    You know, I really like how you describe the sound of songs. The entire Drunk In Love bit, as well as 23 ("pitch-shifted dial tone being played underwater") and Wiggle ("and an odd sound at the very back of the mix that sounds like someone's blowing into a stifled kazoo") in particular stand out. XD

      It's the whiny tone and the overall topic of the song that makes it terrible. I find the "custom" of asking the dad for his daughters puke inducingly cringey. Yeah we (women) used to be property, we get it. No one would think reminding people of slavery is charming, but with the non personhood of women it's a different story. Weird.

    • @Davidwash3r3
      @Davidwash3r3 9 років тому +6

      ***** I found it to be an insulting happy song that has lazy lyrics of being happy that comes off as a WGWAG song on how the guy has absolutely no problems with his life (i.e. Jack Johnson), along with a bunch of indie rock cliches like unconventional instruments, use of "whoos" in the chorus, unpolished vocals that wouldn't make it pass auditions on American Idol (the lead singer's voice on that song BTW grates on my nerves with how flat it is), all mixed with the stink of commercial jingle polish. And it was overplayed as all hell! It's very reminiscent to Hot Chelle Ray's Tonight Tonight where it's a poppy happy cheery song that is obnoxious and annoying! Although not nearly as infuriating. I have heard some of American Author's other songs and they are far superior to Best Day of My Life, but it's one of those overplayed songs that I cannot stand! It's too polished and sugary for me. I can't stand it! I haven't given the album a listen and I don't really have any intentions because I usually get bad luck whenever newer alternative bands crossover to top 40 radio (I blew ten bucks on the Neighbourhood, need I say more), but hey...it's all opinions.
      P.S. I was somewhat joking with the comment I made before. I do feel like this song deserves to be on a worst of 2014 list, but if you don't hate it that's fine.

    I REALLY dig how seamlessly you transitioned from the audio sample of "Shake It Off" by Taylor Swift with your year-end review of that song.
    I remember when I first watched this list about a year ago, I was initially disappointed that "Anaconda" by Nicki Minaj was only at #8 because I was completely sucked into the hate bandwagon towards it. Over time, my perspective greatly evolved and became more balanced and realistic, so I realized that it's nowhere near as bad as it's made out to be, but still very much awful and no less deserving of being among the top 10.
    I also really dig that while the #1 can be seen as an unconventional choice, you still justified it very well in technical terms and it's no less deserving of being at the top.

    this year was filled with great hip hop albums. it kinda makes me sad to hear critics saying it was bad because they only judge things that will play on the radio. i also agree with the pop songs you chose, and the fact that they are extremely overplayed on the radio just makes them sound even worse..

    Very interesting list. I definitely agree with Wiggle being on there. That song is garbage, and it was played at my 8TH GRADE FORMAL! Honestly, the song is nasty.
    Animals is perhaps one of my least favorite songs this year. The song just screams douchebag and the music video just sounds appalling. I also hate Hangover by PSY. I couldn't make it through the whole song without plugging my ears. The auto tune! GAH!

    • @Thomasmemoryscentral

      It is okay to admit that an artist you like has bad music, proves you're able to say when they make a bad song and open to other opinions.
      Isn't the N word slang for Homie? Why not name the song My Homie?
      Dark Horse doesn't apply to someone successful like Katy Perry, she is not an underdog.

  • @TheInanimateFightCartoonIsland
    @TheInanimateFightCartoonIsland 9 років тому +9

