dog? Arf arf. Or big dog? Woof woof.” Just like in the weird microphone-controlled PS2 game Lifeline. Or you can claim to be a mutt like this song. I don’t have much to say here, just that tangent.
  23. Good News, it’s Shaboozey.
    Man what a hell of a year it’s been. Captain it’s only January. I read the news today oh boy. Now I know how many potholes can fill a concert hall. I smoked a mega weed and I fell into my own ass. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA. This song’s okay I guess but I don’t really listen to it.
  24. Nokia Ringtone Dance Party by Disney’s Extreme Skate Adventure
    Somehow, Drake returned. And somehow, this is one of the better Drake songs I’ve heard, period. But it’s still a Drake song so it’s still okay at best. I’m not a fan of Drake really as historically mentioned before the whole War On Drake. And then in terms of phone-based rap type songs from this year, “Ring Ring Ring” from Tyler, the Creator surpasses this hand over ringtone. So I’m not sure where I’d put this song now.
  25. Golden by Huntrix by K-Pop Demon Hunters by Netflix
    So this movie came out. I haven’t seen it. All I know is there’s the good girl band and the evil boy band and they do fights or something and also do funny expressions. I only know this song because it gets so overplayed. It’s fine but I don’t have any particular attachment to this song. Maybe if I saw the movie I’d think differently but not right now. This seems to be the big song from it though so it must play at some pivotal “Let It Go” kinda moment like when that charted.
  26. Some Kinda Flower by Some Kinda Eyelash
    This song’s back. I still don’t really care much here.
  27. Morgan Wallen Is Not What I Want, Also Tate McRae Is There
    This is the worst Lil Nas X cover I’ve heard yet. I don’t know how they can screw up a song so much that it’s not even the song they covered anymore. Even if it’s not a cover in the end I still don’t care for this one bit.
  28. Lola Young Gets Messy
    Oh that’s what this song is. He ate a whole damn log? Lawn? Is he the Lawnmower Man from the short story and not the weird CGI movie thing that happened? No, wait, the real version says “you hate the fucking lot”. Yeah, parking can be a pain sometimes. I don’t get it. At least there is a mess in the video so that lives up to the name. It’s an okay song I guess.
  29. Myles Smithgazing
    Another repeat. It’s fine.
  30. That’s So Ravyn Lenae Me Not
    This got a lot of airplay and still does sometimes. It’s a neat song in a classic kinda R&B funk type style I think if I have some vague idea about genres.
  31. Good Luck, Chappell Roan
    You’re gonna need it at that Pink Pony Club, I hear it’s one of those bludgeons they use to attack pink ponies.
  32. No One Noticed The Marias Inquisition
    This one also comes in Extended English and Extended Spanish versions. What if they had more alliteration on the Spanish one so it’d be like… Stretched Spanish. But maybe that implies vaporwave. Which this is certainly a vibe at least. Where’s this song been if it’s this high up on the list but I don’t recall hearing this on the radio? Then again sometimes my radio channels are a bit behind on things. For this song from about two years ago now at this point. I say they’re missing out.
  33. Big X Plugs All The Way To Bailey Zimmerman
    One of the first results I saw for BigXThaPlug was “type beat” after it. I guess like one of those chess-type beats but instead of dancing rats there’s… Tony Montana and some kinda disco trap? I don’t know. Anyway the guy here who is the biggest and the largest, not to be confused with the guy who can’t decide between saying “hell” and “heli” apparently, is on this song that also has country in it. Honestly I prefer the rap part over the country part that was pasted in. If he really is the biggest and the largest then we don’t need to fill any more space with anything else.
  34. Too Much Hozier
    I was tired of this song before and go figure I’m still tired of it somehow, even if it’s played less now it still feels overplayed. I guess I’m just not a fan of this one.
  35. The Worst Way To Riley Green
    It’s country, but horny I guess, to whatever extent they can still play the song on country radio. Eighteen almost-naked cowboys just waiting to have heterosexual intimate relations with women.
