    Why Are All the Good Pop Songs in Children’s Films Now?

    Like every other warm-blooded mortal, I am anxiously awaiting Rihanna’s return to music—although I maintain that it should be on her own timeline!—so my heart leapt when I read on Wednesday that the Caribbean Queen would be releasing a new song called “Friend of Mine”…only to then return to Earth with the news that said song would be on the Smurfs movie soundtrack. (No shade to Smurf Village, but am I the only one who can’t help thinking of Seth Rogen’s character on The Studio trying desperately to make a live-action Kool-Aid movie when this particular franchise expansion is brought up?)

    Rihanna’s new song will blessedly drop on Friday, May 16, months before the film is due out, and while I can’t wait to throw ass in the club (okay, dance for 10 minutes and be in bed by 11 pm) to a banger originally recorded for a film intended to suitably distract feral toddlers on a long Sunday afternoon, I can’t help wondering: why is all the good pop music confined to children’s films now? Okay, not all of it, but below, please find my power ranking of hit pop songs originally recorded for the soundtracks of kids’ movies. (There are more than you’d think!)
