What's the worst song currently "gracing" the airwaves?
I'm gonna go with "My Humps" by the Black Eyed Peas. I mean, seriously :wtf:

(and, I'm not doing a poll because no one ever picks my selections :P)

1. Hollaback Girl. I hate that fucking song with the intensity of 1000 suns.
And amazingly, the song gets WORSE if accompanied by the video.

13. Yes
I should have put Gwen Stefani as my top pick on the "millions love but you hate" thread. Maybe I'm just too in denial that millions actually "love" her!

16. Does that even qualify as a song?
It's mostly just yelling that's (sort of) in cadence with a drum beat. I've heard Indian war chants that were more musically inclined.

20. I like that song.
It is my cell phone ringer, courtesy of the teenager.

2. Black Eyed Peas new album is currently disappointing...
...plus Fergie looks like she's gotten a little too happy with the botox treatments

4. Ew. ew. ew. Why did you make me read that?
And, I think you might be right, although anything by REO Speedwagon has to be in the top ten :D


(btw, next Friday? Isn't that ten for you?)

6. That song by the Pussy Cat Dolls annoys the hell out of me but...
...it's so fricking catchy that I can't help but listen to it. It's kinda like the accident along the side of the road that you shouldn't slow down and look at but you do because you're hoping to see bloody bodies or something

11. What radio station do you listen to? I mostly listen to Q102.
But, I don't know if I have heard that song. :(

7. James Blunt. "You're Beautiful."
Even by the standards of love songs, this one is dire. It's so lame it's offensive.

That new one by the Stones is pretty diabolical too.

8. I agree
My Humps is a horrible song.

I'm also going to nominate Pimpin' All Over the World by Ludacris (whom I normally like) and anything by Mariah Carey (she's SO 1992).

10. I don't like that Kanye West song
The background track is overpowering, but I suspect that's intentional because he's not saying anything worth listening to in the first place - and this is why his video is nothing but bootyshakin and ass.

21. I can honestly say that I am not familiar with Green Day.
Apparently, I'm not missing out. :)

24. I'm going to say an entire channel: 95.9 KFSH
No offense to the Christians on here, but... who listens to this station? It's all the bland, boring, generic soft rock crap normally reserved for the bland, boring, generic soft rock station KOST 103.5 (Los Angeles), but with Christian themes. And this station is taking over KOST in So Cal. At least KOST, I could tune out. This is crap.
