What was the last great song? Not the last good song, I mean the last song that was generational, song that will be remembered for centuries to come. Not some shitty pop hit that only charted for a week, Im talking about a song that is timeless, beautiful, intricate. What was the last song written that fit this description?

gucci gang by little pimp

I’M WAKING UP TO ASH AND DUST

I can see "The Less I Know The Better" by Tame Impala or "Bad Habit" by Steve Lacy being remembered for a long time, just for being very well-crafted and distinct.

Green Green Grass by George Ezra

>>122891674
not Bad Habit yet, but you're correct about Tame Impala

I don't know why these faggots are complaining so much. Anyone with a brain knows what you mean. Bohemian Rhapsody is one.. I think I would put Eminem-Stan as well. Red Hot Chili Peppers-Under The Bridge.

Popular culture is too fragmented for that sort of thing to exist anymore.

That isn't the point. It's songs that transcend even the most faggy jaded /mu/tant and make them admit the song is good, even if the artist is shit and is ungodly popular.
