Hey everyone!! As usual, it's Wednesday and I've got a lot of memes to do! I think I might even go one step further and make an actual post about the music I've been listening to lately. Also, I think I want to start doing one non-meme post every day or as much as I can. I'm a little concerned that this is becoming a meme blog and I'm sure there are readers who don't really appreciate reading memes all the time. I like them, but some find them too cute or annoying or cheesy. I can see where those people are coming from, so I want to provide actual thoughts from my brain on here too. Music is my life right now, so it'll probably be a lot of music posts.

Speaking of music, here's the Midweek Music Meme:

What hit song of the last 5 years do you think will become a “golden oldie” 2 or 3 decades from now?

The only song I can think of right now is "The Reason" by Hoobastank. Say what you want about it, or the band, but "The Reason" was a great little piece of sentimental pop magic. It crossed over majorly and eventually got overplayed. "Crazy In Love" by Beyonce might become a golden oldie too. It was overplayed as well, but you cannot deny how good it is and how well it works as a pop/r&b song. Other than those two, I cannot think of a single popular song from the past five years that stands out in my mind as something lasting.