  36. Well hello, Sailor Song!
    Tell you what’s your flavor? Is it salty? I’m not here to talk about seamen though. This is some kinda indie type song and it’s all right.
  37. Sorry Benson Boone, I’m Here For Some Other Song
    There’s a part in the middle where it becomes that cat synthesizer and there’s this repeated BENNY DON’T DO IT. NO BENNY DON’T. DON’T SHOOT THAT COURIER IN THE FACE WITH THAT REALLY WEAK GUN. THEY’RE GONNA RISE FROM THE DEAD BECAUSE SOME ROBOT DUG THEM UP AND THEN THEY’LL FIND YOUR ROBOT AND TAKE OVER NEVADA. The song is fine and New Vegas is a neat game.
  38. Sabrina The Mid-20s Carpenter Builds A Cage For The Manchild
    I think the term “manchild” is used here because there are other related words to “stupid” and “slow” that aren’t so friendly to say on the radio or in general for now. But soon that’ll all change back and we’ll be saying things like shit piss fuck cunt cocksucker motherfucker tits freely on children’s shows on YouTube, as if they aren’t already, and yet “ass” is banned because people keep saying “ahh” instead because phones are stupid. Here’s a tip, when you need to say something is a “(x) ahh (y)”, instead substitute the phrase “(x) FUCKING (y)”.
  39. Somebody That I Used To Know by Gotye and Kimbra
    Wait a minute, this isn’t Gotye or Kimbra, this is Doechii singing over Doechii singing over Doechii several times over the song. But yeah the song is now old enough to be sampled wholesale or just straight up replace all the vocals with someone else. Which means we can do a throwback cover now. Time to do ultra death metal Gotye songs. What were the other Gotye songs?
  40. I Got Better, But Did Morgan Wallen?
    At least this one sounds more like country than attempted trap rap pop overlaid on country. I’m still not much of a country boy though, at least in terms of being fan of what’s out now.
  41. Wake Up, Sticky by Tyler, The Creator and Glo, The Rilla and Sexyy, The Red and Lil, The Wayne
    It’s getting stickyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy. Need a bucket and a mop for that stickyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy. No seeds no stems no sticks, just that real stickyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy. So now we have this legend I’ve been hearing about for some time finally ending up on the year-end charts here, and on top of that I also managed to find a local hip-hop station somewhat recently after scanning through what I can pick up that plays this and some other hot tracks, including what’s showing up from the album after this one. So I expect to see those songs on next year’s list. Anyway this one’s a hot track as mentioned before, with the verses overlaid on a buildup of marching band drumline music.
  42. Undressed on Somblr Dot Com
    Seriously if this artist is going to be named and branded after a particular type of mood kinda music, it’s going to be a big shock to whatever fanbase if the songs start being all happy and upbeat. Also go figure there’s apparently inspiration drawn from sappy book movies like from Nicholas Sparks and someone else. What if this artist drew inspiration from Nicolas Cage movies instead? Anyway this song’s fine enough, and I hear it as not wanting to get undressed for a nude person, also there’s a line that sounds like it was ripped from that holes in the sweater song where there’s two birds with one mouth in one house with two mouse or however that goes.
  43. I NEVER LIE. NEVER! YOU HEAR THAT ZACH TOP? NEVER!
    Well, this sounds like country. Like country country. The “good” kinda country even if I’m not really into this as much as other songs. Just like yo mama used to make sittin’ on that there porch eatin’ whiskey and whackin’ tabacky and monster truckin’ and suckin’ and fuckin’ that there tractor there who be my right done cousin and a half I tells ya like giddyup motherfucka yippie ki-yay time to climb this building with my feet. You know I remember seeing a trailer for this movie that seemed like Die Hard with a Prosthetic Limb but I forgot the name of it. Apparently it was just called Skyscraper and the Rock was in it. At least that’s one less foot to bleed from all the glass I guess, but still a full pair to kick the bad guys’ asses.
