The worst, most painful music comes from the bands you really like. When a band betrays your love and admiration, it’s a wound that doesn’t heal easily. For me, there are a number of bands that have turned on me. When I wasn’t looking Rush released a song that contained a rap, U2 released the monstrosity called “Lemon” and most recently, The Killers gave up trying to write good songs and filled “I Can’t Stay” more production than the pan can handle.
But the songs here and in my video blog aren’t the only ones out there. The five I listed in the video above are simple the ones that came immediately to my head when I began to think about terrible songs.
If you have a list of songs that you consider to be terrible, type them up and respond to this column.
Terrible songs shouldn’t go unpunished. The band’s responsible need to be called out so let’s do it. Let’s tell Rush, U2, The Killers, Counting Crows and Mike Doughty to knock it off and get back to making good songs.
Comment
I’d like to add one to my own list.
Weezer – “Hash Pipe”
