1. âFRIENDSâ â Marshmello, Anne-Marie
(Instagram/Twitter: @MarshmelloMusic & @Annemarie)
âYouâre not my lover, more like a brother. Iâve known you since we were like ten.â
âWhen you say you love me, that make me crazy. Here we go again.â
âHavenât I made it obvious? Havenât I made it clear? Want me to spell it out for you? F-R-I-E-N-D-S. Weâre just friends.â
Ouch! Anne-Marie and Marshmello know how to rip the bandaid off the wound without even a warning. But when that person is just not getting the hint, you kind of have to. This is that âFriendzone Anthemâ weâre all going to remember, and probably hum when that person is near us and will not go away. Check out the official music video below, or download the song on Spotify / Apple iTunes Music so you can vibe along with these killer lyrics and catchy tune.
2. âNot In That Wayâ â Sam Smith

âYouâd say Iâm sorry believe me I love you, but not in that way.â
âAnd I hate to say I love you when itâs so hard for me. When you make it so clear you donât want me.â
âAnd I hate to say I need you.â
So we all know Sam Smith at this point. Heâs an incredible talent and is definitely not afraid to put his heart out there. Unfortunately, it appears Sam Smith was friendzoned by the looks of this song, but now he gave all his fans two gifts: a song they can either cope with as the victim of being friendzoned, or a song that subtly tells that fly-in-your-face friend to take a hike. Either way, Sam gave us options, so we can definitely thank him for that. Check out the song below, or download the song on Spotify / Apple iTunes Music.
3. âGive It Upâ â Nick Tangorra

âAre you walking in your sleep again. Are you ok? I saw you called a hundred times again, are you insane?â
âHow can you ask for my all when we were nothing? I told you before, I donât know what else to do. Donât know where you got the idea that we were something.â
âHoney, youâre not the one, give it up. Say itâs wrong, but Iâve had enough. I donât care where you go, good luck! Been wasting all your time, no need to say goodbye.â
If you havenât heard this song or saw the hysterical music video yet, I have no clue what youâre waiting for. Nick Tangorra gave us the best way to get any stage five clinger to back off, in a comical yet alarming way. Swear. Just send that person a direct message of this youtube link below, or playfully tell them to download the song on Spotify / Apple iTunes Music. Theyâll finally catch your drift. And hopefully, stop stalking you too. We can honestly all thank Nick for giving us a fresh, catchy, and clever song that just about everyone can identify with.
4. âFriend Zoneâ â Danielle Bradbery

âYou think youâre doing just fine, but she got you on the sideline. You think youâre flying towards the end zone. Youâre just headed towards the friendzone.â
âLet me break it down to the facts. You will never get a girl like that.â
âYou thought you had it on lock, you were good to go. But thereâs never three strikes in love, you know.â
Using sports as a way to tell someone theyâve struck out? Brilliant. Hats off to Danielle Bradbery for creating a song that we donât have to send directly to that annoying person. Because now, our friends can do it for us! This song seems like the one you ask your friend to âaccidentallyâ text that forever-just-a-friend person. And then both kind of just wait to see what happens. Almost like using tide-to-go on a shirt stain and hoping thatâs just what was needed for it to finally come out. Check out this catchy country spin on being in the friendzone below, and download the song on Spotify and Apple iTunes Music.
5. âFriendzoneâ â GOAT

âYou think sheâs so lovely. You want her so bad. But now she says youâre like the brother sheâs never had.â
âYou think she was flirting. Sheâs texting you back. But now she says that youâre reminding her of her dad.â
âYou think sheâs so lovely. Youâre calling her babe. But now she says that she always thought you were gay.â
Welp! GOAT got friendzoned pretty bad, huh? But hey, this song is way too fun not to dance to. It almost makes the friendzone appear to be a happy place! If youâre one of those people that hates confrontation, this might be a nice way officially tell that person theyâve landed themselves a spot in the friendzone. Make it a joyous moment and celebrate it together. They honestly wonât know what hit them. Check out this earworm, the classic barbershop quartet in the link below, and download the song on Spotify and Apple iTunes Music.