  44. Somblr Goes Back To Friends Because They Keep Showing Reruns Of That Show
    Already another song from the sad social media blog-sounding singer. If you thought the previous song was a bit melodramatic, get a load of this one. It’s a bit much, to put it lightly, but probably just the right amount for teens and “tweens” having a breakup after an hour of dating. And I keep wanting to change the line “when we just shared a bed” to something more like “when we shared Minecraft beds” or “when you just shit the bed” or “when you just gave me head” or “when you just ate my ass” and so on. Also the intro reminded me of a song called “Hang Me Up To Dry” by Cold War Kids, once I actually remembered the name of it. But it’s not quite that similar.
  45. Bush Brand Bed Chemicals by Sabrina the Mid-20s Carpenter
    Apparently Genius Dot Com thinks this song title is sexually provocative. Because when my mind goes to a very late 1990s rock song about a relationship falling apart I think HELL YEAH LET’S GET HORNY. LET’S MARVIN GAYE AND GET HELLA GAY. E. Anyway, who is that allegedly cute guy with the colossal blue eyes like those of a squid and the big bad “mm”? Also according to Genius Dot Com, “mm” is short for PENIS. I thought it was short for M&Ms. Or Eminem. Guess who’s back? Not me. Not for this song.
  46. Tate McRae’s Sports Car Rally 2000
    Apparently in this car, people can “uh uh” in it. According once again to Genius Dot Com, that means “engaging in sexual activites”, a.k.a. “have sex”. Have sex. Poop my pants and my tent. That’s not even the song being edited for radio, it’s just like that. I wonder if we can possibly refer to sex in even more vague terms, like how it’s that thing where a guy puts his thingy in a girl’s thingy and then stuff happens. Maybe too specific, just call it “that thing that sometimes happens”. Anyway if a girl crawled into my car I’d be like “who are you and why are you imitating The Ring” and then she was like “let’s uh uh in it” and I’d be like “what’s uh uh, is that bad, it sounds bad, I’m going to drive away now, please leave I did not invite you”. Then I’d go home and watch a funny guy spin in a chair and vomit for 12 hours. I haven’t seen the movie, but I have seen Scary Movie 3. Comedy Central played it a lot.
  47. The Mystical Magical World Of Benson Boone And The Flatulent Submarine Band Quartet Presents A Whimsical Earful Of Quite Fine Riparian Entertainments
    Pisstical splashicle, going to the Testicle Festival. You get any higher pitch with that and you’ll end up Alvin of the Chipmunks. This almost sounds like one of those songs someone would make up for a commercial about a little lad who loves berries and cream. And despite my mockery of the whole thing it’s… okay? Just cheesy as heck though. Which works to its benefit. Better to piss in the sink than sink in the piss or something.
  48. What do we really know about GloRilla and Sexyy Red?
    Anyway, here’s rap. They have hair, face, ass, and titties. Ass ass titties titties ass and titties. Big booty bitches and so forth.
  49. Indigo Magico by Sam the Barber and Avery the Anna
    Oh look, more country. And it’s sappy. Great.
  50. Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please
    No.
  51. DTMF b BB
    I’m just going to randomly guess that stands for “Dartmouth”, which is a fancy ancient college of some kind. In this track the implication must be that this Bad Bunny individual is highly educated and will use such knowledge to kick and/or educate your ass. Fittingly the apparent video for this is a Powerpoint slideshow going over the history of something about Reggaeton. I’m not the most fluent in Spanish but I can kinda get a vague idea of the lesson here.
  52. Blue Strips, Bare Tits, Hairy Pits, Poop Shits by Jessie Murph
    Boing mad boing mad boing madachoo, ah, hadage backachoo, ah, hadage backachoo. For a song about throwing money around, which apparently these “blue strips” refer to the counterfeiting countermeasures added in to higher value US dollar bills, it sure sounds sad. Also I thought “blue strips” initially referred to pregnancy tests for some reason. Because I was thinking like those ones that have the stripe that show up, and then it turns out they use that same technology for those COVID tests. Fortunately I haven’t gotten pregnant with either one, and I hope to continue avoiding that as much as possible, even though for one of those things to happen I’d have to end up falling into one of those Omegaverse portals where people are wolves except not and somehow some old hierarchy definition determines who’s knocking up who. I don’t get it either. I think it originated from Superwholock or something. Who would win in a fight, that or Bee Shrek Test in the House?
