The track topped the Billboard Hot chart for six weeks. In recent years, this misheard lyric has spawned its own meme that pops up each spring: a picture of a frosted-tip, curly-haired Justin Timberlake spouting the wrong lyrics. It reached 6 on the Billboard Hot , and inspired legions of covers that were posted on platforms like YouTube, Instagram, and Twitter.
Several of the covers actually included this misheard lyric. During that time, most fans assumed this line was just gibberish. There was even speculation that it was a coded dirty message. The song reached 1 on the Billboard Hot and received heavy airplay after its release in The track is a stream-of-consciousness-style song that lists all the events Joel feels defined his generation. The list is so lengthy that Joel has admitted having trouble remembering all the lyrics. In the original, expletive-laden version of this song, CeeLo Green drops the F-bomb 16 times in the span of 3.
Even still, it reached 2 on the Billboard Hot and broke the 2 million view mark on YouTube within one week of its release. It closed their show out on July 29, , and six months later their lead singer, Glenn Frey, was dead. While the song is a fan favorite, it was never released as a single, which helped to boost album sales.
A large part of that success was due to the media attention that surrounded the unrated cut of the video, which featured topless women, being banned. Mitchell told The Los Angeles Times that she wrote the song after her first trip to Hawaii, where they had literally paved paradise to put up a parking lot. But not everyone hears it that way. It might also be their most misunderstood song. The media attention ended up helping boost the overall popularity of the song, which hit 1 in both the U.
While we know Madonna as a very outspoken performer today, this was one of her first tracks to openly deal with a political issue. He even went so far as to occasionally sing the incorrect lyric in concert while nodding or pointing at a male member of his band up on the stage. One of R. He always carries you through, and these songs are a reminder that you matter and that God is working.
He is bringing you along into His story. Email Address. Sign Up. This bonus track from Take Me Home emulates Journey in its big, euphoric chorus — perfect for driving with the top down. This rousing track from Four was a great choice to close the standard edition of Four with. Another song where the band struggle to pull off some clumsy metaphors, albeit with some lovely vocals from Styles.
Another, possibly controversial ranking. A spookily prescient song that in hindsight appears to have predicted Malik would be the first one to walk away. This Randy Newman-inspired number is cheesy and trite as hell, but you'll probably find yourself singing along to the chorus.
Not a Michael Jackson cover, but a driving Eighties-inspired song that makes you want to move. This song is literally just the titles of other songs.
Zero marks for originality, full marks for cheek. Kudos for actually managing to make this list of physical flaws sound like it was written by an actual serial killer, though. Folk influences redolent of The Lumineers give this track from Midnight Memories a spirited, uplifting feel.
Robbie Williams, is that you? Another one that seems to find little favour in 1D song rankings, but is a complete bop. A similar sound crops up on his latest solo album, Heartbreak Weather. Extra points for Styles and his Willy Wonka references. Is that a influence I hear? A defiant song that has 1D paying proper tribute to all the great boybands who came before them. Harry Styles gets top marks for sheer audacity with this blatant riff on a classic song by his ex-girlfriend, Taylor Swift.
Perhaps not the most obvious choice for number one, this enormously underrated track from Take Me Home has a title that belies its disarmingly mature approach, from the lyrics to the romantic production filled with sweeping violins and tender guitars.
