Just had the displeasure of listening to this year's winner of Eurovision, and hoy shit, it makes Tokyo Hotel sound pleasant in comparison:

Jesus, I forgot about Tokio Hotel.
90% of the stuff that top-40 radio plays I've found to utter shit, but I think this song in particular single-handedly represents everything I hate about mainstream pop/hip-hop music.
Kudos to you if you can watch this whole thing.

I was reading this article recently (I stumbled across it randomly on the internet) and it's about stupid music genres. One of them is "Splittercore", and this is the example provided:
I needed to listen to 2 seconds (yeah, only two seconds, but after the "recommended" start point at 2:45 minutes) to realise it's definitely the worst music (?) I've ever heard. It literally hurt my ears.
Is this real?
There's plenty of cities that sometimes has that one channel that would dedicate the entire day to Xmas tunes as you've mentioned, I'm sure it's a lazy excuse to not broadcast regularly if they can help it given the circumstances of a holiday. It didn't used to be this bad, but it certainly has evolved into the mess we see today.Before satellite radio was really a thing (2005-ish) I had to suffer through whatever I could get on the AM/FM deck in my truck. One year I had to drive across the country on Christmas day. All fucking day long Christmas songs. You could tell there was nobody in the studios they just set a Christmas playlist to shuffle and punched out. Now something about Christmas media causes all of the has-beens and never-wases to put out Christmas stuff because there are free spending holiday shoppers who buy all sorts of terrible shit. This meant I got treated to all kinds of godawful covers and original works by z-list musicians. It was mostly tolerable.
Then they played a B-52's cover of, I think, Blue Christmas. I was done. I spent the rest of the day in silence. Fuck music. Apparently the internet fucking hates it too because I have never been able to find it again to show people how bad it is. I want them to feel my pain.
Even worse when they start playing Christmas songs and it's not even Thanksgiving yet. The Christmas creep, as I call it, in my area is ridiculous.There's plenty of cities that sometimes has that one channel that would dedicate the entire day to Xmas tunes as you've mentioned, I'm sure it's a lazy excuse to not broadcast regularly if they can help it given the circumstances of a holiday.

"I don't want to lose you"? More like... I don't want to lose weight, mirite?Don't know if this has been already posted. Sorry to remind you of it either way.
Leonard Cohen's "Hallelujah" and John Lennon's "Imagine" and any of their legion of covers are both awful songs. If I ever push someone into oncoming traffic, it's because they're playing or covering one of those.
Let's throw Wonderwall and that Ed Sheeran Shape of You song onto the bonfire as well.
