It almost makes me want to pray for an apocalypse just so it cannot get any worse.
If the Crazy Frog can make a list of the 150 top-anything, I have faith in my own bowel movements winning an award. |

That's 20 songs from acts that spawned from reality TV singing competitions, bolded ones I think are the singles that were immediately released after the shows themselves i.e. winners/runners-up singles cashing in on the publicity.
Blergh.

I like those songs a lot better than American Hip Hop. |

No U2, what!?
When was their last big hit? Even their number ones usually just hit then drop right out of the chart. In fact their only song to ever spend more than 1 week at the top was a remix they weren't involved in that sampled Whitney Houston more than them, 'Take Me To The Clouds Above' by LMC Vs U2.

Sad, then, to report that homophobic hate crimes are on the up here in the UK. |

Yes, but at least openly gay artists can have hits there. |

Didn't realize, just assumed songs like "beautiful day", "elevation" and "vertigo" must've been pretty mega, since they still get a LOT of airtime on the radio. Maybe in other parts of the world they were bigger hits... We're here, might as well get into it. |

The songs bolded are okay or good. The rest I feel is just absolute rubbish, music has declined so much lately. All of this Idol style crap, ho singers, and nonsensical shit hop like Pitbull. Song 16 recently got a broadcaster here in trouble as the song was found guilty of promoting alcohol abuse for children. Got some kind of love for you, and I don't even know your name |
