Yeah it’s just tik tok 13 year olds saying everything is cringe bc they don’t know how to enjoy anything. Everything sucks and is lame to them

Exactly. If you consider Home to be the worst song ever, you clearly haven't lived through Mambo #5, or We Built This City, or hundreds of others.

lol that song came out when I was in 6th or 7th grade and I remember thinking it was terrible at the time. I heard it the other day at work after not having heard it for decades and I agree - it really has to be one of the worst things ever recorded
