In this episode of 1001 Songs That Make You Want To Die, the boys take flight—literally and metaphorically—as they dive headfirst into R. Kelly’s delusional gospel-ballad-turned-Olympic-theme, “I Believe I Can Fly.” From Space Jam nostalgia to the harsh reality of sex crimes, Chibbs, Bevo, and Dan Southern unravel the bizarre lyrics, ridiculous metaphors, and the twisted irony of a convicted criminal writing about...

Or… Travis Kelce’s actual wood? 🌲😳 Join Chibbs, Bevo, Gav, and Mad Dog as they unpack every ridiculous lyric, dissect the erection metaphors, and debate whether Taylor’s officially gone full Katy Perry.

Let Her Cry was one of the biggest hits of the 90s — but does it actually hold up, or is it just a sloppy, tear-soaked mess? In this episode, we rip into Hootie & the Blowfish’s overblown ballad, from the melodramatic lyrics to the vocal delivery that made Darius Rucker a household name. Is this song a heartfelt classic, or the definition of cringe? Listen in as we tear it apart and decide whether Let Her Cry ...
Want to request a song? Tell us your rating? Send us a Text Message right now! Alex Warren tried to pour his heart into Ordinary — but did he just give us a beige anthem for the TikTok era instead? We pull apart the lyrics, the delivery, and the over-produced vibe to see why this song feels less “relatable” and more… painfully average. Join us as we debate whether Ordinary is a harmless pop track or an earworm that should’ve stayed on mute. 👉 New episodes every week. Don’t forget to rate, fo...
Want to request a song? Tell us your rating? Send us a Text Message right now! Naughty By Nature’s O.P.P was a 90s hip hop anthem — catchy, controversial, and confusing as hell. But what does O.P.P even mean, and does the song actually hold up? In this episode of 1001 Songs That Make You Want To Die, we break down the lyrics, the innuendo, and why this track had parents panicking while kids sang along without a clue. Expect comedy, wild tangents, and more shade than a bucket hat in 1991. 👉 F...

In this episode of 1001 Songs That Make You Want To Die, we tear apart the lyrics, debate the meaning, and ask if Dylan was a genius poet or just mumbling nonsense with a guitar. Expect comedy, hot takes, and a lot of shade thrown at one of the most “important” songs in music history. 👉 Follow us on socials:...

Golden – Huntr/xScore: 7.4 Huntr/x’s Golden arrives like a motivational poster you’d find hanging in a gym bathroom, but set to a synth line that sounds vaguely like it was borrowed from a video game character’s redemption arc. It’s a song that insists on optimism with the ferocity of a Labrador that’s just discovered a tennis ball. Musically, Golden shuffles between indie-pop earnestness and Spotify algorithm-fri...
Want to request a song? Tell us your rating? Send us a Text Message right now! Cry for You – SeptemberScore: 8.1 In 2006, Petra Marklund, better known by her Europop nom de guerre September, released Cry for You, a track that felt less like a song and more like a government-mandated vaccination against sadness. Somewhere between a breakup anthem and an IKEA flat-pack instruction manual for melancholy, the Swedish queen of cry-while-dancing gifted the world a chorus that managed to be both ni...

Keith Urban & Pink – One Too ManyScore: 3.4 It takes a certain kind of courage to title your duet One Too Many when the song itself sounds like it was written after exactly that number of beers. Keith Urban and Pink, two pop-country-adjacent titans, come together here not so much in harmony as in a musical custody battle over who can out-melodramatise the other. Spoiler: nobody wins. On paper, the song is abou...

Sabrina Carpenter — “Manchild” Pitchfork Score: 5.8 On “Manchild,” Sabrina Carpenter trades in her usual sugary pop flair for what feels like a subtweet set to music. The song drips with sarcasm, which is fitting, because it sounds like it was written directly after seeing an ex-boyfriend post a thirst trap captioned “rise and grind.” Carpenter takes aim at the boy-men of the world: guys who Venmo you $7.43 for h...

Benson Boone — “Beautiful Things” Pitchfork Score: 6.4 Benson Boone’s “Beautiful Things” is the kind of song that sounds like it was carefully engineered to play during the end credits of a Netflix teen drama—specifically the episode where the main character finally kisses their crush, only for it to start raining in cinematic slow motion. Boone’s voice trembles with the sincerity of someone who just discovered h...

Thompson had written Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas as a sugar-coated rom-com, Waking Up in Vegas would be the soundtrack. Katy Perry delivers a glitter-fuelled ode to bad decisions, late-stage capitalism, and the kind of hangover that makes you question both your life choices and whether you’re wearing someone else’s pa...

Pitchfork Review – Joe Dolce: Shaddap You Face Score: 8.7 (Best New Meme) Joe Dolce’s Shaddap You Face is the kind of song that makes you question not only the nature of music, but the nature of civilisation itself. In 1980, while the rest of the world was contemplating the looming nuclear winter, Joe Dolce decided to weaponise a mandolin and a catchphrase to wage war on taste. Dolce’s delivery—equal parts comedy...

Simple Plan – “Shut Up!” Lava Records; 2004 2.1/10 If teen angst were a currency, Simple Plan would be Canada’s largest export. And “Shut Up!” is perhaps their most shrill, sugar-coated contribution to the pop-punk economy: a three-minute tantrum in skinny jeans, flung onto CD like a Hot Topic receipt someone refused to recycle. Released in 2004, a golden era when every mall had at least one screaming adolescent...

Black Eyed Peas – “Shut Up” Interscope; 2003 1.4/10 There’s a moment—roughly 43 seconds into “Shut Up”—when the listener is already wondering what unspeakable acts they committed in a past life to deserve this. This is not so much a song as it is a group therapy session that accidentally got auto-tuned, given a reggaeton-lite beat, and released to the public as punishment. Let’s be clear: Elephunk was never OK C...

Send us a Text Message right now! 🎙️ Shut Up Month Continues on 1001 Songs That Make You Want To Die 🎙️ All month long, we're celebrating songs that open with attitude and close with confusion — all united by one shared desire: that someone, somewhere, would just shut up. This week, we swerve into the spray-tanned heart of Australian Idol aftermath with a rock-pop anthem that asks, “What if a leather wristband wrote a love song?” Today’s offender...

Send us a Text Message right now! 🎙️ Welcome to “Shut Up Month” on 1001 Songs That Make You Want To Die 🎙️ This July, we’re diving headfirst into songs that told the world to pipe down — whether they meant it romantically, rebelliously, or just didn’t feel like having a conversation. Each episode, we dissect a song with “Shut Up” in the title, peeling back the layers of pop posturing, lyrical chaos, and accidental comedy. Today’s feature: Rihanna...

There are songs that move culture. And then there is “Shower” by Becky G—a song that boldly asks, what if brushing your teeth could be a personality? Let’s be clear: “Shower” isn’t so much a pop song as it is a bubblegum-scented middle school diary entry set to a ringtone. Released in 2014, a s...

Silentó – “Watch Me (Whip / Nae Nae)” TurnUp Records / Capitol – 2015 1.6 By the time Silentó commands us to “watch me whip,” a full seven seconds into the track, you already know you’ve boarded a train bound for post-ironic oblivion. What follows is not so much a song as it is an unrelenting instructional video, powered by algorithmic momentum and the spiritual energy of every PTA meeting gone wrong. “Watch Me ...
