    May the Worst song win :D


  • Registered Users Posts: 20,341 ✭✭✭✭Rikand


    First song to reach 5 votes advances

    No need for a reason at this point, though people are always welcome to give theirs :D


    Reminder :: You are voting for the worst song in each one of these matches



    Preliminary Round/Match 1

    Velvet Underground - Rock and Roll

    Vs

    Richie Kavanagh - Aon Focal Eile


    "Hi Rikand. Rock and Roll by the Velvet Underground is a song performed by a band that couldn't play, fronted by a man who couldn't sing for people who didnt care. The production sucks. The lyrics are awful. These poseurs were boosted by the same crowd that boosted Andy Warhol's work on the same basis- talent is overrated, get attention by utilising your societal connections and some mugs somewhere will buy the product. It is the worst song of all time in conception, formation, execution, recording and in the fact that along with the rest of their work it found an audience to fawn over it. The world is a worse place for it having come into existence and gets a little worse any time it is played. Im angry just thinking about it. Thanks for listening.
    "


    Stupid song from a stupid man who looks like he should be on some sort of watchlist. A favourite of drunken arseholes when it was first released.



    Preliminary Round/Match 2

    Jan Terri - Skyrockets

    Vs

    Silent A3 - Watch Me


    I want to introduce cult musician Jan Terri to a wider audience. Her music is only surpassed by her low-budget videos.


    Meaningless lyrics, and everyone in the video trying to be something they are not in an effort to be uber cool. F Right Off.



    Preliminary Round/Match 3

    Soulja Boy - Crank That

    Vs

    F.U.S.B.I - Come on Back


    Hated everything about this. The chorus, the lyrics, the oversized outfits. EVER.Y.THING But most espicially that horrible xylophone note throughout.







    Preliminary Round/Match 4

    Kid Rock - All Summer Long

    Vs

    Mark Gormley - Without You







    Velvet Underground - Rock and Roll Vs Richie Kavanagh - Aon Focal Eile
    Jan Terri - Skyrockets Vs Silent A3 - Watch Me
    Soulja Boy - Crank That Vs F.U.S.B.I - Come on Back
    Kid Rock - All Summer Long Vs Mark Gormley - Without You


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,951 ✭✭✭Irish Aris


    OMG. . .
    Some of these are really god awful. . . Rikand, you are a hero, sorry we put you through this hahaha

    Match 1: Richie Kavanagh (I like some of the Velvet Underground, wouldn't have them anywhere near a worst song competition)
    Match 2: Silent A3
    Match 3: F.U.S.B.I. (these are both really really bad)
    Match 4: Mark Gormley (really really poor aesthetic overall)

    Voting for the above three as they're worse imo.

    I actually don't hate that Kid Rock song :o

    Ok well then

    1. Richie Kavanagh, because Rock and Roll, although not the Velvet Underground's best, is still a good song.

    3. Soulja Boy, because crap with a high production budget is even worse than crap made by amateurs.
    4. Kid Rock, for same reason as #3


  • Registered Users Posts: 18,503 ✭✭✭✭Also Starring LeVar Burton


    Richie Kavanagh - Aon Focal Eile ; don't mind the Velvet Underground one at all. I did consider nominating Aon Focal Eile myself, but there were far worse to put in ahead of it, but its still awful so gets my vote here

    Silent A3 - Watch Me ; while both are truly awful, this one offends my ears slightly more

    Soulja Boy - Crank That ; Come On Back is a terrible performance, but there's the nugget of a decent song there, same can't be said for Crank That so it gets my vote

    Mark Gormley - Without You ; I actually like All Summer Long, so can't vote for it, and I'm not hating Without You if I'm being honest, it's got a certain quality to it that I enjoy, but of the two it is definitely the worst song

    Tough, but can't vote against Jan.

    F.U.S.B.I Come on Back
    I like the Soulja Boy song.

    Mark Gormley Without You

    Same as this poster. God I hate Richie Kavanagh.

    Yet that Jan Terri song brought me untold joy. I'm not sure if I love the video or the audio more.

  • Registered Users Posts: 12,842 ✭✭✭✭Rothko


    I'm perplexed that Rock And Roll made it into this competition at all

    Out of matches 2 and 3, I'd choose Skyrockets and Crank That

    Preliminary Round/Match 6

    Jenna Rose - My Jeans

    Vs

    Ylvis - What does the fox say











    Preliminary Round/Match 7

    Why I Hate It: Just hearing this incites violence and makes me want to punch something

  • Registered Users Posts: 18,503 ✭✭✭✭Also Starring LeVar Burton


    Cliff Richard - Congratulations ; one of my nominations, I absolutely despise it.

    Jenna Rose - My Jeans ; this is dreadful. Hadn't heard it before, but instantly hated it. I don't mind What Does The Fox Say

    Armi & Danny - I Wanna Love You Tender ; yeah, love Wonderwall, it's that simple. I Wanna Love You Tender is grand, but Wonderwall is fantastic, so have to vote Armi & Danny the worst of these two

    DJ Otzi - Hey Baby ; another of my nominations. I can hear how awful Lit Right Now is, but Hey Baby is far far worse, and I do want to punch something everytime I hear it.


  • Posts: 0 [Deleted User]


    #6 Jenna Rose - My Jeans as I actually quite like What Does The Fox Say :p
    #8 DJ Otzi - Hey Baby. Absolutely awful.

    You're voting for who stays in as usual, but in this case who stays in, is a bad thing. Voting for the one you hate the most.

  • Registered Users Posts: 13,360 ✭✭✭✭Kolido


    The Darkness - Believe in a thing called love, another of my noms

    Bagatelle - Somewhere in Europe, like the other song

    Counting Crows - Big Yellow Taxi, both are decent, like the other a bit more.


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,615 ✭✭✭PsychoPete


    Daphne & Celeste - U.G.L.Y gets my vote, Believe in a thing called love I quite like
    Bagatelle - Somewhere in Europe
    Chuck Berry - My Ding-A-Ling
    Counting Crows - Big Yellow Taxi Vs New Radicals - Get what you give. I like the both of these but I'll go with New Radicals


  • Posts: 0 [Deleted User]


    Daphne & Celeste - even though I'm not a big fan of the Darkness it's at least a proper song.
    Bagatelle - I love a good Eurovision tune but this is so overly-earnest that the cringe factor is too high to bear this.
    Ronan Keating - because Ronan Keating *vomit emoji*
    Counting Crows - a completely dreadful cover that literally nobody ever asked for .

    Daphne & Celeste - U.G.L.Y ; in fairness to Daphne & Celeste they have one or two solid tunes in their repertoire, but this ain't one of them. Also, I like The Darkness one

    Bagatelle - Somewhere in Europe ; its such a dull boring song, at least I'll Be Missing You ripped off a decent hook from The Police

    Chuck Berry - My Ding-A-Ling ; two dreadful songs, but the other one is mostly just boring, this one is bad on so many other levels

    Counting Crows - Big Yellow Taxi ; I like both these songs, but Counting Crows' own songs are much much better than this lackluster cover would lead people to believe and I think Big Yellow Taxi could deter people from giving Counting Crows a proper chance, as it is certainly their worst song.
