I nominate Third Eye Blind's "Non-Dairy Creamer"

Banal lyrics are commonplace among pop songs, but you get the unfortunate feeling that Non-Dairy Creamer is trying to take itself seriously. Its not like Third Eye Blind is incapable of tackling serious subjects with pop glitter like they did in "Semi Charmed Life" or "Jumper".

At least its catchy.

Quote »They call it KFC'Cause it's not really chickenHot chettos for breakfastMake a young student sick andDid you ever think someone's trickin' you... you, you, you?

And the guy in the pulpitIs a bigot and a liarSome kid walks into my school and opens fireHeard any good jokes lately?'Cause we sure do need 'emMy punk band's called Operation Iraqi Freedom

What's it gonna be?Are you real to me?Or are you non dairy... creamer?[/quote]The best comparison they could make between dishonesty and the truth is milk versus non-dairy coffee creamer?

I like mindless pop, but when mindless pop tries to be thoughtful and clever beyond its ability, it loses its appeal. This is why, despite being a foot-tapping little song, its awful for trying so hard but coming up so short.

I still have it in regular rotation on my playlist.

Theyre kinda my favorite band

As of right now, that stupid "Whatcha say" song by Jason Derulo.

This is the song in a nutshell: I cheated on you and I only feel remorseful because you found out. However, if you take me back, it'll pay off because when I get rich then I'll buy you anything you want.

I hate modern pop/rap/hip-hop songs with a burning passion.

Dude I was going the say the same thing, verbatim! 311 has the cheesiest nonsensical lyrics of all time, and their drummer's and bassist's solos are the weakest I've ever heard.

Are you a whiney girl b****? I've only heard that stupid commentary from whiney girl b****es.

Non-dairy creamer isn't bad. I think Jesda just reads too deeply into some things. Third Eye Blind has done a great job of bringing harsh subjects into mainstream music and still making them poppy.

I vote for anything by Beastie Boys.

She like Mariah Carey sounds exactly the same in every song. I hate how condescending and racist she is.

I do miss when Destiny's Child was still together and that dumb ho didn't think she was better than the group.

Lincoln Park is a sell out. From the moment they decided that every album should have a remake album, they failed.

i listen to symphony x mostly. i just haven't found a band as good.

on topic though, i think the worst song ever has to be whatever the newest song at the time is that they play over and over on the hip hop/pop stations.

Wow, am I the only one who thinks that "Crank Dat" by Soulja Boy is quite possible the worst and most annoying song ever made? I have a pretty eclectic mix of music in my collection, hell I even have this just because it's that stupid (plus I like the background rhythm they stole from Commando) , but I could probably make a better CD than this kid, but I'd rather not embarrass myself like that just to get rich.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=93CopJFD5_EThis is the worst song in the WORLD, that stupid high pitched voice makes me want to throw a kitten off a 20579 story building, and the beat is horrible.And anything from Little Wayne also sucks, get over it.

In the 90s, the only mainstream avenues for music about drug abuse and death were grunge and rap. 3EB's gimmick was putting a glossy, polished sheen on harsh subjects. NDC does nothing clever, and the subject matter isn't original or interesting for 2008. Its a good listen without the words though.

Ursa Major grew on me. They've evolved their sound without sounding like they're stuck in the past.
