Occasionally, a song makes it to my poor innocent ears which just deserves
to be burned. This is one of them.
'Chop Suey'
by System Of A
Down
Lame-O-Meter:
9
Okay, here's a great one... which will leave you with tears of laughter and/or agony.Click here to listen!
'Smells Like Teen Spirit'
Cover by Tori Amos!
Lame-O-Meter: 8 (Lameness reduced by the fact that it's damned funny.)
'Click, Click, Boom'
by Saliva
Lame-O-Meter: 9
The line seems to be blurring between metal and rap.
Rage Against The Machine has often been said to be the pioneers of the 'rock/metal movement'.
... Rage, however, never did achieve such levels of lameness ...
'Drops Of Jupiter'
by Train
Lame-O-Meter: 10
This song is just flonking EVIL! It has spent many hours STUCK IN MY HEAD. It must die. Painfully. die die 666 die 666 die 666 666 die die die...
* Lameness Update *
It appears that there is now a live version of Drops Of Jupiter, WITH a video, in 16:9 widescreen format! Humanity: Give up. It's over.
'Purple Pills'
by D12
Lame-O-Meter:
WHAT IN THE SPACKLE??? Special thanks, Rob, for sending me this little gem. This is so comically bad it just... OH DEAR GOD IT HURTS... This bit of rap bullcrud has apparently been circulating among some 'top 40' radio stations.
'Smooth Criminal'
by Alien Ant Farm
Lame-O-Meter: 8
This is quite possibly one of the worst pieces of CRAP I've ever encountered. It just BARELY manages to masuqerade as anything but the idiotic Puff Daddy wannabe crud it is... catchy tune, though. Welcome to Hell, here's your toilet paper.
'Tiptoe Through The Tulips'
by Tiny Tim
Lame-O-Meter:6
OH MAKE IT STOP FOR THE LOVE OF GOD... THE LAUGHTER HURTS...
'Because I Got High'
By 'Afroman' (?)
Lame-O-Meter: Segmentation fault. Bus error. Core dumped. Kernel panic.
Here's one of those songs we're all be humming in the shower ten years from now and contemplating suicide.
'Survivor'
by Destiny's Child
Lame-O-Meter: 9.5
*PING!* Stop requested.
YEEAAAUGHHH. This is quite possibly the whiniest, most insanely repetitive, and generally STUPID thing I have ever heard (well, ok, Purple Pills IS technically worse.)
Extra lameness points added for the interview I saw right after the video for this song; in which they babbled on and on for about 2 minutes about how God loved them and brought them together as a group and all that spoony. GACK.
'Drive'
by Incubus
Lame-O-Meter: 5
What the hell are they talking about...? This song is only mentioned here due to borderline annoyingness. That's all.
'The Bus'
by The Sporks
Lame-O-Meter: 4
Word of advice: Cheap mics are NOT worth it. This song actually sounds vaguely like it was recorded ON the bus. But once you get past the unintelligible vocals, the guitar and drums are pretty spiffy.
'Shame Of Life'
by the Butthole Surfers
Lame-O-Meter: 10.00001
Oh dear GOD NO. Why the hell are you subjecting me to this auditory torture? MAKE IT STOP! This song has all the makings of pathetic gangsta rap without the harmony (Note that gangsta rap has none). A little more than a perfect ten.
'Kick Some Ass'
By Stroke 9
Lame-O-Meter: 8
What in the SPOON?
'It's Been A While'
By Staind
Lame-O-Meter: 8
This could quite possibly be one of the most horribly overplayed, whiny songs known to man. It's been a whiiiiiiile... since I changed the station. *flush*
'IM Me'
By Britney Cleary
Lame-O-Meter: 9.999999999
Hmm. How about America Online? (No URL for you!). What better place to enjoy a session of surrealistically pathetic interaction?
Apparently, there's now a song about it. Click here to listen!
I'm sure you'll agree, this person needs to be shot.
(Yes, I finally figured out who the actual person responsible for this is...)
I'm still working on it... Be sure to e-mail in those suggestions.
