What was a song you thought was cool and clever but is now cringe
Ok so when I was in like 8th or 9th grade I think 3oh!3 had just came out and they had their first hit with Don’t Trust Me and there was this one line when they were like ‘tell your boyfriend if he says he’s got beef that im a vegetarian and I ain’t f*ckin scared of him’ and everyone was just like OOOOOOOOOOOOO they snapped and now I listen to it and the song still slaps but I’m like omg this line actually isn’t that cool at all I cringe. Not to mention in the same song they literally go ‘shush girl, shut your lips, do the hokey pokey and talk with your hips’ like sir? What?
So what’s a song that you used to like that you go back and you’re like this…this was lame.

Just Got Paid, Lets Get Laid - Millionaires... Even though it's cringe I can admit that they did the damn thing!
Blurred Lines from Robin Thicke i think is his name. He is not worth the time to google.
I mean, I’m the only person I know that likes Nickelback so I think I’m incapable of finding music cringe. I even thought Rebecca Black’s Friday was a bop.
Oh man, the cringiest for me were the songs I would "dedicate" to my crush. Like, I would hear something on the radio, and be convinced that it would be OUR SONG, and I would write the lyrics in a little journal I had with my friend.
The worst part was... I don't really listen to song lyrics (I'm weird, I know), so I would pick songs that had no connection whatsoever to love. 1/2
Jason Derulo's "Ridin' Solo". Yes, it helped me get through a few break ups in high school and was a blast to my confidence to get me back on track. But now? EHHHHH. Looking back it was just an ok song, kind of cheesy.
How much time do you have? I earnestly liked the boy bands of the late '90s. I don't know if we'd call what Max Martin did "music" or "mind manipulation" but I loved it, and now that my brain has matured, it is so so cringe.
Ok, so recently Spotify served up Timbaland's The Way I Are -- and I still love the beat and the chorus, but the lyrics are SO CRINGE. The first verse is ---
"I ain't got no money. I ain't got no car to take you on a date. I can't even buy you flowers."
He's a freakin loser!! Dude doesn't have $20 to buy some flowers?? He rents a room in a house?? Girl RUN!!
