You must be wondering, why Alek, have you done a best Songs of 2010 and a Best/Worst films of 2010 and NOT A WORST SONGS of 2010?? Well stranger, due to my unbusy life, my list for worst songs of 2010 was pushed back. but fear not, as we are only38 days into the new year, and finally the wait is over, here it is, the top 5 worst songs of 2010.
5. What's My Name: Rihanna feat. Drake
Rihanna is like a line of drinks that steadily gets worse as you drink them. She had more hits this year then anyone else, and they all kept getting worse and worse as the year went on. Drake's opening verse is useless, the words don't matter at all in this song, and I don't think Rihanna is really trying anymore. She's run out of steam for me, and this pathetic excuse for a song, let alone a Number One song, is her bikini on top of her best year. I weep for the future.
4. OMG: Usher feat. Will.i.am
I've never listened to Usher that much, I think he's just an average star, not the big deal that everyone made him out to be this year with his new album. This was the first song they put off that album, and whoever the PR guy was that green lighted this should be forced to spend the rest of his days watching Live Free or Die(*shudder). It's a stupid dance song about a guy who says "ohmigosh" when he sees this stunning girl. Will.i.am doesn't do anything to the song, and I don't have a clue why he's on this. This song, and the next reinforce the stereotype that all pop songs are stupid and about girls, clubbing and getting drunk. Thanks a bunch Usher.
3. TikTok: Ke$ha
Biggest hit of 2010. What does that say about where the world is going. This introduced us to Ke$ha, and we've yet to be rid of her yet. She's like a kid trying to hang around in a group of people that none of them want. Nobody I know really likes her, and I've yet to hear of her going on the scale of Lady Gaga or Katy Perry in terms of sales(although she somehow made the top 10 best selling albums of 2010, thankfully at Number 10). What has been said about this song has been done to death, and I really don't need to add fuel to this fire, but a list of the worst without Ke$ha is like a list of dictators without Hitler.
2. Baby: Justin Bieber
As happy as I am to be Canadian with all the bands like Arcade Fire, Rush, The Band etc, Justin Bieber makes me ashamed to be Canadian. Don't feed me the schlock about him, you couldn't change my mind about him. I've hated this kid the moment I heard him, and not even with people like Katy Perry, Rihanna, and Ke$ha, there's at least one silver lining with them in terms of songs. With Justin Bieber, I cannot foresee this in the near future. Unless his deepened voice improves his songwriting, his legacy will be that this song beat Bad Romance as the most viewed video on YouTube of all time.
1. California Gurls: Katy Perry
No song I have ever listened to has been so fucking overplayed in my life that I can't stand. Thankfully, eight months later, it's no longer played, since replaced by Firework. But while I love Teenage Dream, to think it was proceeded by this is unbelievable. Annoying, colorful and stupid, just like the lady herself, this song has left me with an undeniable hate towards Katy Perry, not just because of the song. This song turned Katy Perry into Britney Spears. She will now sing horrible songs and perform past her prime, have a failed marriage before forcing us to care again with her comeback song that will keep her in our lives for years to come. Congrats Katy Perry for having the double honor of Best/Worst Songs of 2010(I took Snoop Doggs name off the title, and if had had any sense so would he.)