    My Top 10 worst songs of this year (if anyone cares): warning: walls of text
    10) Jealous - Nick Jonas, production is not horrible but any merit that had is lost by the horribly selfish and badly written.
    9) Booty - J.Lo ft. Iggy Azalea, is basically a scream for attention. Not really hatable, is more just pathetic.
    8) This Is How We Roll - Florida Georgia Line, if Cruise killed real country then this song right here is trampling on its grave, the cherry on the top being when Florida or Georgia or whatever he's called starts rapping in the second verse. Only #8 because it at least has a slightly fun atmosphere to it.
    7) Wiggle - Jason Derulo & Snoop Dogg, the beat is nothing compared to the two other Jason Derulo hits this year, and that's really the only redeeming quality that JD has in his music at this point. And Snoop Dogg's rap is, aside from The Man, the most forgettable piece of audio that got radio play this year.
    6) Anaconda - Nicki Minaj, I know this is overly hated and that there ARE positive arguments for it, but even if I forgive the horrible sampling, the overly hypocritical and stupid lyricism, I cannot deal with the outro. WTF. Who decided to stretch it out like that. Nicki is literally taunting us with how bad she is near the end of the song.
    5) L.A. Love - Fergie, she sounds worse than she ever has before. The production is generic and painful to listen to (unsurprisingly enough, it's a mustard-on-the-beat-ho produced track), and the majority of the track is just Fergie calling out to cities in a last-resort attempt to stay relevant.
    4) Loyal - Chris Brown, the only thing salvageable about this song is the beat. The message of the song is possibly the worst that has come out in any hit song this year, and sure, maybe a few Lil Wayne lines are forgivable, but even the fact that this reached so high on Billboard when so many people honestly thought Chris Brown's shit was over is just disappointing.
    3) Adore You - Miley Cyrus, in the same way as Todd states on his worst of 2k13 list, Adore You offers nothing to the table. It's just elevator music with Cyrus's ear-piercing voice. Literally the only thing I don't hate about this is the way she sings 'you-ou-ou-ou-ooh' in the chorus.
    2) MMM Yeah - Austin Mahone & Pitbull - This is in a very similar vein to Jealous, with the selfish lyrics and all, but there are two reasons this is above Nick Jonas - 1) Pitbull - this is possibly one of the worst Pitbull verses to come out this year, and considering how ignorable and generally terrible Pitbull can be, that's saying a LOT. 2) Austin Mahone is just generally a more irritating vocalist to listen to than NJ...
    and... (drumroll)
    1) Selfie - The Chainsmokers - Eveyrone hated this, and obviously this song is supposed to be taken as a joke, but the song fails on that and as a proper EDM track. The drop is not pleasant to listen to in any way possible, the girl's monotonous chatting in the verses comes off as annoying instead of funny, there is just simply nothing about this song that I can bear... and that's my list... yay.
    Really enjoyed your list and in addition everything you put out this year, let's hope for another great year of reviews in 2015 :)

      I care, and appreciate the time you took to explain your choices (I post my favorite year-end list of songs on my facebook page, and most friends could care less). I agree with nearly all your choices, though I would replace "Jealous" with either "Lifestyle" by Rich Gang et al, "Spark the Fire" by Gwen Stefani or "Dark Horse" by Katy Perry.

