Shakespeare was known for his prolific writing. His famous pieces like Romeo and Juliet and Macbeth gave him his known name. Along with the viral “what would put a pilgrim child into a coma” trend, here is a list of modern songs I think Shakespeare would disapprove of (In no particular order).
“What Does The Fox Say”- Yivis
“Dog goes wolf, Cat goes meow” I don’t think Shakespeare would comprehend that.
“Novacane”- Frank Ocean
He would give the song a chance because he wouldn’t understand it. Once it’s explained he would implode.
“Yummy”- Justin Beiber
Shakespeare would be confused.
“Boyfriend”- Dove Cameron
Because Shakespeare was secretly gay.
“Pink Mist”- Ghostmane
Give Shakespeare some earbuds and lock him in a room with this song.
“Roll in Peace”- Xxxtentaction
A whiff of a joint would make Shakespeare pass out.
Anything Brittnay song covered by Glee
No need for context.
The ‘Spongebob Squarepants’ theme song
The concept of a walking and talking sponge would not amuse him.
Any music video by Gaga or Katy Perry
West Coast represent.
“Super Shy”- new jeans
The first note of this song would send him into shock.
The list can go on and on, I feel like Shakespeare would have a limited taste in modern music. What songs do you think Shakespeare would disapprove of?
