Am I the only one who never liked this song?

Mega classic

[Bubble Tea]

A legendary classic. Surprised it hasn't had a big viral moment, maybe it's so beloved it doesn't need one.

 

P.s when Ellie sings this song in The Last of Us 2, it's an unforgettable moment and the lyrics "take on" an even deeper meaning

It did have a significant boost from The Super Mario Bros movie last year but has just been consistent with regular airplay and constant syncs in media.

No shade no hate. I just find it very annoying. A song being a classic/successful/40 years old doesn't impact my opinion.

[OnlyManInTheWorld]

One of the most influential songs in history.