    Insanely long comment incoming.
    In creating my own list, I decided to rate each song on the Top 100 on a 1-10 scale. I have provided said ratings for anyone who decides to read. And without further ado…
    #10 Beyoncé ft. Jay-Z: Drunk In Love - 3
    I want to find the team who did the backing production for this audio train wreck and make sure their ears work. It’s rare for me to hate a song entirely on sound, because usually I can forgive unpleasant music if the lyrics are decent. And that’s not to say the lyrics of this are even passable, but I just can’t get past how grating and thudding the music here is, not in the least helped by Bey’s insufferable edge in her voice and Jay-Z not trying AT ALL to sound like he cares. Were it not for a few even worse offenders higher up, this would be my vote for worst produced song of the year.
    #9 Katy Perry ft. Juicy J: Dark Horse - 3
    Sigh… I can’t even muster up outrage about Katy Perry anymore. This song is so lame and lacking in any kind of creative energy that even her phenomenally idiotic “This Is How We Do” is better because it’s at least a LITTLE fun. This is sludgy, gross, and boring as all get-out. Juicy J isn’t even worth mentioning. What a travesty.
    #8 Chris Brown ft. Lil Wayne & French Montana or Too $hort or Tyga: Loyal - 3
    Need I say more? Didn’t think so. Next.
    #7 Florida Georgia Line feat. Luke Bryan: This Is How We Roll - 3
    And so continues my never-ending battle against the tyrannical villains who were likely hand-picked by the country gods to destroy me and everything I find even remotely enjoyable about music. This time, however, they’ve brought a friend. Really, “This Is How We Roll” is the definitive bro-country song. You can listen to this and get everything that is absolutely insufferable about this sub-genre and be done with it. Uninspired backing track, laughably stupid hip-hop references, tired lyrics about the same old girls, booze, and trucks, and down-right terrible singing (ESPECIALLY from Luke Bryan). And yet, this isn’t even the worst bro-country had to throw at me this year. Wonder what was?
    #6 Brantley Gilbert: Bottoms Up - 2
    There’s being idiotic and being a prime example of what’s wrong with your genre. Then there’s doing the same while NOT EVEN TRYING. If I can give any credit at all to FGL and Luke, at least they sound like THEY’RE enjoying this, even if I don’t. In Brantley Gilbert’s “Bottoms Up” I get the feeling even BG, as they call him in the ridiculously cliché video, is uninterested in what he’s singing about. The terrible production doesn’t help either. If you’re going to make a partying, drinking, sex song, at least put SOME energy into it. And with that, hopefully we can finally see an end to this bro-countastrophe. Hopefully.
    #5 Rich Gang ft. Young Thug & Rich Homie Quan: Lifestyle - 2
    “Started From the Bottom” failed last year because I couldn’t even care one iota about Drake’s supposed hardships that he supposedly overcame because he doesn’t even talk about it. This song? Exact same thing except sung/rapped by losers I’ve never heard of and probably won’t ever again on top of absolutely atrocious vocals. Get over your egos. No one’s going to care who you are in half a year’s time.
    #4 MAGIC!: Rude - 2
    Immature, whiny, pathetic, insufferable, and weak. That’s all I have to say about this piece of cod-reggae tripe. I’m sure it had only the best intentions, but it was completely undercut by some of the worst writing and story-telling in a song I’ve heard in a while. Grow up.
    #3 Jason DeRulo feat. Snoop Dogg: Wiggle - 2
    Only #3?! Oh, don’t you worry. I’m saving my DeRulo outrage. This wasn’t the worst this guy gave us this year.
    #2 Jason Aldean: Burnin’ It Down - 1
    Whose bright idea was it to put twangy old Jason Aldean on a “smooth, sexy R&B” song? Because it didn’t work. At all. Now, I’m no Aldean fan myself, but even I was flabbergasted by how low he sunk with this. This is out-right terrible. The bleak, minimal beat and Aldean’s incredibly thick southern accent mix together like milk and crude oil. This whole thing was a mistake from the start and should have been scrapped immediately. And don’t even get me started on the lyrics. Not a shred of creativity to be found. That’s it, everybody. Bro-country was a failure. Let’s just all get together and *clears throat* burn it down.
    #1 Jason DeRulo: Trumpets - 1
    Jason DeRulo dominated this year. Sure, other artists like Taylor Swift, Meghan Trainor, and Sam Smith may have been more prominent on the charts, but not one of them felt as naggingly powerful as Jason here. And every single one of his hits this year was ATROCIOUS. The only thing that saved “Talk Dirty” from being on here was that it was at least a passable dance song if you ignored the two artists on it entirely. “Wiggle” is a joke and a seriously not funny one at that. “Trumpets” is quite possibly the worst sounding song I’ve ever heard. Between DeRulo’s piercing falsetto covered in endless layers of auto-tune, an incredibly out of place piano backing it, terrible sounding synth trumpets (Seriously dude? You write a song called Trumpets and can’t even use real trumpets? Really?), a chorus that almost sounds like something you’d hear in a pre-school music class, etc. That’s not even mentioning some of the most astoundingly idiotic lyrics I’ve ever heard. Yes, Jason. It is VERY weird that her ass reminds you of a Kanye West song, or that her bra reminds you of a Katy Perry song, or that her eyes remind you of a Coldplay song. Thank you for asking. I suppose the concept behind this could have been slightly interesting if not a little cliché, but the execution screwed it up for everyone. This song is so beyond stupid I almost don’t believe it’s real. Like, I feel like I just made it up. But it does exist. And BOY does it suck. Are we done with this guy yet, America? Please?

      7. It's just blah. I don't like it, but I don't hate either. Just... BLAH!
      6. Chris Brown's drones immediately swarm to this shit like flies.
      5. Jeremih sounds like Cartman on helium here.
      4. This song sucks! 'Nuff said.
      3. I think this song is truly, absolutely... okay. Yeah, DeRulo's sleaziness is dumb and "Go ham it like Ham Sandwich?" Really? But Snoop Dogg's verse is tolerable and if you replaced the recorder with a different instrument, the beat is easier to find interesting.

And Jeffrey Dahmer's name has been used in their rhymes, many times. In fact, Juicy J and Three Six were probably the first rappers to ever use it. So, perhaps we can tone down the frivolous accusations of plagiarism in the future?

