What's wrong with it? Not really my thing, but it sounds pretty good as far as modern pop songs go.

Generic Shlocky Empowerment Anthem #1,012,712

Plus, the lyrics really come across more as insecure and desperate than inspiring or powerful

Agreed it's not offensive-sounding, but it's pretty aggravating to me anyway.

I get that, but what makes it worse than the previous 1,012,711? At least it's genuinely catchy, a saving grace many such songs don't have.

I also think the lyrics sounding insecure and desperate (yeah, they kinda do) could work in its advantage, highlighting that it's often the flip side of apparent determination. Not saying that was the author's intent, but to me that doesn't make them more annoying than they'd be otherwise.

Call me clichéd, but I don't think anything is ever gonna beat I Will Survive in that department.

I guess, to me, it just feels like the anthem of those people on Facebook who post those "I'M SO INDEPENDENT AND STRONG" memes in between deeply insecure complaints about their relationships and personal life Tongue

And I guess the reason that doesn't bother me is because I have a few acquaintances like that and they're very fine people by and large. Tongue

Pretty hilarious that the official 1996 Song was even worse: the Macerena of all things.

Oh God. Now THAT's horrifying.

I did watch it and yeah, it's pretty trippy but still doesn't justify hearing this monstrosity.
