I actually think Forget Me is a really nice song but his vocals just seem to get worse and worse.

At least we know he hasn’t been autotuned to buggery like some other artists *cough* Taylor Swift *cough*

I quite liked 'Forget Me', particularly in comparison to his previous few singles, but it's ridiculously overplayed to the point of being annoying now. I'm as surprised as everyone else that it finished below ABCDEFU though!

I can't say there's any particular one element to Forget Me that is horrific (I can generally tolerate his vocals though I know others aren't a fan). It's almost aggressively bland though. The Ed Sheeran cast off is worse though, with only Raye and Miley for competition so far that's an early shoe in for the worst of this year lmao. :lol:

I don't love 'Forget Me' (decent song, less than decent vocals) but it's miles better than his more recent #1 at least lol ~ I'm just thankful Heart have still not bothered switching over to playing 'Pointless' yet!

Pretty much deserved for forget me but i'm still mourning about starlight.

You know they will though, it's only a matter of time.

I'm ready for all the hate for this, but I have to confess I don't mind it at all. It's hardly going to end up an enduring classic and she's almost certainly going to remain a one hit wonder but yeah this song doesn't offend me like I know it offends half of Buzzjack!

i agree. GAYLE has some much better songs than abcdefu but its still a fun bop and i still like it! i think a lot of the hate was due to how basic the lyrics are but imo its not exactly harmful lol

I feel like people didn’t mind this at the time and then 6 months later were talking about it as some sort of abomination. I think it’s fine - 12th is also where I ranked it and I’m glad the decision not to include it in the worst #1 rate has been vindicated.

abcedfu is a solid enough 6/10 pop song imo.

Abcdefu is a solid pop song! People do way too much with it's hate for it or to

I still love abcedfu. :P

Not a fan of ABCDEFU at all. Just not my thing, it feels very childish in its lyrics to me in so much as it reminds me of a lyrical tantrum

I guess we’re getting Mariah and Wham! fatigue by this point which probably leads to them being lower than they would be on pure merit. Suspect Wham! will be out soon.

I hate abcdefu partly because it actually made nursery rhymes as break up songs a thing, but it's still bad outside of that, it feels too Gen Z calculated to be personal and for a song that's meant to be so angry, she sings it in such a bored way.

 

Mariah and Wham contributed along with Ladbaby to this being the most stale Christmas chart ever, Rage Against the Machine-style campaign this year please

Encanto was huge for a brief period but then died relatively quickly unfortunately. One of the best collections of original pop songs in a very long time for me.
