What is the WORST tune you have ever listened to???

[Speelgoedmannetje]

It seems the most annoying tune ever written is by the Electronicas, called "Birds dance"
The Netherlands is an uttermost fertile country for annoying musical accomplishes

Now don't mess around with hardcore :lol:
perfect for puberty
yup, I've been a "gabbertje", you know, such one with extremely short hair (not a nazi, though)

I always wondered who needed XTC anyway? Considering me that was for real wussies who cannot be in that state of mind by themselves.

i love hardcore!

Dunno what you think hardcore is, but here it is known as, let's say, house music on steroids.

oh yes, back on topic, the most irritating tunes, one came to mind: "Who let the dog out" If one's playing that again, I'm gonna commit murder :-x!

Alternatively, you have gabber, which is even more extreme and contains samples from Metal riffs, played high-pitched, too.

Whist I agree it's a bloody awful song to have to listen to, at least it actually can be called music. There's some chordal variation, structure etc. That's already way more than can be said for much of the crap today.

this I call a lousy argument. You expect a certain structure, and I think this is a very narrow view towards music (or other arts)

But I have to agree with you that popular music on the radio is utter crap for these reasons:

they're been played at moments you have no desire for that kind of music (one fancies a hot rave party in the morning with his coffee?)
They're been played so mindnumbingly often!
The ideas/concepts behind popular music has been chewed on dozens of times before and are way too simple.

:lol: That's actually in direct contradiction of your first statement. How can it be too simple? Is that not expecting something in particular (eg a bit of complexity) of it in order for it to be acceptable?

hm, you're correct about that in the first place
I said it wrong, I had to say that there are actually two kinds of expectations: the real absolute abstract one you mentioned and the one I try to explain here:
Y'know, most of us expect to listen to music with a "western" set of sounds, rythms and structures. Sometimes with some little eastern or African influences.

Modern music and art are often condemned by many. This is because real new (experimental) types of music can very well conflict with the expectation to hear a western type of music.

I'm just really fed up with most recent musical offerings

I was that already when I was thirteen or so, for the exact reasons I mentioned.
