RANKED!: Special- 20 Years Of Adult Pop Songs

ProPanda So, uh yeah. Billboard released their greatest of all time Adult Pop Songs and Artists. I'm here to rank them in a special two for one special of RANKED! Not only will I do songs, but I will also do artists.

48. Gotta Be Somebody: Nickleback
47. Ho Hey: Thank the lord Ophelia was a thing
BAD
46. Why Don't You And I: Outside of one song (more on that later), I despise Santana
45. It's Not Over: Yes it is. Daughtry hasn't had a hit in forever44. Rolling In The Deep: The beat is pretty standard, and oh lord Adele sounds so grating here. Like the lyrics though.

41. Hanging By A Moment: Lifehouse
40. Unwell: Meh
39. If You're Gone: Meh
38. 3AM: Meh
37. Bent: Meh
36. Let Her Go: I wanna like this so bad. The lyrics are heartfelt, and the beat's ok. But uh yeah, this dude's voice completely ruins the song.
35. Torn: Meh
34. Don't Speak: I'm indifferent on No Doubt, but I'll say this: It's better than that phase Gwen was going through during the mid-2000s

20. How To Save A Life: The Fray
19. Bubbly: I really shouldn't like this as much as do lol

17. Hey Soul Sister; Would have been Top Ten if not for the horrible lyrics
GREAT
16. Just Give Me A Reason: One of the only solo Nate Ruess songs I like
15. Stronger (What Dosen't Kill You): A Kelly Clarkson with some groove to it
14. Somebody That I Used To Know: Charlie Puth, Shawn Mendes, even THE CHAINSMOKERS weren't able to make a duet of this sort that matched this song's legacy
13. Drops Of Jupiter: Remember when Train was actually good
12. Smooth: There's a reason this was #1 on the orginal
11. Shut Up And Dance: Now that the overplay has died down, I can enjoy this once again
