Top 10 Worst Songs of the 2010s

Too much positivity on this blog so far! Here's a healthy dose of songs I loathe.

Not all of these are objectively the worst things ever (though I would argue some of them are...ok, maybe most of them), but I despise them all for various reasons. Remember, these are just my opinions, and I don't think any less of you as a person if you enjoy one or more of these.

I'm not reviewing these, but on a few I'll provide a bit of explanation.

Enjoy, or hate.



Honorable Mention: Skrillex - Scary Monsters and Nice Sprites (Phonat Remix)

10. Coldplay - A Sky Full of Stars  ||  Released 2014  ||  Dance Pop  || ... the point I started to hate modern Coldplay. I'm a huge apologist against snobs who take shots at their earlier stuff, and even Mylo, but I can't stand this song.

9. LMFAO - Sorry for Party Rocking  ||  Released 2012  ||  Electro House

8. Eminem - Chloraseptic  ||  Released 2017  ||  Pop Rap

7. Tom MacDonald - Whiteboy  ||  Released 2018  ||  Political Hip Hop  || ... sensitive much? WHITE...BOY. WHITE...BOY.

6. Hugh Jackman & The Greatest Showman Ensemble - A Million Dreams ||  Released 2017  ||  Film Soundtrack  || ... vapid, falsely sincere, generic, annoying. 

5. Lil Dicky - Earth  ||  Released 2019  ||  Comedy Rap

4. Ylvis - The Fox  ||  Released 2013  ||  Novelty

3. 93PUNX - It's a Bad Dream  ||  Released 2019  ||  Emo Rap  || ...if only it was...if only it was...

2. Walk the Moon - Shut Up + Dance  ||  Released 2014  ||  Alternative Dance  || ... the worst kind of earworm. Makes me physically grind my teeth, without hyperbole.

1. Disturbed - The Sound of Silence  ||  Released 2016  ||  Symphonic Rock  || ... the worst cover ever made.

Ranking Chelsea Wolfe's Discography (Worst to Best)

Similar / relevant lists: Gaian Doom Boxset               Chelsea Wolfe Interview Compilation                 Radiohead Song Ranking Björk Ranking                          The Joy Formidable Ranking Chelsea Wolfe is a strong contender for my favorite artist of all time. Her and the eponymous band's style is versatile, and, contrary to the views of some detractors, not chameleonic; all of her work is very dark and often gothic, but there are many different facets and angles of her own unique darkness that she comes at in her work. Genres she has explored include ethereal wave, dark folk, doom metal, and gothic rock. In this ranking, I will list my favorite studio albums in reverse order. Underneath, I will rank my 50 favorite songs of hers. 8. Mistake in Parting  ||  Alternative Rock  ||  2006  ||  5.5/10 7. Birth ...

Cold & Dark Electronic (Genre Playlist)

Electronic music spans a vast and diverse landscape, but the cold and dark subgenres hold a special place for their atmospheric depth and emotive intensity. These tracks are characterized by moody, intricate production, and often explore themes of introspection, dystopia, and the human condition. The artists in this realm push the boundaries of sound, crafting music that is both haunting and mesmerizing. The past few decades have seen a significant evolution in these subgenres, with innovation and experimentation leading to some truly unforgettable tracks. Electronic production is often associated with newer music...I don't necessarily agree with this, but there is a definite tendency towards some more recent tracks here. Nevertheless, there is a good amount of older stuff in this playlist as well. Below is an unranked (but carefully curated) playlist of some of my favorite cold and dark electronic songs from across the years. Hope you enjoy! 1. The Knife - Silent Shout  ||  S...
