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.

Kelly Osbourne: “Papa Don’t Preach” Epic Records, 2002 Pitchfork Rating: 3.7In a move that can only be described as “aggressively Y2K,” Kelly Osbourne—daughter of Ozzy, wearer of neon hair, and survivor of MTV’s The Osbournes—emerged from the reality-TV fog of war to drop her cover of Madonna’s “Papa Don’t Preach.” A bold choice, given that Madonna’s version is iconic, controversial, and, crucially, good.

Matchbox Twenty – "Unwell" Atlantic; 2003 3.2By: Dax Mumberson, Pitchfork ContributorThere are songs that define an era, and then there’s “Unwell” by Matchbox Twenty—a song that limply gestured at defining something before retreating back into a GAP sweater of its own design. Released in 2003, but spiritually 1998, “Unwell” is a murky broth of acoustic sincerity, radio-safe angst, and the sonic equivalent of a

Scandal’us – Me, Myself & I (2001) ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ (Pitchfork, 10.0)In an era bloated with faux-indie self-seriousness and turn-of-the-millennium testosterone-pop, Me, Myself & I arrived like a rhinestoned meteor, obliterating subtlety and redefining post-reality-TV sonic maximalism. What begins as a breakup anthem quickly transcends genre, gender, and good taste, ascending into something close to pop transcendence

She's just sitting in her neon-lit studio, sipping Surge, thinking, "What the world really needs right now is the spiritual successor to Eiffel 65 but with more eyeliner and

Want to request a song? Tell us your rating? Send us a Text Message right now! *“Short People” by Randy Newman is a snarky, satirical jab masquerading as a pop song, delivering a wildly exaggerated roast of vertically-challenged folks with lines so ludicrous they border on cartoon villainy. With its bouncing piano and upbeat melody, the song mocks short people for everything from their “little hands” to their inability to “get around,” all while clearly winking at the listener with tongue planted

In this unsettling reimagining, the smooth-talking, swagger-filled narrator isn’t here to party… he’s luring kids with charm, games, and magic tricks under the guise of fun. He struts through neighborhoods with a twisted grin, tossing candy, whispering riddles, and leading children astray with hypnotic dance moves. Dressed to impress in a shadowy pinstripe suit, he hides his true motives behind catchy rhymes and a slick
