What's the worst song you've ever heard?

The Germs are cool, but what the fuck is this?

And don't give me the PUUUNK ROOOOOOOOCK excuse, I'd rather listen to Sum41 (which is better than the Germs anyway).

Sounds like a recording of a practice session. The Happy Mondays did the same thing with Yahoo (and that was pretty good!)

 
There's way too much bro-country out there, so how about we start with this one?


Annoying synth beeps, that stupid Microsoft Sam voice, his smug snarly voice that isn't even trying to sing, and the line "get your little fine ass on the step".

Also, he's a total douche on Twitter. I've seen him tweet things like "ur fuckin retarded" to people who tweet that they don't like his music. I thought country guys were supposed to be nice?

And yes, this dickwaffle was one of the five writers on Florida Georgia Line's "Cruise".

Okay, here's a real turd.

Selfish Cunt, "Britain is Shit."


Everything about it just screams pretentious hipster pseud. And this was in 2004 before hipsters were really a thing. It's no coincidence that the fictitious hipster song "Terrorists Are Gay" in Nathan Barley sounded just like this. The Guardian, hilariously, put Selfish Cunt in one of their top 40 most important bands in Britain that year.

Towards the late nineties in good old England, the dreaded novelty single made a comeback. With a vengeance. It provided an embarrassment of riches to the dedicated connoisseur of musical turds, and choosing the worst of a bad bunch remains difficult, but the sheer ubiquity of this shit...
...made me want to track down everyone responsible for this atrocity and slaughter them in their sleep.

Jimmy Fallon played this on his "Do Not Play" segment one time. It's just catchy enough to be torturous.

This has to be hands down the worst song I have ever heard in my life. I could pick many songs from the 2000's to now, but I feel this one is especially bad.

 

Not the worst from a purely technical standpoint, but I absolutely hate this song with a deep passion, from the very first note. The clapping really sets me off. I do like the lyrics in a sense though, it's pretty funny.


This may actually be the worst i've heard.

Can an entire album count?

Because American Smoothie - the nadir of the American musical theater - counts.


A Google search says it's only been produced twice. I attended one of those productions, and if there's any justice, it will never be performed again.

In short, it's like if those kids who thought Monty Python's sole contribution to comedy was the non sequitur decided to musicalize Nietzsche's remarks about how if one stared into the abyss, the abyss would stare back.

This is probably the most repetitive and irritating song I've ever listened to.

It's kind of fascinating how Rihanna can swing between being backed with absolute masters of their art like Nuno Bettencourt and producing... well, this.

Eh, it's as generic a country song as they come and the lyrics are hokey as all hell, but at least the guitar intro is kinda neat. There's nothing to keep me listening to this song after it, but still.

Who's ready for some uninspired, repetitive power chords, lyrics devoid of all wit and a pair of incredibly irritating voices?
 
Birthday Cake was originally a one-minute interlude that somehow became popular enough to be extended.
 
The competition is insane, but the worst Christmas Song Ever has to be Madonna's "Santa Baby" -- shower her with expensive gifts and this old hag will let you "go down her chimney".

My problem with "Santa Baby" is that EVERY SINGLE ARTIST who sings it tries to do that "New York City girl from the 30s" accent, and none of them can ever pull it off.
