Disillusioned. "Famous" and "Psycho" are miles above this.

I don't see this doing so well on Alternative..... I think it'll have a run similar to Halestorm's "I Get Off" or Nickelback's "Something In Your Mouth" on Alternative..................never going Top 20 but holding some form of longevity beneath that threshold due to the loyalty of some Active Rock-leaning stations. Sincerely, Lisping Hibiscus

It may scrape the Top 20, but more likely I think it'll hover just below the Top 20. Sincerely, Lisping Hibiscus

I'm gonna predict #1 on the Worst Single Of 2009 format. I don't know, there's a lot of competition out there this year. I Almost Told You That I Loved You? Blame It? Boom Boom Pow? What I can say is that this will tank even by "Life on Display"'s standards. Heck, this could be their "Cinco Diablo".

Those three songs are all bad, but they're at least catchy. Catchiness alone doesn't by any means salvage a song, but the combination of vulgarity and blandness just makes "Spaceship" pathetic, and thus IMO worse than the three songs you mentioned. "Hate My Life" by Theory of a Deadman beats "Spaceship" for the same reasons.

I Gotta Feeling no lie here is actually #6, and Boom Boom Pow I tolerate, therefore won 't be in my top 50 worst of the year. Other considerations for the top 10 include Blame It, Fallin' For You, I'm In Miami Trick, Life After You (yeah, the sh*tty new Daughtry single), Knock You Down, Halo, I Do Not Hook Up, Lovegame, Dead And Gone, and Fire Burning.
Yeah lots of songs so it will be tough

Yeah lots of songs so it will be tough I agree with you on most of those, but I love Fallin' For You, Halo, and Knock You Down. The rest, yes, are among the worst of the year. Sometime in the near future, I'll compile my list.

Yeah lots of songs so it will be tough Nah, this is worse than all of those! ;) Songs like "Fallin' For You" and "Life After You" are just terribly generic for the sake of being terribly generic, while others like "Fire Burning" and "I'm In Miami" simply regurgitate many of the conventional topics in commercial Rhythmic radio. "Spaceship" is not only terribly generic and regurgitates the same cliches of other recent Active Rock hits lately...............it screams of desperation for a band that used to define itself as post-grunge and focus on pensive themes to maintain any commercial viability by postulating themselves to cock-rock opportunistically like Papa Roach have done and Nickelback have done to a larger degree. For that reason, this is WORSE than all the above tracks (and yes, many of them are bad) Sincerely, Lisping Hibiscus

"Knock You Down" and "Dead and Gone" are some of the best songs of this year. Way better than this garbage.

Lol, I think you guys are weighing lyrical content too much and who's singing the song in your worst songs lists. A song like Hotel Room Service for example is actually sonically a strong track. Party in the USA is as catchy as catchy gets and I say there's nothing wrong with that. Same goes for several others listed in here. But I just gotta say shame on you Cody for including Halo as one of the worst of the year. :o >:( Then again I like pop music, and a lot of you guys here don't really, so that pretty much explains it. Anyways, this song is awful, and I've always stuck up for this band. There's really nothing redeeming to be said with this though, and the only word that keeps coming to mind here is awful. Psycho was such a step in the right direction for them too.

oops, forgot to put "Birthday Sex" in there for worst too Though "Spaceship" would still be the worst in my view, I'd also add "I Almost Told You That I Loved You", "Hey Soul Sister", "Bird Walk", "Backwoods", "Face Drop", "Hate My Life", "Nothing Ever Hurt Like You" (actually a 2008 release even though it didn't really launch until 2009), "Turn My Swag On" and "The Good Lord And The Man" to my Top Ten Worst of 2009 to date. Sincerely, Lisping Hibiscus

Psycho was such a step in the right direction for them too. I agree, and I like "Party In The USA" because it's a confident, up-tempo pop-rocker that showcases Cyrus' maturing vocals well, while I don't necessarily like "Hotel Room Service" but also agree Pitbull has a keen ear for production in the track and for that it's surely not among the worst songs of this year either. My Top Ten was selected from multiple formats including Country radio, which few others here seem to frequent, where they've had a terrible year but I consider "Backwoods" and "The Good Lord And The Man" the absolute worst of the bunch ("Southern Voice", "Sideways", "Summer Nights", "It's America", "Shuttin' Detroit Down", "That Thang", "What It Takes" and "Here Comes Goodbye" just to name a handful were all terrible too) Sincerely, Lisping Hibiscus

"That's Not My Name"? "Right Round"? "You're Going Down"? "Don't Trust Me"? "Single Ladies"? "Light It Up"? "Bad Girlfriend"? Can't believe all those have survived this thread thus far. And "Undead" and "Champagne" even, I don't think hearing those two songs anymore than once apiece while drunk off my ass would help them at all either.
They're all "Stairway to Heaven" compared to "Spaceship" though. But if we must fill out the list...

I try to only include songs that were official releases in 2009. And lol of all the mentioned songs by others here, I love all the TOAD ones, Hey Soul Sister is EPIC, Don't Trust Me, You're Going Down, Right Rounf, Undead, Champagne, and I Almost Told You That I Loved You are all songs that I like and definitely wont be putting on my list. I can see that everyone's list is gonna be very different though lol

So is Lisping Hibiscus your Japanese name or what? I was thinking more Polynesian! ;) Actually, it is my stage name, but many in the Portland community have started referring to me by it so I just tend to refer myself by my stage name now. Sincerely, Lisping Hibiscus
