rolling fuck this shit worst songs of 2015 thread

i added the "Ralph's Rolling in the Dub" Remix of Aretha's cover to the Worst Songs Spotify list; it's not on youtube but wow
i mean wow

sam hunt faring pretty well relative everything else itt

I don't hate that Olly Murs song.

AronChupa and Andy Grammar, on the other hand? My god.

Love that AronChupa song. Most of my attention re: pop singles these days is "ooh that's a nice reverb plugin!" Anyway, nice plugins, AronChupa!

that last one is by the people who are anti-big tobacco propagandists? what?

Can't speak to the reverb plugin, but wtf even IS that AronChupa thing, and who is the target market for kiddie cartoon march music with gratuitous sophomoric profanity?

"has been a hit throughout Europe, Australia and New Zealand", so everyone I guess? I don't know why it'd be considered "bad" by anybody, let alone "worst", its stoopid fake La Vie Boheme vibe is fun and the EDM-via-Swedish-pop choruses are fun and the fact that she Shoobys the third verse is also fun.

fuck fun

we've established that I hate fun

that death team song is starting to warp itself and sound actually good though so maybe I don't

p rare that landfill indie does anything to me aside from go in one ear and out the other but I truly cannot believe how bad this band are

Every generation gets the Candlebox it deserves.

i don't mind this

I can't really hear anything to hate in Olly or Darlia

idk, I thought left swipe that was OK. Is it all vine people? How did Jerry Purpdrank miss the cut?

Darlia just sounds like a demo for a company that makes inexpensive digital effects for home recording and instruments -- "you'll sound awesome just like the big boys!"

honestly

D:

gaye estate should be fighting the real enemy imo

First track itt to really bring the pain imo, watched the whole thing out of respect for its incredible tastelessness

Aww, these kids know a few Marvin Gaye songs!

OH NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO

"Healing" is my favorite Marvin Gaye song.

oh dear god

I've got a bad feeling about this.

I've got a joke a really want to make but it would be in the poorest of taste.

lyric video plot seems to be there are multiple promotional photos of meghan trainor and two total of charlie puth

btw: lol @ "charlie puth"

nice callback to "Mercy Mercy Please"

BURN IT ALL

Apparently this person is Ellen DeGeneres's fault. So fuck her too.

"karma sutra"

WHY AM I LISTENING TO THIS

Somehow, the Death Team song is still the worst.

psssst we are soliciting worst songs EVAR!!!11!!one!! for emp on the panel I am on, feel like denizens of this thread may have some

that sounds like it deserves its own campaigning thread

see the emp thread

"acoustic cover of pop banger" is a long-standing pox but this is next-level hideousness

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pf_ldxntwJg

about as dirty as mould in a student bedsit

the redman bit that you knew was coming :((((((((((

This twerp may be my very least favourite thing in music right now.

ewww i am not brave enough to click the play button

a good time to remember that "thinking out loud" is the worst radio hit ever

yeah :(

I didn't hate All About That Bass, but from that to Future Husband to that Marvin Gaye thing is really some death spiral.

I thought ironic indie covers of pop songs were the worst things ever, but the earnest ones are possibly worse on the whole

"Am I made of paper? / Because I tear so easily"

I had to look up who those two people are.

Can we agree that this dude is the absolute worst lyricist of the last fifteen years? Never forget: "Now that she's back from that soul vacation / Tracing her way through the constellation, hey / She checks out Mozart while she does Tae-Bo / Reminds me that there's room to grow, hey"

lol i like that song a lot but i suppose it helps that i was somehow able to hear it w/o rly noticing the lyrics much/at all (it took me a minute to recognize in yr post what they were from)

It was on my ballot.

for some reason I find the cynicism of this Danish track very offensive, even though it is a bit of a jam

'Its the most wonderful time of the year'

Im not sure where to put this one as its obviously a song from another time, but here it is being played in Asda and in other shops. I like christmas a lot, there are fewer cars on the street, fewer people around, generally a relatively peaceful time of year, but this thing playing while you are in Asda which is packed with people buying bags of crisps that are bigger than their children is a belligerent act. I think the worst part of it is with most of the other garbage its time in the sun is done almost as soon as its replaced with something else, but this over-entitled moron smoking a cigar in your living room is never going to leave

what was that one hysterically bad song about (iirc) Tinder dates, that got taken down within hours of the internet discovering it? I wanna vote for that based solely on memories of the one time I watched it

Whoa. Simply Red are back baby.

Still, even Sam isn't phoning it in as much as NME is

I'm wrapping this playlist for the year. It has been updated with a few new adds (Kevon Carter, Bloc Party, Lukas Graham, Chris Homes, Brothers NYC) and includes every track mentioned on thread that is available via Spotify's US catalogue as of EOY 2015. If I missed something or if a track comes available sometime in the future, bump here to let me know and I'll add.

huh this is sort of right up my alley musically. not sure what it's doing lyrically

ok i've listened to two songs and these guys are great imo

My gripe was with the clunky lyrics and the singer's vocals.

The parts of their bodies that make them horny.
