To me it's a rather forgettable song. The hook is great, but the rest is pretty average for a song that's reigning.

In Australia at least, it's everywhere but at the same time absolutely nowhere. Nobody talks about it.

Another retarded post where the poll question negates the thread title.

The results dont mean very much as a result.

Why is everybody so pressed about that song?

It's no 'LTWYL', but it's a cute bop.

It doesnt seem like a number 1. I'd say timber is more popular right now but then again i dont live stateside

It doesn't have any cultural impact, just one of 'em quick singles.

People are intelligent enough to read the question under the title of the thread

It's one of Em's most forgettable singles ever. It's a smash hit only because Eminem and Rihanna's name tbh but I'm not even mad tho. It's Em's another #1 hit

It's completely forgettable

The song itself is great and the video is one of Eminem's best. I'm currently deciding on putting it on my Year-End list but I'm not sure if it should slip onto 2014's.

Forgettable but the next n1 (timber) will be even more forgettable

of course the people who's fave didn't get a number one in years going to say it's "forgettable".

I think it will be remembered, since I've been hearing it loads the past couple of months. When you hear a song that much, it's difficult to forget it.

It's not like it's 'One More Night'.

Though I remember those reggae influences. That's the best part of that song, I guess.

Pretty much.

The Monster will be remembered for sure.

Stop the drama.
Start the music.

Because not promoted.

At first it showed great signs of promise to be the next really big smash hit, but the way that it's been handled has been so questionable. It's like since it's hit the #1, they don't even care about it anymore. They don't promote it or anything. Like, it's #1 and selling so well and getting so many streams on hype and the fact that it's a good song alone, imagine if they actually tried to make it a hit? It'd have Blurred Lines-type longevity tbh.

So yeah, it's probably going to be forgotten, but it really shouldn't be.

The thing is that it had huge sales in the first weeks and I guess people felt really surprised it didn't hit #1 right away. A great song is a great song, but it's very personal on Eminem's side, I mean like how can you bring 'The Monster' in a typical conversation?

I guess people love to jam or hang out with it, watch the video, etc. Or the people who like it are not so vocal on the media.
