I don't even think of Baby Shark as a meme, it's a kids song that got jumbled up in the YouTube algorithm that wound up being so incessantly catchy that it penetrated the adult world, that's kind of impressive to me

If you have friends with babies “baby shark” is less of a meme and more of a daily soundtrack.

I've definitely watched Baby Shark at least 5 times. I don't know how that happened.

okay folks, i'm sorry to have to do this...But i must admit that "Baby Shark" did NOT place at #19... it actually landed at #350. I'll leave it in the playlist for awhile tho'.Your true #19 (which isn't much of an upgrade imo) will post in just a moment.

as novelty songs about animals from past years go i much prefer “whose billy goat is this” or even “baby monkey riding on a pig”

I have seen three different pantos this year. "Baby Shark" was the end-of-show community singalong in all of them.

Aww. Though at least I was proven right in my initial assessment!

Voted for Nyan Cat as my number #1 at the time, still stand by that

If this turns out to be the 1975 again then you've ruined the whole poll.

now this is where "this is america" comes in as a second fakeout right?

Is it bad that I'm disappointed this was the fake out?

this makes me wonder if "venice bitch" is coming
― resident hack (Simon H.), Thursday, 31 January 2019 17:26 (five years ago) link
good song but a little high especially since “venice bitch” is prob coming up
― jolene club remix (BradNelson), Thursday, 31 January 2019 17:26 (five years ago) link
This song just makes me want to listen to Wicked Game.
― Johnny Fever, Thursday, 31 January 2019 17:26 (five years ago) link
lol xp
Gotcha! Sorry guys had to place the joke winner somewhere lower this year so you could fall into the trap.
Babyshark rules though.

allow me to be the first to say "I prefer Baby Shark"
― Fuck the NRA (ulysses), Thursday, 31 January 2019 17:27 (five years ago) link
voted "Venice Bitch" over this which is presumably still to come, but this is still one of her strongest
― ufo, Thursday, 31 January 2019 17:27 (five years ago) link
next year y’all should roll out a fake top 20
― jolene club remix (BradNelson), Thursday, 31 January 2019 17:27 (five years ago) link
this song is like a weyes blood song without the, yknow, amazing songwriting imo
― imago, Thursday, 31 January 2019 17:27 (five years ago) link
I did it at 20 AND 19 last, but 19 gave the joke away.

gr80 did a fake top ten up til like #7 one year, that was funny

"Baby Shark" is the first song I've listened to on this whole list so far.

i didn't think much of this one at first but it has slowly become one of my favorite LDR songs
― diamonddave85 (diamonddave85), Thursday, 31 January 2019 17:28 (five years ago) link
i prefer baby shark to this, tbh
― simmy simmy ya, simmy yam simmy yay (voodoo chili), Thursday, 31 January 2019 17:29 (five years ago) link
I don't actually like Baby Shark, it's just that as ar as my kids are concerned any three-syllable word or phrase with a OoO stress pattern is automatically followed by do-do-do-do-do-do and that's alright by me.
Lana Del Ray has had less of an impact on them, frankly.

There's worse things songs can make you want to do imo.

listening to this LDR song on spotify, is it badly encoded or is her voice really that compressed on the chorus? sounds like she's singing into a kazoo
― suggest boban (Will M.), Thursday, 31 January 2019 17:29 (five years ago) link
had to check to see if I remembered to vote for "venice bitch" (I did)

'Mariners Apartment Complex (Home of Baby Shark, Grandma Shark etc)'

I'd like to hear Lana's take on the Spongebob theme.

LDR has always sounded to me like she's singing into a kazoo; never understood the draw.
― Fuck the NRA (ulysses), Thursday, 31 January 2019 17:32 (five years ago) link
Are you alluding to Siegbran's description of Chris Isaak as the male LDR? Because that was indeed otm.

idk how i never caught it until now. is she singing into a fucking podcast mic wtf
― suggest boban (Will M.), Thursday, 31 January 2019 17:33 (five years ago) link
imagine buying this on vinyl
xps the compression is intentional i believe. it's part of what she's calling her pre-album "fan songs" that i imagine are going for a lo-fi demo quality
― diamonddave85 (diamonddave85), Thursday, 31 January 2019 17:33 (five years ago) link
that is maddening. the song is beautiful but that is fucking maddening
