rolling fuck this shit worst songs of 2015 thread

Aww, these kids know a few Marvin Gaye songs!

OH NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO

"Healing" is my favorite Marvin Gaye song.

oh dear god

I've got a bad feeling about this.

I've got a joke a really want to make but it would be in the poorest of taste.

lyric video plot seems to be there are multiple promotional photos of meghan trainor and two total of charlie puth

btw: lol @ "charlie puth"

nice callback to "Mercy Mercy Please"

BURN IT ALL

Apparently this person is Ellen DeGeneres's fault. So fuck her too.

"karma sutra"

WHY AM I LISTENING TO THIS

Somehow, the Death Team song is still the worst.

psssst we are soliciting worst songs EVAR!!!11!!one!! for emp on the panel I am on, feel like denizens of this thread may have some

that sounds like it deserves its own campaigning thread

see the emp thread

"acoustic cover of pop banger" is a long-standing pox but this is next-level hideousness

about as dirty as mould in a student bedsit

the redman bit that you knew was coming :((((((((((

This twerp may be my very least favourite thing in music right now.

ewww i am not brave enough to click the play button

a good time to remember that "thinking out loud" is the worst radio hit ever

yeah :(

I didn't hate All About That Bass, but from that to Future Husband to that Marvin Gaye thing is really some death spiral.

I thought ironic indie covers of pop songs were the worst things ever, but the earnest ones are possibly worse on the whole

"Am I made of paper? / Because I tear so easily"

I had to look up who those two people are.

Can we agree that this dude is the absolute worst lyricist of the last fifteen years? Never forget: "Now that she's back from that soul vacation / Tracing her way through the constellation, hey / She checks out Mozart while she does Tae-Bo / Reminds me that there's room to grow, hey"

lol i like that song a lot but i suppose it helps that i was somehow able to hear it w/o rly noticing the lyrics much/at all (it took me a minute to recognize in yr post what they were from)

my long tradition of defending Train singles does not stop here

Awwwww, that Death Team video is shot at O'Connor Bowl in Toronto! (the 5-pin bowling being a dead giveaway that they are getting the American 'hood vibe all wrong).

they're getting pretty much every vibe wrong imo

christ even the spiderman 2 song?

this is pretty wtf

This wants so desperately to be some mutant combo of The Weeknd, Miley's "We Can't Stop" and Kitty (Pryde), but it just sounds so ridiculously strained and awkward.

I kind of like that

(from the description I was expecting "The Weekend" to load)

I don't specifically like it, but it might be the least objectionable nickleback song I've ever heard.

just poking my head in this thread to say that I actually kinda like fucking bitches in the hood

oh christ did the xp make me "like" nickelback, I regret it all

(I meant the roslyn moore, reminds me of my favorite katy rose/shut up stella tracks)

The vocals in the Roslyn Moore track don't seem to be off-key in certain parts. It's through the whole thing! She's either sharp or flat vs. the beat, but just a little, and that's enough to drive me insane.

That Nickelback is indefensible solely for the lyric "everybody wants to be the sister's mister ,Coca-Cola rollercoaster".

I don't understand "Fucking Bitches in the Hood" and that's a nightmarishly awful name for a song.

oh wait it's just an awful Uffie song

my long tradition of defending Train singles does not stop here

christ even the spiderman 2 song?

i didn't mean ALL of them. that one is kind of entertaining just to hear them try to do brooding hard rock, but not one of my favorites.

"Fucking Bitches" = most teenaged girls are awful again. It's cyclical.

think death team are in their thirties though.

yeah, i was surprised by how old they look in the video, when i heard the song i was like 'well, this is pretty bad, but these have to be some clueless teens'

I meant the teenaged girls who are consuming, not creating, that awful, awful song.

I'd been hearing Hozier's "Take Me to Church" for a long time until I found out who did it--I just thought of it as the Elton-John-soundalike. I don't hate the first half-minute or so.

"Fucking Bitches in the Hood" is kinda harmless relatively speaking - like "Mouldy Old Dough" subbing in as this year's novelty hipster shareable (Cameltoe, Pizza Hut Taco Bell)... at least it's not shrill, loud and in your face. Definitely too much chorus to too little verse but w/e. Compared to "Marvin Gaye" it's fucking Marvin Gaye.

"In The Burbs" mainly suffering from identity confusion and production issues - slide BPM up for Miley, slide down for Lorde, but doesn't have the oomph for either. Super dinky sounding. At some point in time this coulda been an okay indie track but it got waylaid somewhere.

The parts of their bodies that make them horny.