      My Life Is An Errant Venture Did you fail English class? Because you're all over the place. And a lawsuit? You're fuckin' kidding me, right? Do you really care how someone says something? But honestly, Taylor's 'Shake It Off' was complete shit. Every song she makes has gotten so repetitive (hence why is shit). Go ahead and listen to every song of hers and report to me where she doesn't complain about her ex in some way? And making a song (that's mostly dedicated to the critics... and her ex) about not caring means she actually cares.
      Now, time to dissect the fuck you were trying to type.
      "I love shake it off but then I am an unashamed taylor swift fan."
      - What's with the large ass spaces in-between a WORD and BUT? I am assuming you typed this comment on a phone, which can explain why you put UNASHAMED instead of ASHAMED, right? I hope.
      "But you are right something bad sucks."
      - No me digas...
      "Were you doing the disgusted "next" line before that guy on snl or did you start doing it after words..."
      - I'm sure "the guy on SNL" started doing it way before him. And you spell "after words" as 'afterwards'. (Come on, who can fuck that up when you have a spell checker on your fuckin' phone. )
      "...cause either way one of you has a law suit on your hands."
      - A lawsuit... seriously? Yeah, someone is going to sue someone for "stealing" a way to say a word. If you didn't mean it that way, then what the fuck do you mean?! Are you going to sue a someone for saying a word a certain way? You're a dumbass if you believe you're going to win that.
      But, then again, people have sued people for stupid things and won them. So, I do not wish you luck. I mean, the judge will certainly laugh in your face, but you never know.

Shake it off was not about her ex so what is your point there? The law suit comment was kind of a joke but copying someones schtic is kind of tacky.

      And realizing that it was supposed to be taken as joke, I am sorry for saying that you are dumbass. But, y'know, there are a shit ton of idiots on the internet, which fueled my assumption that you were really going to sue him for saying a word a certain way.

    9. "Dark Horse" by Katy Perry ft. Juicy J
    8. "Rude" by MAGIC!
    7. "Don't Tell Em" by Jeremih ft. YG
    6. "Anaconda" by Nicki Minaj
    5. "Loyal" by Chris Brown ft. Lil Wayne & Tyga/Too $hort/French Montana
    4. "Bottoms Up" by Brantley Gilbert
    3. "23" by Mike WiLL Made-It ft. Miley Cyrus, Wiz Khalifa & Juicy J
    2. "Lifestyle" by Rich Gang ft. Rich Homie Quan & Young Thug
    1. "Wiggle" by Jason DeRulo ft. Snoop Dogg
    Wow, I got nine of the choices correct and only ONE of them was in the correct position.

    • @bobbybobertson3557
      @bobbybobertson3557 9 років тому

      A few things I disagreed with, though. First of all, I didn't think "Shake It Off" was really meant to be a metaphorical middle finger to the haters. With the lack of any sort of insult towards the haters, I felt it was an acknowledgement of the haters existing, but not really minding what they have to say. Also, I liked the production. I have no idea why they let that bridge pass, though, as it was one of the worst musical ideas of the year.
      Also, I felt the atmosphere created on "Burnin' It Down" from the softer, more electronic production on the guitars and percussion worked really well.
      I actually liked "Love Never Felt So Good" a lot, but the background of it makes it harder for me to really enjoy it.
      I actually love "Rude" musically, as I felt the brass section at the end of each bar in the hook worked really well for the song, along with how each bar in the verses ends with a different guitar lick. Lyrically, I feel the "rudeness" was talking about the how the father worded his refusal, in a somewhat sarcastic outburst, but it is still immature. "La La La" is also immature, but I felt it being paired with Sam Smith's more soulful delivery worked great in an ironic sense. The sample is annoying as all hell though. I actually liked the production on "Loyal", and Lil Wayne's verse, but Chris Brown sunk it for me single-handedly. Though on Too $hort's version, he made it even worse. Young Thug had a few good lines on "Lifestyle", with some decent creative wordplay between mountains, volcanoes, and puffing on clouds, but it was otherwise a complete trainwreck. Here's my list;
      10. "Bottoms Up" by Brantley Gilbert
      9. "2 On" by Tinashe ft. Schoolboy Q
      8. "Hot Boy" by Bobby Shmurda
      7. "This Is How We Roll" by Florida Georgia Line ft. Luke Bryan
      6. "Na Na" by Trey Songz