  53. Peekaboo! It’s Kendrick Lamar and… Az… Ass Chicken? Ass Cheeks???
    I thought he was saying “pickable” at first, given that the first line of the first verse follows that with putting boogers in a chain. Somehow there’s wordplay happening with lyrics that aren’t even the right ones. That’s how fire Kendrick is getting here. Turning lines like “hey hey hey hey hey hey hey” and “bing bop boom boom boom bop bam” into bars.
  54. SUPER IDOL by the totally-not-demons Saja Boys
    That’s the second song from that movie about K-Pop Demons and their Hunters on this list. And there’s still more to come. This one though I haven’t heard before now. I guess this is when the bad guys get their superpowers out and punch a building over and also rap about it. Then they turn the fans into zombies or something and the Worcestershire sauce hotline says to not just start chainsawing zombies left and right.
  55. The High Road with such stops as Koe Wetzel’s Pretzels and Jessie Murph’s Surf and Turf
    One takes the high road, the other takes the low, and then fill the crevasse with mighty juice. Apparently this is also from last year.
  56. Abracadabragoobablooblahblah by Lady Gagaga Gloobydoobyda
    Lady Gaga returns with more songs. Mainly the one not about Joker Venom and this one. There’s another about doing the dead dance but that’s not on here. This is classic modern Gaga right here, bombastic production and nonsense-sounding lyrics that somehow have deep meanings. The video likewise, all that choreography and imagery of some type. I’m not gonna question how art stuff can get.
  57. Who is Jimin?
    A K-Pop singer apparently. This is a K-Pop song as well. I can’t think of anything else aside from not being able to think of a joke involving Jiminy Cricket.
  58. Burning Blue by Mariah “Not Carey” The Scientist
    Is this how they thawed out the other Mariah this year? Or how they tried to keep her frozen because it’s cold fire or something? Anyway some kinda oil drum type beat with some kinda sex music I guess.
  59. SHE RETURNS
    Once every year, Mariah escapes the ice prison and spreads Christmas joy and ultra high notes and metal pipes every time the pitch changes.
  60. Daisies for Joostin Boostin?
    The first result for “daisies” is a Hazbin Hotel song, I’m guessing one more inspired by than actually from. I haven’t seen that show or the other show that came out while that show hadn’t come out yet. I just know a TV head guy is in there. They’re also in Skibidi Toilet though. What even is the lore of that now? One time at a store I saw the Gen Zalpha equivalent of army men, a container full of single-color plastic Skibidis and Cameramen and such. There’s also a Katy Perry song and one called Daisy by Ashnikko. All right, time for WAR OF THE DAISIES.
    • First, the Hazbin thing. Something I’ve noted about songs from or adjacent to this is that a lot of it is electro-swing, which is one of my favorite genres, so that’s already points from me. It’s a short and sweet song about death, also a common theme. I may have been shown this song before by someone who’s more into the show and such.
    • Next, the one that’s actually on the year-end list. Unsurprisingly somewhat generic. I’ve heard this on the radio and didn’t know who it was. Basic guitar kinda backing and then just bang on the drums a minute, not all day.
    • Third, Katy Perry. I’ve reviewed two Katy Perry albums before for some reason. This one’s from Smile, one I haven’t reviewed and not to be confused with the eternally languishing album called Smile that would be from the Beach Boys if it released as intended. It’s a Katy Perry song. Inspirational or something I guess.
    • Finally, that last one. I’ve heard this somewhere before. I think it was a dance routine. It’s some kinda rap and singing about… I don’t know. The video has a lot of costumes though. And it’s an interestingly constructed song.
    So who comes out on top? I don’t know, you decide. Nah it’s obviously electro-swing then the weird costume rap then I stop caring. And you thought I was getting sidetracked before when a song showed up I couldn’t think of anything much about.
