| Music Today's Just Awful
People around me often talk about how there hasn't been any good music in the past decade or whatever. I calmly tell them there has been amazing music in the past decade. I list some of my favorite bands, many of which I learned about here. They respond, well mainstream music today is shit. And that still didn't ring true for me, sure the 60s had the Beatles, the 70s had Led Zeppelin, the 80s had..., the 90s had Nirvana. But I couldn't think of what we had. Now, after a quick search on ol' Wikipedia, I can. My favorite "mainstream" songs from 2006, 2007 and some of 2008, as determined by Billboard. | | 1 | Nelly Furtado featuring Timbaland
Promiscuous | | 2 | Gnarls Barkley
Crazy | | 3 | Justin Timberlake
SexyBack | | 4 | What Goes Around...Comes Around | | 5 | Ain't No Other Man
Christina Aguilera | | 6 | Red Hot Chili Peppers
Dani California | | 7 | Snow ((Hey Oh)) | | 8 | KT Tunstall
Black Horse and the Cherry Tree | | 9 | Akon featuring Eminem
Smack That | | 10 | Beyonce featuring Jay-Z
Deja Vu | | 11 | Beyonce
Irreplaceable | | 12 | John Mayer
Waiting On the World to Change | | 13 | Black Eyed Peas
Pump It | | 14 | Rihanna featuring Jay-Z
Umbrella | | 15 | Maroon 5
Makes Me Wonder | | 16 | Alicia Keys
No One | | 17 | Sara Bareilles
Love Song | |

07.15.08 | With the exception of 6,7,10, and 13, most of these are actually very good. | Zoo
07.15.08 | The Mysto and Pizzi remixes for 3 and 4 are nastiness. | iarescientists
07.15.08 | first 5 are tight but then it goes downhill | natey
07.15.08 | When I didn't have an MP3 player for a bit I would scream 16 at the top of my lungs along with the radio. one of the gayest periods of my life. needs usher | ThePriceofBeauty
07.15.08 | Ew.
Theres some serious negative talent on this. | ThePriceofBeauty
07.15.08 | And the 80's had the 3 best Metallica albums...
*Sigh. | Jim
07.15.08 | there is some good mainstream stuff today, but most of this isn't it | Ironpriest
07.15.08 | 80's would have to be my favorite era, cant go past the hair metal, love it.
Dani California and snow are probably up there with my favorite rhcp songs. The rest is really girly modern pop that im not into, but if thats what you like then awsum. | TheStarclassicTreatment
07.15.08 | 1, 3, 5, 9, 10 and 13 suck
2, 4, 6, 7, 8, 11, 12, 14, 16 and 17 own.
And 15 is meh | StreetlightRock
07.15.08 | Pump It is a f'ucking horrible song, but the rest of this list is pretty cool, I wouldn't have the RHCP picks on here either. | Cuban Pete
07.15.08 | in b4 chan | BallsToTheWall
07.15.08 | 9 is pretty much the worst song i've ever heard, and lost a little respect for Eminem in the process. Some real crap but 14 is amazing and 17 is pretty solid. Needs Regina Spektor, Yael Naim, etc. | Dethtrasher
07.15.08 | I hate everything on this list. | FlawedPerfection
07.15.08 | Lots of good choices on here, but some scary ones too. "Pump It" and "Irreplacable" are horrible, imo. But "Black Horse and the Cherry Tree" all the JT, and of course "Crazy" are aawesome. | ohcleverhansyou
07.15.08 | I couldn't really get into Regina Spektor, and yeah it needs some Yael Naim...A lot of these would be on my "guilty pleasures" list, if I felt guilty about my pleasures. As it stands, for some of these songs, I recognize them as something I shouldn't really like (Smack That, No One), but songs I none the less enjoy. | Seantmpc13
07.15.08 | 1 is OK. 2, 6, and 7 are good but were overplayed. 14 is decent. 17 is pretty good. She has a good voice. | Serpento
07.15.08 | Missing other songs that were on Timberlake's album to replace some of the incomparable bad. | Chewie
07.16.08 | uggh, why is this stuff respected around here and then some mediocre rock bands are flamed....
16's alright. | natey
07.16.08 | no one no onee nooo ooneeeeeeeeeeee |
