Poll: Most recognized song melody/beat?

YoYo

You know that beat as SOON as it drops everyone would recognize it/the song

Please don't post **** like Bad Romance or Tik Tok, the only contemporary song with such a widely recognizable riff is "Lose Yourself"

.

Haunter

EightSin

We Will Rock You.

Firework

GreasyBruce

We Will Rock You and Billie Jean's beats have been reused so much that you'd have to let a few seconds pass before you recognized them.

But that piano line at the very start of Dancing Queen is instant.

LanaDelRey

Video Games

EdgeOfAddiction

Girl from Ipanema.

But Dancing Queen > Bittersweet Symphony > Billie Jean from the ones listed.

Although, each of these artists (except The Verve) have better known melodies than the ones listed.

I'd also say the opening piano line of "...Baby One More Time" immediately followed by a couple of "oh baby baby"'s are instantly recognizable.

Clump

Just Dance! Obviously

Changes

Billie Jean, Beat It, etc..many MJ songs.

liberalmusiclover

Billie Jean from the poll choices.

"Clocks"

Rama

We Will Rock You
Coldplay's The Scientist
Aqua's Barbie Girl

Marvin

Billie Jean. Never heard of the other two.

Versace

Almost every human being can name We Will Rock You in the first 3 seconds of the song. The epitome of iconic.

WWRY, Thriller, Believe (Cher) and MAYBE Las Ketchup's Asereje.

NewRihannaStan

Dancing Queen Billie Jean! What's My Name? Umbrella We Found Love

YoYo

Y'all are selling Bittersweet Symphony short. It's so ridiculously known. Most people probably won't be able to name the song itself but the melody >>>>>>>>>>>

I can't believe I forgot WWRU

ABBA and MJ have more well known beats?

Cal

We Will Rock You, Hey Jude, Mamma Mia, etc.

I agree there's not many contemporary songs, but I'd argue that Crazy In Love is instantly recognisable. Like, that opening is so ****ing iconic.
