By contrast, the funky and celebratory Cake By The Ocean, in 10 years, has racked up nearly 800 million views between these sites, and there are a few more. 

On the lighter side lyrically, definitely, big and funky musically, yes, an uplifting ensemble piece, yes. Let's go fing crazy!

Insanely catchy and hip, lyrically provocative for being pov of a homicidal youth. Yet in 2010, this subject was already well worn - it wasn't 1980s. 

The mumbly vocals actually age somewhat better than other material from 2010. Could be Angus Stone :-) I think this semi-melodic threnody, its tone,  is the actual message, not the words. 

The lounge-lizard perfect music is what has carried this track so far. I can't help loving it, coolest in its genre ever (followed by Cake By The Ocean).  

Disrupting the World's Largest Residential Proxy Network

I can't be surprised at the revelation, though I am a touch surprised at how much this issue is  completely hidden from tech-muggles who, unfortunately, can have this explained and would be none the wiser and not take any precautions.
