rolling fuck this shit worst songs of 2015 thread

"Fight Song" is eye-rollingly derivative.

oh god my ears

so bad

just flagged the three of you

First part sounds derivative of all the artists who are derivative of her older work, second section sounds like Marissa Marchant.

you made it to the second section?

I wonder if the super-litigious Gaye estate will sue that Puth guy, even though I think it's an extreme longshot.

the writer of "marvin gaye" is credited on "countdown"!

"Marvin Gaye" #1 in New Zealand only... WE'RE SORRY PLANET EARTH. It's a climate thing, I think. I'm not really from here.

This year's crop of crap does seem to have a lot more name-dropping than usual – mentioning obvious Cool People from the Past. Maybe it's just nostalgia obscuring how shameless it always used to be. I'm also pretty sure Biggie never sang with Nirvana. Speaking of which,

now that the song is sabotaging its chances for radio airplay I find it charming

Does Halsey's line, "high on legal marijuana", get censored or not? I suppose, because it's legal marijuana, maybe the radio wouldn't bother. It'd be like bleeping out "high on ritalin". Pretty smart songwriting really! (Um, no.) I can so imagine that song being played by the support act at an Imagine Dragons concert. It's, like, not unexpected at all.

I found Death to the Strange's 'Sign On' (i.e. welfare) was the most horrible song in this thread, it really comes across as poor-bashing. Maybe unintended (they seem inept in general). But the song is two years old. Ineligible/Too shitty/Not shitty enough?

(for the end-of-2015 poll, I mean)

it's from 2012.

i have not heard halsey's song on the radio censored or uncensored and i hope it remains that way

when the citizens of the future unearth the 2015 time capsule this is what they're gonna find

that is some bad autotuning

i know complaining about autotune is older than any of these singers but that is just exceptionally bad

I don't know what Birdcloud's deal it. I guess they're a "comedy" duo, but whatever this is...just, NO.

deal is

That has about 300 views, doesn't quite merit mention imo.

It's no "I wanna dance I wanna dance I wanna dance with a black woman". Pretty bad tho.

I'd presumed everything itt must have gone to Billboard #1 from all the YT views and hatewatching. Glad to be wrong! (So far.)

woof at "New Americana"

we are the new americana
high on legal marijuana
raised on biggie and nirvana
we are the new americana

^ so much blackface in this video

that's among the very worst things i've heard this year
the video is amazingly amazingly bad for something that clearly took so much time
i'm ashamed that i knew more or less everyone of the 300 meme references, real "what am i doing with my life" head check moment

Maybe the ultimate shittiest rhyme of girl and girls.

Also winner of most punchable face

dunno if it approaches some of the no-name shit on this thread, but Fallout Boy "Centuries" is easily the shrillest, most irritating thing I actually hear out on a regular basis, usually while I'm waiting in line at the corner store. Loud, thin and crackley-sounding, and I guess it's some kind of commentary on teenage suicide pacts or something and it's just GAH. I had the hook looping through my head in my dreams last night and I awoke with an ugly headache. Also the Suzanne Vega sample is just ... there.

Thank you Singles Jukebox https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pKQG1EJ5Lhs

... i like centuries...

feel like that "strip no more" is somewhere upthread

i like Fall Out Boy but agree that Centuries is absolutely grating

I posted it upthread, for the record I did not suggest it, I think I even voted no on it to avoid the inevitable

can i nominate every single song spotify ads throw up

Strip no more was posted earlier, i suggested "mama said" was a far worse lukas graham single

"Mama Said" is merely forgettable.

today i learned that the semi precious weapons dude has a credit on 'centuries'

New Mackelmore

lol that actually seemed promising until he started rapping

goddamn he is garbage

I heard that Lukas Graham song on TSJ and it's without doubt one of the worst singles of the past 10 years. It's truly indefensible.

It's so bad they took it off youtube which is actually good because I wanted to hear it one more time to check if there was anything redeeming about it.

bleeeeeeuch

robbie williams has better flow than that dickbag

Hell, ROBIN Williams does too and he's been dead for a year.

is half-assed aping of Lil Wayne a new thing for him? I haven't kept up.

lol that macklemore song is an unbelievable mess but i sorta....... like everything about it that's not macklemore

i'll show myself out

I feel the same way

That finally made me actually force myself to listen to it and I kinda agree, I really want a Macklemore-free edit. You could easily get 3-4 mins outta that.

I like the beat and the group rap sections

canadian artists trying very hard to replicate the sound from "the hampster dance" and the rednex version of "cotton eyed joe"

Either the song is called "Baby Dic" & the artist is Death Metal Dizzle or the song is "Death Metal Dizzle" and the artist is Baby Dic, either way ummmm man what a horrifying new rap metal hybrid
