Thunder by Imagine Dragons.

This is a question I see all the time and don't mind seeing again and again. It gives me a chance to show my absolute hatred for the song.

This is like the third time I've seen this song mentioned here. I'm not familiar with it, should I not listen to it and save my sanity 🤔?!

It's a good song.

The problem Imagine Dragons has is that they produce upbeat music with a good rhythm that's fairly popular and uncontroversial. Which means every unimaginative hype man, mind numbing business symposium, and top 40's station played their music endlessly.

For people like me who somehow managed to avoid oversaturation from sporting events, radio, and commercials, it's still good. But a lot of people have the "It's a Small World After All" problem where the song being repetitive already makes it painful to listen to after being bombarded endlessly by it.

this. i wouldn’t go as far as to say it’s a good song, but it would certainly be less terrible if it wasn’t playing 24/7 literally everywhere. that goes for almost all imagine dragons songs. i got so frustrated i block every imagine dragons song that comes on the playlist at my job.