  61. Soda Pop by Soda Boys by Netflix
    The EVIL K-Pop guys are back in this THIRD song from that movie on here. Don’t worry, there’s even more of these. Anyway this is the song from the brief clip I’ve seen of this movie where they throw hearts at people. Because of DEMON POWERS. But yeah, it’s K-Pop. But demons. And there’s hunters. X Hunters.
  62. Like Tyler, The Creator and Lola, The Young
    It starts with a description with all these traits listed out, which gets cut off at “big di--” and then there’s the piano and singing and then it goes places. Also I think I hear dogs. I don’t think I heard this one before. I don’t know if it ever got airplay where I am.
  63. Chris Brown’s Residue
    Look who’s back, it’s this guy. He does things still. Like collect royalties for old songs still being played on the radio and maybe sometimes used in things, and I guess also this song too. Those are called residuals. This song might be about that, or treating girls who moved on from him as needing to pay him favors when they go hang out with other guys? Like child support but not? I don’t know or really care, this is a very not-very-interesting song to me.
  64. Morgan Wallen’s song Smile, not to be confused with Katy Perry’s album Smile or The Beach Boys’ unreleased album Smile or Lily Allen’s song Smile or the first song on this list
    It’s another one of these. Yeah I don’t know. If you thought Netflix had a lot of songs on here, this guy has more.
  65. Last Christmas I Gave You My Fart The Very Next Day You Blew Me Away Like WHAM!
    For all I know I did get through the Whamageddon challenge this time around due to not working retail and also just generally not hanging around Christmas music much this season, but I also don’t care.
  66. Am I OK, or am I just a (Megan) Moron(ey)?
    It’s a fine country song. I was going to make a joke about how this artist could tour with Maroon 5 and it could be the Moroney 5 Tour or something but not sure where I was going with that.
  67. HEADBANGING INTO THE CHRISTMAS TREE
    HELL YEAH THIS IS LIT BECAUSE SOMEONE ACCIDENTALLY LIT THE TREE ON FIRE OH NO
  68. How It’s Pronounced by Huntrix Are For Demons
    Yet another one of these movie songs. I guess this is when they have a rap battle or something. Again I still haven’t seen the movie. Just occasional clips like when they snort a whole sushi roll or something.
  69. It Never Happen To Me by Russell Dickerdick
    Kinda dorky country song. Mentions the “Girls Just Wanna Have Fun” song including how it’s sung in that song. What if this was just a straight up cover of that song. Figure out how to replicate the weird synth xylophone solo with an acoustic guitar while not being Tom Morello. And then there’s a version with the Brothers Jonas.
  70. Unforgettable Dance by Conejo Malo
    So this one’s some straight up salsa music. Put that on your chip and smoke it. Then tear up the dance floor. Nice traditional track here.
  71. If It Weren’t For The Wind, They’d Smell The Broken Wind Instead
    More country. This one’s fine though.
  72. Morgan Wallen And Post Malone Are Definitely Coming Back
    Several times on this list even, more so the former. As much as I don’t really care for this or the others.
  73. Don’t Cry For The Weekend, Live For It
    Why is the first result for “cry for me” a song by the VTuber Ironmouse? You know what I’m actually not surprised. I’ll just say I don’t get both of these songs.
  74. Teddy Swims Has Some Bad Dreams
    A sweet dream or a beautiful nightmare? This one’s okay. Not quite a Beyoncé song though.
  75. The Nile is a river in Africa which flows northward, with its initial source in Rwanda and ending in Egypt, flowing into the Mediterranean Sea.
    This is some sort of condensed life history about Doechii with a hyperventilating solo at the end. Anxiety seems to be the running theme here.
  76. BMF B SZA
    Apparently at some point SZA got gleebified as some kinda bug alien, but not with any kinda voice modulator to imply that, just the album cover. This is a weird version of “The Girl From Ipanema” where instead it’s some guy from South Detroit that causes SZA’s London Bridge to keep going down. Oh shit. Oh fuck. Oh gosh darn diddly-dingle-dongle.
