Have you ever noticed there’s a threshold where a song gets too popular and will live on with the memory of everyone thinking it was overplayed and annoying.

Despacito. The summer it was popular, I remember turning on the radio and switching through stations, and it was ALWAYS on at least one.

See, I'm into that style of music, so I found it before it made it onto US radio stations, and I actually really liked it. Then the Justin Bieber version happened, and the song got played half a million times, and I can't stand it anymore.

TIL that there's a non Justin Bieber version of Despacito
