I also feel like his version of "Lost Stars" was the last really good thing he was a part of, too.

 

I'd kick it to the next John Carney movie, because I really like "Go Now" from Sing Street, but that's the same basic idea: a song he sings really well that a more talented songwriter wrote.

 

Oh man, the gaslight anthem has so many great tunes I had no idea so many here disliked them

 

Logged into Twitter for the first time in awhile and yeah, was bombarded by “worst song takes” because someone retweeted a Tiny Desk video of Edward Sharpe singing “Home”. Like, that’s not a bad song at all. And so many takes were terrible.

We all know the worst song is “All About That Bass.”

 

Home makes me cringe. The chorus is whatever but those verses my god.

 

Also I think it’s weird to not dislike any song. Robot behavior.

 

this one is worse than All About That Bass imo

 

This is true. I just don’t want to use the energy and time it would take to rank all of Meghan Trainor’s worst songs, so I just default to “All About That Bass”.

 

God forbid two partners make lists through the magic of song!

 

My gf just put it on in the car and it’s a contender but Nicki Minaj - Beez in the trap

 

she has at least three different contenders, pretty impressive tbh

 

Edward Sharpe definitely not a great band but a wild choice to start this discourse. Also just not what I think of when I think of stomp clap

 

I don’t think I know what an Edward Sharpe is?

Also, the Nickelback songs mentioned are trashy but kinda fun. Whatever. Certainly more tolerable to me than AJR or whatever.

 

Sweet Caroline and Brown Eyed Girl actually started all of this, which is more insane

 

home is wherever I’m with you, Tim

 

Western PA, got it

 

Ok fine, I’ll look it up.

…

Oh yeah, this song? I kinda remember it. Something something Arkansas, something love my ma and pa. I also remember there being a group called “magnetic zeroes” or whatever.

Idk, it’s fine I guess? Incapable of having a strong opinion of it.

 

that song being included on a million tiktoks and instagram reels is more annoying than the song itself

 

I don't know any AJR songs well enough to nominate a specific one. I'm fine with them simply being the worst opener I ever had to sit through.

 

ajr is music for people who don’t like music

 

There was a specific AJR song about playing a violin or something that my sister would play in the car, that stood out as annoying.

Everything else I was exposed to from them blended together into an amorphous blob of nothing music, but in an annoying way instead of ambivalence.

 

yeah i think the violin song is what most people are referring to

 

If only we could get Gregg Alexander and Glen Hansard to team-up and write a Maroon 5 album.
