base talk Is Say So the most influential record of the 2020s decade so far?

[frankvert]

Inspired by this Twitter thread… do you agree ATRL? If not, what would you say is? 
 

 

[Trent W]

It has only really influenced espresso 

 

And it's too soon, the track is still recent

 

I do think it's going to be huge for decades tho, it got ingrained in our generation as one of the pandemic classics 

 

Same as Blinding Lights

Honestly there have been a lot of "Say So" type songs. Can't think of them at this exact moment but there's been many a time I've thought "sounds like say so" these past years 

[fememeist]

Inspired Feather, Nonsense

some of Chappell's songs

 

[family.guy123]

Yes let's credit *checks notes* doja cat 

[dumbsparce]

Absolutely. Its template is still used in 2024 to huge success.

Cupid? Big Energy? Feather? And I only mentioning actual hits, if you read the thread there's a lot of other songs.

 

OT: absolutely 

[bielneira]

I do think so.

[selena_lavigne]

Never liked that song. 

[Aurora]

The twitter thread is literally listed in the OP and it's clear most of y'all didn't even bother reading past the thread title / first tweet.  Never change, ATRL.

[Attaboy]

No def not. It's catchy and glossy but also totally hallow 

[Billionaire]

And even then that thread is missing alot of songs in KPOP like Weekend by Taeyeon. So I have to say yes I fear

The Twitter thread listed a lot of them. They just weren't hits  (some even also produced by Luke)…which speaks to Dojas input (writing/vocals) being a huge reason for its success, imo. 

[CherryBay]

I think Dr.Puke sound than anything

[Rino]

it is a very well crafted pop song but influential? nah. 
even though I can't quite put my finger on it, it feels like I've heard Say So type of songs million times, even before its release.

Dr. Luke did that type of sound before with Kim Petras 

 

[I Melt Away]

Yes… there's literally a Say So clone in every country. There's a new Say So clone everyday.

It's there 

 

OT: yes. even the Korean queen Taeyeon had a smash hit emulating it 

 

 

[Ubermensch]

It influenced Taeyeon to make a better version 

[hallucinate]

yes 100%

the evidence is right there

[Sailor Moon]

that song created a whole wave in kpop 

[Erreur2 La Nature]

I like Say So but I'm curious to know in what ways it has influenced music. The only song that sounds a bit similar I can think of is Espresso. 

[Harrier]

Unironically yes, but I will also note that Say So isn't that original itself - it's a throwback song/similar to ms Gottwald's other productions - so let's not get too carried away
