Tonight, I continue posting random songs to this Cortex platform to ask Shackers the same question. Does this song suck? Tonight's song is Fatboy Slim's "Praise You."
Reasons it might suck:
- Fatboy Slim seems to be a fatshaming name
- I think people really remember this song for its music video more than the actual music
- The dancing isn't even that good
- The actual core electronic music loop is kinda boring
- This song isn't even close to the best Fatboy Slim track
Reasons it might not suck:
- The music video was charmingly low budget when it dropped
- The lyrics are somewhat uplifting
- 14 million views on YouTube
- This song was also used in a ton of advertisements
- Video director Spike Jonze sorta looks like Napoleon Dynamite
The question I pose to you, Shacknews... Does this song suck?
