The Worst Songs of 2012

[Sora]

Show me one good song that has been in the Billboard top ten in the past three years.

Sorry I have no idea what you like so I can't. I assume you don't like pop, country, or rap but you shouldn't hate on people who do. I mean seriously since when is it wrong to like pop, country, or rap. Obviously your a total

but you don't have to hate on mainstream.

 

[Mino]

No, that's my way of saying that the best and worst songs is completely subjective.

Well.

Yeah.

Uhhh by definition a hipster is someone who follows the "latest" trends, so no..he's not?

So you've put words in my mouth and accused me of being a hipster. I'm going to assume by that you mean that I dislike certain music only because it reinforces my own ego or otherwise makes me feel superior or interesting. I won't even begin to address that unjustifiable bull****, so I'll just ask this: do you actually intend to submit an actual argument or will you continue to resort to tired, tumblr-quality nonsense accusations? Because you could save me a lot of annoyance if you tell me now.

Jesus people. I wasn't being totally serious.

If i were you, Replace Stupid hoe with "Diamonds" and Beez in the Trap with "It's Thanksgiving"

How could they diss my hating theme against those stupid hoes that created internet memes? i would pie them any day.

What?

What?

My sentiment exactly.

Honestly though, I'm either more used to pop music or something, but I would probably rather listen to Nicki Minaj over the Beatles or Michael Jackson.

Granted, Nicki takes a backseat to Queen and the Killers but, still.

Opinions are fine and all, but to prefer trash like Nicki Minaj over those with actual talent like Michael Jackson or the Beatels… I just don't know what to say.

 

[Brad]

I think Gangnam Style was the worst.

There must be something wrong with my eyes because it looks like you typed that you'd rather listen to Nicki Make-My-Ears-Bleed Minaj than The Beatles.

Or maybe there's something wrong with your ears.

Not trying to be rude, but... I just... I just don't understand.

 

[AmenFashion]

I agree that 'Birthday Cake' shouldn't have featured Chris Brown. I hate that they do music together... I cannot stand that man.
But I mean, the song is catchy as hell. I can't think of a single person who wasn't on the dance floor when that song came on in a club throughout Summer. It's a mindless song, but I can't not love it. It's fun!

And people, don't even waste your time trying to convince people that they're wrong for liking mainstream over whatever you're saying is "real music". Music means something different to each of us. If Nicki Minaj makes someone happy to listen to, why the hell not listen to her?

 

[Bacon Boy]

I think Gangnam Style was the worst.

Brad, you're probably my new favorite person. That "song" is so freakin obnoxious... :c

Personal preference. I tried to listen to them, but I never really got into them like everybody else does.

I think Gangnam Style was the worst.

Surprisingly for me, I dislike the song, but it's not the worst. It's catchy and annoying at the same time, but I liked the beat.

The songs on the list and general modern pop music are engineered to be catchy. People have figured out the formula to make a popular song; all it needs to have is a repetitive chorus, recycled beats, and a simple four chord structure. Nearly every pop song follows this basic structure, it's basically catchy by definition (See The Axis of Awesome: 4 Chords). However, catchy doesn't equal a good song. In fact, most of modern pop music is absolute garbage, as it takes no talent to write.
In response to Brad, Gangnam Style is just the modern pop formula in a different language. I enjoyed it because it was catchy, but I can't say it was a particularly good piece of music.

 

[Christian]

What's wrong with Gangnam Style?

 

[SockHead]

Brad is right everyone. Gangam Style is just terrible.

I normally don't mind but Glee covers but their Gangnam Style cover makes me want to cry. It's hysterically bad.
