      **Source:** Data collected from **Year To Beat** ([https://yeartobeat.com](https://www.google.com/url?sa=E&q=https%3A%2F%2Fyeartobeat.com)), a daily browser game where players watch music videos and guess the release year.

      **Tool:** Python (Matplotlib/Scipy).

      **Insight:** There is a „Mandela Effect“ with TLC and Madonna. The crowd consistently guesses that No Scrubs (1999) came out before Ray of Light (1998), flipping the actual historical timeline. Also, the variance in guesses increases significantly as we move from the 1980s to the 2000s.

    2. What was the criteria for picking these particular songs? You only have one from the 80s vs a ton from the 2000s.

      Interesting project though.

    3. Seem like pretty reasonable guess ranges to me? They’re all quite close, plus you need way more songs here to show any real trend.

      Yeah because radio stations worldwide had the „best hits of the 80s, 90s and the super hits of today“ way until 2015.

      Me and my friends sometimes play a game called 90s or 2000s. When a classic (to us mid 30s millennials) comes on anywhere we try to remember if it came out in the 90s or 2000s. We usually get it wrong. A lot of songs we think of as 90s were 2000s.

      So yeah I believe this phenomenon

    7. Feels like a shaky conclusion drawn from a very thin data set. It says more about the songs selected than anything.

    8. Who is „we“?

      If the people you ask grew up in the 80s, of course they’ll remember the debut of those songs better.
