“Worst song ever” discourse

Anonymous wrote:Curious to know everyone’s thoughts on this! Recently this Tweet (Xeet? What are they called now …) went viral where a guy dug up an old Tiny Desk clip of a “2010s stomp clap hey folk revival” song called Home, by Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeroes, and called it the worst song ever made.



Now I mean I don’t think it’s great and I wouldn’t seek out this song to listen to. It’s annoying, even the studio version is annoying, this performance is particularly annoying. I associate the song now with TV commercials and stuff. But I don’t think you can say it’s in the conversation for “worst song ever made” when we have stuff like MmmBop, James Blunt’s “You’re Beautiful,” most of the songs that the American Idol winners released after they won - remember Sorry 2004 by Ruben Studdard??? What about everything that’s ever come out of Megan Trainor’s mouth? Dance Monkey??

What are your thoughts on the worst song ever made?


All of this is completely subjective. I personally love the song you posted. I also love Dance Monkey.

Ha! I like both those songs. Really, I love Tubthumping.

I really hate the song "Breakfast at Tiffany's"
I think it sounds terrible and has 0 artistry


The answer was here, here in post four, yet there’s pages and pages of DCUM posters babbling about songs that they just don’t like. It’s supposed to be the worst song ever. The answer is right here.

Firework. By Katy Perry.
Starts with "did you ever feel like a plastic bag'? I rest my case.

Agree about Chicago, but their earlier stuff was quite good.

Wouldn’t this all depend on your generation? One person’s yacht/soft rock is another person’s cringe?. Chicago,Fogelberg,Bread,Loggins - bring me back to every HS party playing these albums on the record player.

Even Leo Thayer’s signature song

So just post which song makes you hate rage. No need to pontificate or elaborate or (most important) tell us you actually like a song here. We don't care.
