what is the worst music? get as specific or general as you want.

[paulxcook]

Billy Joel's "My Life" is a perfect example of the worst kind of music I can imagine. I'd rather listen to rap, country, emo, or polka. Pianos are for classical, jazz, etc, or minimal rock use. The driving force should be the guitar.

I could not disagree more. It is all subjective.

I guess you must hate most of Elton Johns stuff too? :roll:

 

[nakedfrog]

The kind I don't like.

 

[GeekDrew]

/me puts Billy Joel's "My Life" on the list to download soonish. Sounds like a great song.

The worst music, IMO? Rap. I'd almost rather go deaf than ever have to listen to it. Ever.

 

[BassBomb]

emo, death metal, happy hardcore, hardcore

those are the ones that really bug me

what i listen to though is like

dnb (all types) >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>trance/techno/house>>> rap >>>> punjabi>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>rock (only what comes up on radio and i didnt change/turn it off)

 

[KeithTalent]

Any of that crap uhohs links to. That stuff just creeps me out and makes my ears bleed.

I think that's actually one of Billy Joel's better songs.
Uptown Girl is complete shit. I can't stand that f'n song.

 

[lozina]

definitely rap. especially the "hard core" I kill cops and rape women type of rap.

I would consider him more pop. I find him 100x more listenable than Billy Joel.

 

[Feneant2]

(C)rap and R&B are definitely the worst in my mind.

I find so much of it glamourizes violence, drugs, whores, etc.... I know most of these people grew up with this so they sing about what they know but come on, there are enough troubled kids out there without you influencing more!

 

[sdifox]

rap...

 

[Ns1]

emo

everytime i hear emo music i want to cut myself

 

[BladeVenom]

Rap, I don't even think most of it should be called music.

 

[Zenem]

For those of you saying rap, there actually are a few artists that try to tackle more complex issues than sex and drugs. For example - http://hypem.com/track/575852/AOK-You+Are+a+God or http://hypem.com/track/575853/...les+From+Planet+Grolic. I think he makes some pretty good music .

 

[RightIsWrong]

Each song should be rated in a vacuum of whether it is good or not based on personal preference. The genre that it is categorized in is irrelevant to whether it is good or bad.

 

[KeithTalent]

People saying rap probably only know the crap from the radio/MTV/Cribs or whatever. There is a lot of quality rap/hip-hop out there.

That's pretty much how I approach music.

Definitly this. I listen to all kinds of music, but not this crap.

Rap
Hip-hop
R&B
emo

They all suck.

 

[Saint Michael]

Traditional Japanese shamisen music. Three strings playing some of the most boring melodies I've ever heard over and over with virtually no variation. The West certainly hit the bullseye where music is concerned.

I usually don't. There is decent stuff out there to listen to in pretty much any genre, but to me it is not worth digging through the shit surrounding the diamond, if you will.