  77. EOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
    I don’t know what “EOO” stands for, or maybe something was just really gross right then and that’s the sound someone makes, like instead of “EWWWWW” it’s “EOOOOOOOOOOO”. Or there’s this one thing I found about a robot voice cat on rainbows. Anyway if you’re ready for another history slideshow while this song keeps changing there it is, complete with the official seal of What If Puerto Rico Was Run By Casually-Dressed Frog People Instead Of Whatever The Hell USA Is Doing To It.
  78. I’m Probably Not Gonna Love This Song by Cody Johnson and Carrie Underwood
    I was right. The sappiest country song yet on this list, maybe, but I’m not gonna bother with rankings. Just profuse vomiting.
  79. I’m Still Not Okay by Stale Danish
    And I still don’t know what else to put here. I’ll just mention one time recently I saw a Joker Car in my general area, but it wasn’t super Jokerized, I just recognized the decals.
  80. Okay, Backup Plan: Bailey Zimmerman and Luke Combs, go make some kinda song.
    Of course it was a country song. It sounds like country at least instead of trap rap pop farts. Pop Farts, part of a terrible breakfast that consists of just those with a side of Caca-Cola.
  81. JINGLE BELL FUCKING DEATH METAL
    JINGLE BELL JINGLE BELL JINGLE BELL FUCK. JINGLE BELL SHIT SUCK MY JINGLE BELL COCK.
  82. Tate McRae gets stuck in one of those revolving doors
    It’s a song. I don’t know what to make of this one.
  83. What Yet Another Song From A Netflix Movie Sounds Like
    Yeah. There are still two more of these on this list. There are SEVEN. SEVEN. SEVEN SEVEN SEVEN SEVEN SEVEN! Anyway this is probably during some pre-climax moment where they’re like, “we can’t beat this, oh wait, yes we can, with the power of ROCK or K-POP or SOME GENRE”.
  84. Brandon Lake and Jelly Roll VS Hallelujah
    Some kinda country rock song about something. I don’t know, didn’t really hold my attention. There are 100 songs here.
  85. Somebody Loves Either PARTYNEXTDOOR, Drake, or Cash Cobain
    More autotune singing. Also Drake is there. But where’s Cash Cobain? If I try to find that one I found Part 2 which why does this need 2 parts? And it’s different. What is this song. No, really, what is it? Is this all one song that’s multiple songs? Like how “Independent Women” has two parts and the second is circus music? Either way I prefer the song about the independent circus women out of all of these.
  86. I TOLD YOU I NEVER LIE YOU LIAR!
    Yeah, another song. It’s fine I guess. Let’s check the comments. Who’s listening in 2027. I’m 800 and I shit on my tractor. My entire family died of ligma. PRAISE THE GODJESUS. Let’s not check the comments.
  87. Tu Boda (Translators Note: “tu boda” means “your wedding”) by Oscar Maydon Wiener and Fuerza Regida
    Seriously that name is so close to Oscar Meyer I just couldn’t not do that. But this song seems nice, and we’ve seen at least the latter named artist on these lists before. And apparently Spanish-speaking commenters are also quick to point out “Minecraft references” in the video with a flaming rectangular frame showing up.
  88. After All The Bars Are Closed, Thomas Rhett Drinks At Home
    Closing time, but not Semisonic. And of course it’s another country song they threw the arbitrary “fellow kids Casio drum preset” over. Whatever man.
  89. Nuevayol, now available in Oxxo everywhere
    Apparently this is short for “New York” but in Spanish, kinda like if someone instead wrote Nyork I guess. Apparently it’s about not wanting Puerto Rico being gentrified, and then the video has Puerto Rico take over New York instead and defeat the US government or something. Gee I wonder why the whole thing about Bad Bunny playing the Super Bowl caused the uptight fuckwads who believe that women should become a kitchen to have a Super Bowel and allegedly make their own halftime show that will consist of artists like Billy Jim Joe-Bob and the Tract’r Fuck’rs of the GodJesus Holy Glory playing songs with titles so racist that only the lyrics surpass that level of racism. Just the halftime show though, they’re okay with football itself still, for now, until they somehow invent a new football that involves guns and monster trucks.
