I found a fun website - watchmojo.com. I think the word "mojo" has been around a long time, but I still don't know what it means. If it means a cool bunch of top 10 lists, then they're right on using that word. Like every day they put out a new list. A couple I saw were Top 10 Most Hated Songs, then Another Top 10 Most Hated Songs. I would like to critique their lists. Some of those songs are just fine and some really are awful. I've put them into categories.
Meant to be awful - Some songs are corny or stupid, but they are made that way on purpose. If its really bad, people will at least pay attention. So Hampster Dance, Cotton Eyed Joe, Who Let the Dogs Out, What the Fox Says, and I'm a Gummy Bear - You're doing just fine. If a song is meant to be bad, it can't make the list, so keep your heads up.
Rap Songs - There aren't enough lists to contain most hated songs in the rap category as far as I'm concerned. So these are just too easy. OK, maybe Stupid Hoe, Crank That, My Humps, Boom Boom Pow, and Anaconda are terrible even for rap, but I'm just not qualified to judge the badness of rap songs. By the way hats off to Justin Bieber, Nicki Minaj, Black Eyed Peas for each making the lists twice. If you have two of the 20 worst songs of all time it might be time to find another line of work.
Great Songs - Party in the USA - Great song. I believe that was in Miley Cyrus' Post-Hannah Montana / Pre-Insanity period. Its a fun little song. It doesn't belong here. Also I love Fridays. I don't know why people hate that it so. Rebecca Black is adorable, the music is catchy - only the lyrics are dumb. Two out of three ain't bad - Ironically the name of a song that really does belong on the list. The Ketchup Song - I've never heard that before, but its adorable as well.
That leaves not that many that really belong on those lists - Boyfriend, Blurred Lines, Achy Breaky Heart, Gangham Style. They are very deserving of the lists.
I need to make my only list I guess. They didn't go back in time far enough. Blind Man in the Bleachers, Muskrat Love, Horse with No Name - How do those not make their list. I'll work on it.
