Instant regret thread;
soon to be a bracket of
many such regrets.

It's damn near impossible to find 'bad' songs in the 1960s. But the 1970s? Check! 1980s? GOD YES. 1990s? Holy crap, need you ask? 2000s? It just gets worse the closer to the current day you get. :(

more than I should have.  :D

Some of these songs, banning them from the universe is not far enough away.

The B-52s Love shack...... My cats whinny meows sound better than this "song". Makes me want to vomit even just thinking about how bad this travesty of a "song" sounds!   #:-)

Love shack reminded me think of another that makes me want to start slamming people's heads through walls.  Groove is in the Heart by Dee-Lite.  And now it's stuck in my head.  This sucks...

If most of the flavorless overproduced nu/alt-metal of the 90's and double-naughts sounds the same to me can I claim it's really all one long art-drone and retconn it away?

Yer going to have to narrow this down a bit.. there whole styles of music that could be eliminated from the universe and we'd be better off.... gangsta rap for starters..... :P
Any Boy band, any bubble gum group, any Yoko Ono crap, etc you get the idea.

It would be more interesting to see what people don't like in areas of music that we actually like. For instance I'm also a fan of PotUS, but really can't stand NiN...

I worked on a document for a few hours last night, dedicating one page to each year from 1960 to 2017. There is no lack of sources for lists out there for the 'worst' songs of particular years or decades. The 60s is somewhat more difficult to judge but there's a few very, very annoying songs I could call out (and that others apparently have issues with). Though, that's not entirely fair, to judge a genre of music using 20/20 vision from the current day.

But it's fun anyway, yeah? ;)

Some years, I'm going to have to cull my list to get it to 16. Others, I'm going to struggle to populate it with 16. I might catch sh*t from y'all for putting some mainstream songs from a year in 1960 on a list ("What? I loved that song, you suck"), but then again I expect to catch sh*t like MD did for his lists, so. :)

Plus I have a few aces up my sleeves, thanks to some of your suggestions. MUWAHAHAHAHA.  O:-)

I figure it's best to not inquire about this ditty.
