The problem with these threads is that a few people seem either illiterate or delusional.

 

Imagine thinking One Kiss and, LMLYD, New Rules are "classics", be serious

Love me like you do gets 1m daily streams on Spotify and YouTube.

 

The song also gets a viral meme every year. It's the iconic 'what are you waiting for' meme.

 

Not to mention it's a Valentine's Day classic 

 

It's selling 1m units per year in the US

 

If you think LMLYD isn't a classic then what is?

 

One Kiss gets a huge resurgence every summer. Last year, once kiss had its best streams in a long time. Every summer the song will surge higher and higher. That's what a classic does.

A classic isn't defined by what your heart thinks is or is not a classic.

 

It's STATS. Point blank period.

no one compares u stand alone to every record i own 

[JawBreaker]

Only on ATRL they will say recurrent streams is a non factor to a song being a classic 

I agree it shouldnt be the end and be all but at least thats tangeable compared to yalls pill popping barebacking worthless opinions...

[Into The Void]

Many songs named could be future classics but its too soon

 

This was really a fun read tho

The replies in here, lmao.... 

"Insert someone you dislike"....

Gurl...

Massive hit/trillion streams/PRstunts/Payola/Awards/Superior vocals =/= Classics

Classic define time, genre, change, innovation, signature, impact, influence. A Staple of an artist, proving their excellence and place in the music industry... There is artists remembered for their massive hits. But there is artists, remembered for classics, and the impact made with it. 

Saying Mariah(Fantasy feat ODB, WY, WBT, H, MA, TR), Madonna(Vogue, LAV, LAP, EY), Janet(C, N, E, A, S, WHYDFML, TTLG etc), Beyonce(SL, CIL, H, L, LOT, etc), even Xtina(B,GIB, R, D, F, H) has 0 classics is example of pure ignorance. 

Educate yourself, before knock your keyboard with to spill some online diarrhea and put your generation in shame...

 

Lets be real now....

Taylor Swift... Massive star, massive stream count, massive PR machine, Massive activism... but classics... Not yet 

Normani (RIP, career).... no, no no....

Iam HUGE fan of her, but Gwen Stefani, solo...

Fergie, solo,

Camilla Cabello, and im her fan...

Demi Lovato

Miley Cirus (love love her, shes probably one of the most talented today)

Dua Lipa

H.E.R

Ariana (Grew on her, and startet love her tho)

Selena Gomez 

Shawn Mendez

Harry Styles

etc etc

 

 

 

 

Now how are you going to go through all that work and still be so wrong.  

[Blue.]

To me a classic is a song that is popular 20 years in and whose status cements around the 10 year mark, so y’all naming songs that were released 5 years ago is a it weird, or artists that have debuted after 2015 is pure clownery.

 

The answer is Christina I think.

[toxicgenie]

Classics are songs that even your grandchildren know, recognize and like.

Beyonce, her catalog is in shambles and she is still pretty relevant so that's a big indicator of no classics

She has Crazy In Love, Irreplaceable, Single Ladies, Halo, and even Run The World 

[xfreshkidxx]

Cardi B 

Megan Thee Stallion

the people are that watched disney channel are now 20-25 years old, that's why it became a classic. Its really not that hard to understand   also never heard those songs. If you're +30 it's normal that u cant understand why LYLALS is classic.

Both songs released in 2000. Pero Me Acuerdo De Tí has more views than Oops!…I Did It Again on YouTube. (overall and daily)

Mariah's biggest (and one of three) hit in Europe is FEATURE

I Know What You Want, Christmas song and Without You (cover) 

 

Not bad, not bad

 

 

Isn't Whitney's biggest hit also a cover?
