The past decade boasted a clutch of one-hit wonders that will forever remain “somebody we used to know.” Gotye – “Somebody That I Used To Know” (Feat. Kimbra) Now he’s just somebody that we used to know — Peter Gabriel and Kimbra faded into obscurity after releasing this 2012 smash hit. This 2013 number sparked an international viral sensation — internet users around the world shared videos of themselves standing perfectly still until the drop, when they would go wild. Norwegian brothers Vegard and Bård Ylvisåker released this hilarious, animal sound filled novelty track in 2013. There was a point in 2015 when everybody, and we mean everybody, was doing the novelty dance that made this song so famous. Jamaican singer OMI reportedly worked on this song for six years before it was remixed by Felix Jaehn and released to international fanfare in 2015. This one sparked memes across social media with its bizarre championing of a panda and fast-rap lyrics. Desiigner had quite the year in 2016, but seems to have fallen off the mainstream charts since then
