  1. First, and it looks like you've turned on Look What You Made Me Do. Good news for you then: most YouTube critics have this in their Bottom 10 Songs Of 2017.

    1. I can understand why. It won't be in my Bottom 10 simply because they are songs from this year that I've disliked from the start. But it's probably one of the biggest disappointments of the year for me.

      Delete
    2. Actually, I can see where they're getting at. True, it may be polarizing, but that doesn't necessarily mean its bad. Some songs can be polarizing and it can still be really good (for me at least).

      And speaking of Bottom 10, I recently watched Cicabeot1's Top 10 worst songs of 2017, and SPOILER ALERT: you're going to be very happy with his #1 pick.

    3. My gueses:
      Strip That Down
      Bad Liar

      Welcome aboard, young apprentice! (I haven't seen Lance since July.)

      And, if you do feel like you're being exposed to indecent lyrics, I do suggest you start doing Nick Radio (https://www.iheart.com/live/nick-radio-6395/) and the iHeartRadio Family Top 40 (https://www.iheart.com/live/ihr-family-top-40-countdown-7013/) instead.
