Overplayed Songs

Hello everyone! Today I was listening to music on my way to school and noticed that lately I've heard the same few songs over and over and over again. I decided to put a little list together that shows which songs I've heard the most and why I think they're so overplayed! So thanks in advance for reading and if you have anything you'd like me to blog about, or anything you want to know more about, send me a Facebook message and I'll blog about it next week! Here we go!


1.) All About That Bass - Meghan Trainor
I loved this song when I first heard it so much that I pulled over to download it onto my phone so I could listen to it four more times. It's overplayed because of the first impression you have when you hear it. Overplaying it was its downfall. I can't stand the song anymore.


2.) Maps - Maroon 5
The upbeat pace of this song is what makes it so likely to be overplayed. Also, it's by Maroon 5 and every song they write ends up getting around in some way or another. I like the song, and the simple chorus makes it easy to follow along. I don't mind this song being overplayed at all, but sometimes I wish it wasn't just so I could enjoy it for longer.


3.) Sky Full of Stars - Coldplay
This song honestly is the only reason I ever switch the radio station in my car. Yes, it is a good song. However, the softness of it gives it a really sad and sleepy feeling. The song doesn't make me happy. The only reason I can think of that it would be overplayed would be to break up all the upbeat pop songs. Maybe it's me but I never really got into this one.


4.) Don't - Ed Sheeran
I can understand this song being played so much. I do like the song, so I could be biased but I think this song is incredibly catchy. You don't have to be skilled to sing along to it, and that's exactly what made "Call Me Maybe" popular a while ago. The tune can get stuck in your head so easily which makes it hard not to overplay.


5.) Anaconda - Nicki Minaj
This song is overplayed for obvious reasons. If you listen to the lyrics and don't throw-up you're one lucky person. Unfortunately songs like this are popular especially in this generation.


6.) Bonus : Shake It Off - Taylor Swift
Obviously overplayed because nobody can shake it off...


I'd just like to say as well that I could be wrong. Maybe there are other songs in your top 5 I didn't cover. The reason that may be is because I don't do any research to write this blog since it's all about my thoughts! Maybe you've heard other songs way more, and that's totally fine! Thanks again for reading.
