High Hopes by Panic! At The Disco


This song is about as corny and hokey as any song could possibly be. The lyrics throughout are infantile nonsense. It is a song about believing in yourself, but what is the point in believing in yourself just to make songs about believing in yourself? It is a recursive nightmare of self absorbed idiocy. It is the lyrical equivalent of inspirational posters, ones made exclusively for mama’s boys and other milquetoast man-duds. 

The verses are grotesque pop crooning, saccharine sweet, and they cannot prepare you for the ham-fisted attempt at an anthemic chorus sung in a strained, nasally voice that sounds like shopping cart wheels screeching. 

If this song makes you feel good about yourself, you probably don’t deserve to.
