royals is probably so high because of a combination of it being historically significant and the "omg lorde was so young when she made it" factor. that being said, i don't know if it was THAT revolutionary. i think lana del rey laid the groundwork for lorde becoming popular.


That's my bigger problem with the list, lying more in the exclusions than inclusions. "Video Games" did not make the list at all. Overall, this list seems to consider popularity too heavily; they largely picked the right popular songs, but there are plenty of great and influential songs that did not immediately hit the charts that are left off. "Video Games" to "Royals" is a clear chain and it's weird to put one so high and exclude the other.
