TikTok Nursery Rhymes are Ruining Music
Ойын-сауық
Ok well i'm being a lil dramatic lmao music isn't RUINED because of twinkle twinkle little bitch or gayle but... let's talk about how abcdefu's explosion in popularity influenced other songwriters to take a similar approach.

She may not have had the type of power Melanie or Olivia had, which changed the music game and made incredibly incredible music, but still. Knowing Bella’s backstory and stuff, the music helped her have a better life in which she deserved. So I wouldn’t say it’s Bella’s fault, but the people following it ig?

also her songs have a message! basically most of her songs revolve around childhood trauma(??) and that’s why her songs do pretty well! not all of her songs are breakup songs which are pretty much overused at this point and the meanings in her songs have more of a meaning than “omg my ex was such a piece of crap”
The reasoning for blaming Olivia is so flimsy omg. She's a young songwriter. Her songs aren't the most technically composed or the most maturely written, but like you said it FEELS genuine. She writes from a very real place. The genuineness in a song often shines through no matter how basic the chords are. Olivia did not start ANY OF THIS it's 100% abcdefu

I was JUST thinking about this (plus Mary by the Happy Fits and The Moss by Cosmo Sheldrake). They all still managed to be a pretty unique songs, though! They don’t base themselves off of just one song/fable, and used a variety of instruments. Rock gives you a bit more leeway than pop, might be a good way to describe it? So yeah, Wolf in Sheep’s Clothing was definitely a contributor, but it’s still a much better song than most of the ones in this video.

Yup, I also think it’s a gap that’s filled pretty well with just Melanie Martinez. It’s one of those things that can be a defining aesthetic for one or two artists but it feels oversaturated if it’s copied a lot. Also Melanies entire brand is revolved around her aesthetic, it’s just not the same with a relatively normal dressed adult screaming at a teddy bear sampling a nursery rhyme. It’s a completely different artistic vibe imo

The thing is, Gayle wasn't the first one. Little Mix also have a song called ABCDEFU released back in 2016, and if they had a pretty good marketing team and support from their label like Gayle did, and if Tiktok was popular back then, we may have had something like that before. Little Mix could have started the nursery rhyme trend, it did have the authenticity, but just not the right amount of resources to. Although they touched our hearts with other songs way before ABCDEFU, their hard work is still looked upon 'incorrectly' because of how media portrays females. Gayle might have gotten her inspiration from there, but it was just a matter of time anyway.

I feel like we had a Wave 1 of this back in the day… Eenie Meenie (Sean Kingston and JB), Count on Me (Bruno Mars), 1234 (Plain White Tees) all are doing basically the same thing, with Eenie Meenie being the most nursery rhyme inspired. In a sick, twisted sort of way, this is new American folk music: using the nursery rhymes from a simpler time to ironically comment on the present. Ouch it hurt saying that.
personally i think abcdefu actually says something about that anger after a first bad breakup, because that anger is often described as a temper tantrum, and using the ABCs to display that is an interesting idea. it feels intentional, you know? but "twinkle twinkle little bitch" doesn't really have any of that, it's just. edgy for the sake of it.

i think using nursery rhymes to be edgy can work, when used properly. i love Melanie Martinez (don't tell the other metal-heads though, they might behead me if they find out i like a pop star) and i think her use of nursery rhymes is clever. as someone with PTSD (i'm not looking for pity, i'm trying to make a point) i can relate with something child-like being corrupted by trauma, turning that once innocent thing into something horrifying, and Melanie does this very well, because there's also a bit of a horror element with her imagery, adding to the corrupted innocence. but then you have people like these who use nursery rhymes and childish things but makes them edgy with curse words and sexual innuendos, and that's not really clever, it's just trying too hard to be edgy.

1:48 this is “jealousy, jealousy” erasure (though one could argue she’s somewhat saying she’s jealous of the ex’s new girl based on the similar theme in lyrics to the other songs on the album therefore making it a breakup song, i personally choose to believe it is what it is at face value as a social commentary on beauty standards and how it affects peoples self esteem 😅)
I would actually find it interesting if someone made a song BASED off the nursery rhyme and turned into something new. Like maybe a song that takes the rhyme and uses symbolism. Example, maybe a song loosely based off twinkle little star, and the song is about the singer missing the star (who is a representation for someone no longer in their life without being specific)

they’re edited im 90% sure
I make corny tik tok music too, but I hope mine's at least charmingly corny
i write songs kinda like the “nursery rhyme” typa theme (my inspo is melanie 😊) but I also love writing olivia r type songs but I’ve i never put the styles together (except for one song lmao)
Moldogaa has a parody song called "boyfriend" and it absolutely kills me. Almost makes all the trash music seem worth it
Since nobody else is gonna say it, I will. Leah Kate's voice is almost as annoying as James Blunt. LIke CocoMelon type shit.

I think even James Blunt would agree with that if you showed him her videos. 😂
11:56 exactly!! 👌
Great vid!
The voice changes you do are actually lit asf 😭
adding to the good music on tiktok, i found one of my favorite songs on there!! strawberry mentos by leanna firestone!! i haven't listened to any more of her songs, but i'm sure the rest of them are as amazing, even more amazing, than strawberry mentos :)
Lmao in your intro you looked like Zeth for a sec (Saylor and Zeth).
Come on link the artists you mentioned in the description c:
okay okay but ps5 is a good song tho!!! the rest of them, i could take it or leave it. abcdefu grew on me, but so many of these tiktok nursery rhyme songs are so cringy ahhhh
I agree
The only good usage of a nursery rhyme I've heard in 2022 is from MUNA's "Shooting Star" 😌💅

I’ll only be ok with this if these eventually culminate into the lyrics be just pure creepy number stations. Also, Olivia Rodrigo is great, and thank you for looping her out of the slander. Also also, I feel like most of these songs are doing what a lot of some of these shitty video games being pumped out in Unity…it’s just to get some duets or funny clips that get quick and large amount of views. But that’s it.
I shared this video with my mommy 🥺
i think a better use for, like, "childlike themes, but angry" is a song directed towards like, a toxic ex-friend you had when you were young or a shitty caretaker. like, in a way of like "you ruined my childhood but im taking it back" like i feel like when its over an ex it doesnt make sense thematically but i think a song that instead of "fuck my ex" was "fuck my shitty abusive mom" that called back to childhood elements would be like.... REALLY good? obviously with the right amount of skill and everything like you get that but i think the theming of "you stole my childhood from me so im TAKING IT BACK and MAKING IT MINE" would be....kinda cool as hell. actually.
