The 40 Worst Songs of 2013



There are trends every year that quickly become tiring be it ringtone rappers or being told to throw your hands in the year. But this year’s trend may have hit a new low: hashtags. Sure artists taking new internet technology has been since right after Al Gore gifted it to us (who does not have Collio.com in their album collection? Not coincidentally that was his first album not to go platinum). Hashtags popped up everywhere this year, well except actual social networking sites. Other horrible trends this year include Lil’ Wayne trying to pull trash out of history’s trash bin and Miley Cyrus. And you know it has been a bad year for music when Katy Perry, who has landed one song on this list each of the past five years, is absent this year.

  1. I'm feeling pretty fabulous right now because I have heard only a small handful of these bad songs.

    1. For me, Worst is synonymous with Annoyed Me the Most. I only heard that Chloe song once and a month after the only time I heard it I can barely even remember what it sounds like. Compared to Counting Cars which may have been the most overplayed bad song of the year. Sure there where much more overplayed songs of the year, but they ranged from legitimately good (Royals) to mediocre (the Maclamore songs) to too boring to hate (Roar). If I heard that Chloe song as many times as Counting Stars, it may have been a lot higher on this list but it was really too inconsequential too hate as much.

    2. Still raises a question, how is Counting Stars a bad song?
