There’s something about music that makes us forget about the crazy world around us. But we oftentimes get too caught up in the beat and flashy music videos that we forget to listen to the words. So here’s a list of songs that you’ve probably listened to but haven’treally listened to:
“MmmBop” – Hanson
Before we had the Jonas Brothers, we had the Hanson brothers. This song shot to No.1 on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1997, and everyone loved the happy-go-lucky, blonde-haired boys. As people clapped along to MmmBop, they didn’t realize the song is about losing the things that make us happy: “In an mmmbop they’re gone / In an mmmbop they’re not there.”
