But the hype behind "Seven Nation Army" largely derives from the colossal sound Jack White managed to create while only using two instruments. It's as technically impressive as it was popular.

"Royals," meanwhile, signaled a new era of pop music by rejecting the glamour of the previous era while also bringing minimalism to the forefront. It was like little else before it in the pop sphere.

Neither of these songs get their hype purely from being 'fun.' There are dozens of songs every year that top the charts and get no lasting attention - there is a clear cultural difference between "Royals" and something like "Shape Of You" or "All About That Bass."

you know what. Thats actually fair for Royals. You are right, I still think 20 is ridiculous but I can agree it was a line of demarcation for pop songs, and that is warranted top 100 when you also factor its a great song. Thats historical significance as well as greatness. Thats certainly top 100
