Rolling Worst Music of 2016 - Making That Meghan Trainor Money

The rapper is my favorite, oh my god.

drake not complex

That's no worse than any other post-Deftones / 311 / Papa Roach garbage I've heard. I'm just shocked this "sound" is still a thing

I try not to get angry or depressed about easily-avoided bad music but this made me want to kill people for some reason

when I try to play that last video I get an error message. what was it?

A new Lightning Rod signing named Paul Cauthen. Just awful. I'll try it again:

OK album cover, terrible hat.

is his gospel.... amish?

Ha! His "gospel" sounds more like an SNL parody of The Boss

I was just about to say 'eh, not especially bad' when suddenly some guy who murders hitch-hikers in his pick-up truck arrived at 1.30. What is he doing here, and why is anyone allowing it to happen? The next two are also bad.

It is very bad

yeah but.. uh.. they SMOKE

I was just about to say 'eh, not especially bad' when suddenly some guy who murders hitch-hikers in his pick-up truck arrived at 1.30.

according to the not especially bad guy, the serial killers name is "dirty farms"

sorry, just checked the youtube description, it's "Drrty Pharms"

of course

heh, i know those guys by proxy.

I've had nearly two decades now to confirm that Robbie Williams is something that I'll just never get, but c'mon, this is just shit...

An acknowledgement that his only remaining fans are in Eastern European backwaters, maybe?

Wait till you read the Singles Jukebox reviews this week. We're lucky it won't be a hit here

Sad to see such a terribly out of touch single from Robbie

it is bad, yes

#1 in Belgium apparently. #68 in the UK.

It's one of these ones that raises an idea that you can imagine working really well (in this case combining Montagues and Capulets with a great big stomping beat) then fucks it up so completely that you have to wonder whether it's just an idea that can't work.

a workmate of mine who adores Robbie - as in, has multiple tattoos of him - couldn't even bring herself to say more than "it's a grower."

Just going to leave this here

The EastEnders theme, um... They would've done Coronation Street, but it's been exclusively licensed by Robbie Williams for a sample on his next single.

ILM's Rolling Worst Songs 2016 Spotify Playlist

it's funny how instantly outdated something like, say, the revamped ghostbusters theme or even lukas graham sounds only a few months later

also, i ran into this while cleaning up the hip hop thread and hoo boy
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WXfGTBVe_Kc

good grief!

So no one has commented on here about how atrocious the number 1 song in the country, "Closer" by the Chainsmokers is? Okaaayyyyy

nah that's kind of a jam

maybe if there was a Rolling Worst People

it's a bad song

so is their other one, the one with the girl who sounds like she's about to sneeze

"Closer" isn't awful, but it isn't great either - I'm just baffled by how a song so hookless has been so successful

that's just the magic of the music industry at work

It's better than "#SELFIE", that's for sure.

Debuted at #32 this week. 34 million views and counting. From their Christmas album. This is a Christmas song now. Merry Christmas!

What do you call it when five people do a melisma at the same time?

lol I thought that was going to be from Handel's Messiah and said to myself "Yeah, that's kind of Christmasy by its very nature."

that Pentatonix video makes me want to die.

it also led me to this cover of Jolene (presented by Cracker Barrel), where you can literally hear within 1 second the difference between Dolly's incredible voice and the bland whimpering of five mayonnaise human cue balls: https://youtu.be/oYCoyUxY2HY

welp, congrats thread: you killed Leonard Cohen

And now I'm looking through today's releases and noticed that the poor man's Nickelback, Theory of Dead Man, have just released a cover of Hallelujah as well.

As if 2016 didn't suck enough already, we can expect an even greater flood of "Hallelujah" covers now.

Listening to the playlist for the first time. Feel like it really got on top of me last year when poll time rolled around.

My worst album so far is Zonkey, by Umphrey's McGee. It's a mash-up album, so at least it's timely.