  90. Five. Hundred. Cigarettes.
    Doesn’t sound like that cowboy song from that anti-tobacco ad made by the tobacco companies though. I have stopped caring about whatever these songs are a while ago.
  91. You’d rather lie? THEN GET LOST YOU LYING LIAR!
    I swear I’d heard the line “rather lie than lose you” in a bunch of other songs but maybe it was just this one. It just sounds like a phrase that would end up in a bunch of songs. Anyway this is very much not my type of music.
  92. Free Rumi and JINU, whoever they are
    It’s the next to last Netflix song on here. Probably tied to some emotional moment. Maybe this movie ends up being kinda like Romeo and Juliet with some people falling in love across the war boundary or something, and then a bunch of people in leather jackets come out singing about jets.
  93. Somehow YouTube Didn’t Takedown All The Huntrix Songs
    Last one on this list finally. I’m guessing there’s a fight scene in this song. Or it’s just them being like Yo MTV Raps. Then they eat the noodles.
  94. BRING ME THE HEART OF A WOMAN SO I MAY COMPLETE THIS SPELL TO WALK IN SUMMER
    The video is about a woman stuck in a time loop who’s just trying to watch her anime but then gets called over to enter the foggy shower room. It’s some kinda R&B thing here.
  95. House Again? Why Not Hardcore Ultra Metal?
    If you guessed country, yeah it’s country. As if there’s not enough of that here, particularly the slow sappy sad kind.
  96. Dank Thoughts by Small Tecca
    Yeah, definitely some kinda dank thoughts with all the smoke weed, sick reference to Snoop Dogg smoking the weed, because you knew that Snoop Dogg weed smoke, and then they would clap. It’s a rap kinda song I guess and I don’t really care for it.
  97. No Pole, Only Beam by Don’t Oliver
    LOUDEST FUCKING PHONE EVER SHUT THAT UP I’M WATCHING A MOVIE. Also there’s a light pole in that infinite parking lot so this title already lied. And a TV pole inside the infinite super market. And there’s someone constantly spinning on the light pole that causes people to sink into the quickasphalt while watching. For a song I’m otherwise not looking up it sure is a video.
  98. Kehlani Folded Your Clothes In A Folder That Folds Space And Time So It’s Extra Tiny
    Looks more like they’re hung up at the dry cleaners. So more like… dry cleaned. I don’t think I’ve ever had anything dry cleaned. It’s another R&B, but about folding clothes. Not sure if they were washed though. But if they were dry cleaned then it’s probably fine.
  99. I’m not crazy and I’m not calling Morgan Wallen Superman.
    It only took to almost the very end of the list but this is the last song by this one guy, finally. Enough of that. I’ll tell you what this song isn’t, SUPERMAN THAT HO WATCH ME YOUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU CRANK DAT SOULJA BOY. What’s he selling now? The SouljaGame Pro still somehow, the Soulja Boy “AI Smart Glasses”, and the Soulja Boy “Natural Soap – Green Tea & Lemongrass”.
  100. Loco Neton Vega
    This guy so crazy he’ll flip you off with sunglasses I guess. Welcome to Reggaeton again, this time not from Bad Bunny and even mentioning the genre by name. That’s pretty much it.

A whole song list done yet again. That took me a while to get through all of. It sure is music, or at least some variant of it. At least there’s a couple songs I can enjoy on here. As far as music I was more aware of, I’ve got some random picks I’d heard here and there.

And that’s the other list, the short one of songs I heard of that I find more fun in general instead of just figuring out how to yell at them. Provided I’m not horribly murdered or whatever, will I do one for this year’s year-end that might come out in October for all I know at this rate? I guess see how I feel. It took me a while to get around to finishing this one as it is. And speaking of football men, I have another thing related to that very soon that I need to get working on. Just my usual habits each year.
