So I want to copy THINKIN BOUT YOU and MilesW1998 and whoever else has done this a bit here, and review a full year end list because I do like sharing my opinions on music. So I've decided that, after looking more extensively at 2011's year end list, quite a few of the songs I have never heard so I will be doing the 2013 list. After I finish that I will (most likely) do 2015 because Miles will have finished is version (I assume). Anyway, reveals will start soon-ish.

2011. It was a great year and probably one of the best for pop music imo.

I vote for 2013 'cause it's been my favorite year in music this decade (so far, of course). -- Well, now that you've decided, tag me in when you start to reveal. ;)

You already did 2013 rankdown so we know how your list will be. 2011 was better.

I'm going to change my list up, plus give my opinion of the songs instead of just a ranking

100. #thatPOWER - will.i.am ft. Justin Bieber
We begin this year end review, with one of the worst hits of ALL TIME. The good songs this year were better than usual, but I'd argue the worse songs were worse than usual. This song is not 100 for Bieber's chorus, which was delivered reasonably well to be honest, but it's here for everything else. The beat rings in your ears, leaving a terrible thumping noise lasting for a few minutes at least. In general, the production is the worst part of the song, but it is only part of the problem. The other is the poorly executed auto-tune and will.i.am's dumbass lyrics.

For me, Justin Bieber is the good part of this song, but after that chorus it's a huge disappointment. Even some of will's "clever" lines over that bland and boring beat make it sound tired and stale. I wouldn't say this is the worst song of 2013, not by a long shot, when there are others I'd consider to be much MUCH worse.

I'm glad its a song I actually dislike, but I'm worried we're going to run in to some good songs I like/love.

99. Scream & Shout - will.i.am ft. Britney Spears
Oh, will.i.am, what a nice surprise to see you back here again! This song has just as poor production as #thatpower, but one of the synths that is used sounds nice, so I'll give this song that. However, Scream & Shout is placed here more because of the artists involved rather than the production. The "will.i.am and Britney bitch" part of the song makes me cringe so hard. Apart from that specific example their are a lot of annoying repeated lines like "you gotta turn the s**t up" and "all eyes on us" that replace any space for actual/good lyrics. Another nitpick, but at a few stages during the chorus when Britney is singing over will.i.am, it sounds really awkward.

You're kidding me... One of my favourites of the year.
Damn my naive mouth.

I actually like Scream & Shout a lot. It's a definitive guilty pleasure to me. Even with the repetitive lyrics and dated darl club production, I never hated this at all. That and I'm a bit of a sucker for male/female duets.

98. Cruise (Remix) - Florida Georgia Line ft. Nelly
I know that these idiots are easy targets and all, but seriously, this is shit. Really, really shit. I never thought I'd see the day, that a fucking country song has auto-tune. Seriously. Also, this guy's voice is one of the worst I've heard. Plus, I'm all for a Nelly verse, but it just doesn't fit in a country song, also it's not exactly, you know, very good.

This is where I feel country breathed it's last breathe, because this basically killed what made country good and turned it into musical punching bags with bro-country being the main stereotype. This is one of the first when I think of shitty country, or just bro-country in general. I hope That's My Kind Of Night By Luke Bryan goes out soon, which I'd argue might be worse than Cruise.

97. Harlem Shake - Baauer
The most fun I had from listening to this rubbish again, was picking the video of my favourite footy team doing the Harlem Shake lmao. This spent 5 weeks at number 1. I repeat, 5 weeks. Over 1 month. Over 50,000 minutes. This needs no explanation.

One of the worst songs of all time. No that's not me over-exaggerating, I really, REALLY think this is one of the worst songs ever. And the fact this song holds the record for most streams in a single week (Over 100 million) is depressing to say the least.

96. That's My Kind of Night - Luke Bryan
Here you are Miles, a song that rivals Cruise for worst "country" song of the year. The parts of the song where Luke tries to rap, are pathetic and just come off as annoying as f*ck. Also the "chicken dinner" part is utter cringe and garbage, and should be erased from existence, along with this atrocity of a song.
0/500
p.s - forgot to add that I'm using the same s**t, bad, meh, decent, good, great tier system as Miles and TheDoubleAgent

It's shit, bad, meh, DECENT, good, great. You forgot the decent tier is three points.
But yeah Luke Bryan is cancer, he pretty much started the whole bro-country trend with his awful Country Girl (Shake It For Me)

95. Beauty and a Beat - Justin Bieber ft. Nicki Minaj
In 2013, even Justin Bieber was jumping on the s**tty EDM bandwagon and like most, failing. And he even brought along Nicki Minaj to do help him! Bieber hadn't gone through his progressive 2015 stage yet at this point, so he's still a whiny little brat with little singing talent on this track. Meanwhile Nicki spends half of her verse saying Beauty and a Beat as many ways as possible; joy!

Awful, awful awful! EDM wasn't as bad for me in 2013 imo, but this is just plain garbage. I can like EDM to an extent, but not this.

94. The Fox - Ylvis
This song is a joke, I know but I can't just excuse it because it's a joke. The simple fact is it's technically a poor song and overall this joke wore out quickly.

The fox yiffs, the end. I do somewhat low key like this as a guilty pleasure tho. I feel so bad for saying that.

93. U.O.E.N.O - Rocko ft. Future & Rick Ross
I image a lot of people would have this at 100, and while I can see that logic, it's just not as insufferable as some of the cringey bro-country or pain inducing pop/EDM. That said, it's still the worst rap hit of the year, made worse by a certain Rick Ross line that has kinda ruined his career to everyone but rap fans.

The lyrics make this one of the worst, it rivals that of Love Me by Future, Drake, and Lil Wayne. Rick Ross basically raps about drugging a girl and raping her, come on, do I need to say anything else?

92. Pour it Up - Rihanna
Why, oh why Rihanna did you have to do this. Seriously though, why. A strip club anthem filled with some of the most repetitive and repulsive lyrics of the year, coming from one of my favourite pop singers of all time. The lyrics are pretty much the reason why this is so low, but the generic beat doesn't do the song any favours either. Useless.

91. It Goes Like This - Thomas Rhett
Did you really expect anything else from Thomas motherfuking Rhett? I mean, this sounds more like pissy acoustic pop than country like it's supposed to be. Thomas Rhett's vocals are annoying as usual, especially when he's saying "ooooh" or "heeeeey" in the chorus. Overall this is a nothingness of a song that sounds fake is filled with annoying vocal moments.
