So Bad It's Good: Music you think is bad but still enjoy/find funny

"Scream and Shout" by Britney Spears and Will.i.am. I like how Britney sings with a British accent in the song for some reason.

YOU ARE NOW—NOW ROCKIN' WITH, WILL.I.AM AND—!!

britney bitch.

Absolutely pristine. It's a crime that Pitchfork hasn't given this a 10/10 yet.

I'm gonna go out in a limb and say that I don't think that's actually too bad. Certainly weird, bizarre, and certainly far too long for what it is, but otherwise, I'd say it actually is pretty neat. Whether it's by accident or design, though, who knows.

In "honor" of Fall Out Boy's return, I present to you the silliest, cheesiest song from Patrick Stump's failed solo career. Ironically, it's titled "As Long As I Know I'm Getting Paid":

This was so bad, it made me laugh to tears the first time I heard it.

Price Tag by Jessie J.

Every time I hear this song, I can't help but laugh at the sheer hypocrisy of it. Especially considering that it's riffing on KatyPerry's sound.

You think that's bad? I saw a commercial for some Monopoly card game or something that used that song but changed the words to "It's ALL about the money, money, money!"

And then Jesus wept for humanity.

I thought the same.

: Actually, it sounds like I'd prefer that version. At least it proves Mr Monopoly is honest.

Oh, and the thing I thought of when I read "Monopoly card game" was "Monopoly Deal". If so,it's sad, because Deal is even more addictive than Monopoly proper and they went and took a Jessie J-shaped dump on it.

Believe that's the product it was hawking.

I actually kinda like that song. It's by no means a masterpiece, but as far as songs go, it's pretty harmless and inoffensive, the message at least has good intentions, and Jessie J isn't a bad singer (even if the melody she's singing is pretty stale, as well as the chord progression).

: Ah, the Four Chords That Made A Million. If you turned on a mainstream radio station and drank every time you heard those chords, your liver would commit suicide on you.

And I agree that the song is So Okay, It's Average musically. It's the message that makes it worthy of a spot in this thread, because she clearly doesn't mean it. Saying "it's not about the money" in the Money, Dear Boy climate of the modern music industry is like walking into a church and saying "I hate Jesus". If you ask me, they only did that to give the Rule-Abiding Rebel audience a theme song.

I remember The Rap Critic made a joke about the message of "Price Tag", something like "I was gonna buy your album to support a new artist, but since you don't want my money, I'll just go ahead and dowload it for free."

Heh, fair points.

So, last night I was at a sparsely attended bar game night when one of the regular patrons had the bartender put this video on. It was only after looking it up that I found out it was the same guy who brought us the already mentioned "Thrift Shop":

That seems like it's supposed to be intentionally funny, though.

Come to think of it, this seems like a lost Flight Of The Conchords song

TV tropes has shown me the most wonderful and horrible things. This is like the The Room of music videos, just with more goths and egyptian mythology

it doesn't make the least bit of sense

Oh god, this song from Chris Barnes' new side project, Ihate, is fucking hilarious:

I'd say that's a genuinely good song that's enjoyable and funny.

Good =/= serious.

Chacarron Macarron by El Chombo/El Mudo (don't really know which one). It's pretty ridiculous.

Nothing in the world of Survival Horror can prepare you for this:

The top youtube comment for that is simply "Charlie Brown's parents having sex". And now I can't hear it any other way.

I could probably take that seriously if it was in a Mother game or something. But...Resident Evil, really?
