YMMV / Hanson

• Awesome Music: Hanson were arguably the Teen Pop group of The '90s, and they're no slouches in making pop music today.
  • Middle Of Nowhere is chock full of great pop music: "MmmBop" and to a lesser extent, "Where's The Love" were big singles for a good reason; they're basically a white Jackson 5 with an Alternative Rock kick to them. And if you think those are catchy, check out the album's hidden track, "Man From Milwaukee"!
  • "Penny & Me," widely considered to be the single where Hanson both literally and figuratively grew up and proved that they could hold their own as a rock band plenty well despite their One-Hit Wonder label.
  • "This Time Around." The piano build into a soulful chorus has incredible impact, and it's a shame this song isn't better remembered.
  • Of course, there's the de facto proof that Hanson's Still Got It as grownups: the absolutely boss dance track "Thinking 'Bout Something."
  • 'I was Born' is a really good sing-along.
• Germans Love David Hasselhoff: "Save Me" played in a popular Brazilian soap opera, and is thus their biggest hit in the country after "MmmBop" (in that link alone, 90% or more of the comments are in Portuguese!).
• Never Live It Down:
  • Part of why their more recent, more mature work is limited to niche appeal is... well, they started out with "MmmBop."
  • From 2020 onwards, the band attracted a more notorious reputation when "Hansongate" happened, where many fans criticized one of the band members for posting anti-BLM and anti-COVID memes on their Pinterest page and another for making anti-COVID posts on their Instagram page, with even mods on the bands official sub-reddit calling them out for their poor behavior and with many former-fans swearing off the band forever as a result of their disturbing viewpoints.
• Signature Song: "MmmBop".
• Sweetness Aversion: Most of their work consists of upbeat Silly Love Songs.
• Viewer Gender Confusion: Not a few straight males mistook them for girls in the "MmmBop" video, leading to some embarrassing moments later on.
