Outside of being an international crossover, “Despacito”‘s appeal continues to elude me. I don’t think it’s catchy or interesting at all.

ANL has some pretty goofy stuff in it but that chorus is magic. Easy vote.

This is actually hard for me, I enjoyed the latin vibe of both tunes. If Despacito didn't feature Beiber, I'd probably vote for it, I like dancey stuff.

"Despacito" is AWFUL, one of the absolute worst examples of reggaeton-pop, incredibly annoying.

"All Night Long" also sucks but not as hard.

Not my favorite Lionel Richie moment at all, but it's still much better than "Despacito"

I was listening to one of those dorky "how music works" type programs on NPR a few weeks ago and was tickled to learn that the slow down delivery of the word "Despacito" mirrors the meaning.

That being said, I'm going for Lionel Ritchie.

All Night Long wins here. The vocal hooks are about equal to me, but the instrumental flourishes are much better in All Night Long.

It's not Bieber who makes that song bad. The original version didn't feature Bieber and it still fucking sucked.

Despacito is everything I hate about modern music.

All Night Long is great.
