Songs That Didn't Age Well

[AnOminous]

This is like the king of that shit. Damn, what an awesome song, but just look at the lead singer, who obviously gargles cocks for breakfast.

 

[Rokko]

I hope you can watch that german classic wherever you are!

 

[Positron]

Many songs written by Leon Rosselson appealed to me during my (thankfully brief) edgelord phrase. This is one of such:

 

[Cotton Puddings]

1988's taylor swift, so of course it didn't age well

 

[MrTroll]

 

[Positron]

To me Imagine was pretty stupid to start with.

 

[ccoinhoarder]

Absolutely any and all synthpop. However, if we're going for flatout, 'what the fuck was I thinking'?

 

[Anchuent Christory]

Absolutely any and all synthpop. However, if we're going for flatout, 'what the fuck was I thinking'?

This is pretty much the anthem for any "Friendzoned Niceguys"

 

[Without A Gout]

Absolutely any and all synthpop. However, if we're going for flatout, 'what the fuck was I thinking'?

If I had a dollar for every edgelord who tried to sing the opening part of the song...

For me, I raise you the most overplayed song on YouTube:

 

[AnOminous]

There's this.

With this, again, it's less that the song is horrible than that this look is completely retarded.

I was reminded of this song by the awesome Chris-Chan parody version.

 

[Tailypo]

A lot of 90s songs fit this category, including this:

The song was fun when it first came out, but now I see how ridiculous it looks today. Awkward lyrics ("pound of bacon", really?), weird dance choreography, and the fact that Vanilla Ice is obviously standing in front of a blue screen make it a great example of a song not aging well.

 

[Positron]

Anyone who listen to this song should be embarrassed of themselves.

 

[Judge Holden]

Everything made by the band "S club 7"

jesus christ that shit scarred me in primary school. I alone thought the band shite and I truly fucking suffered for it

 

[XH 502]

If I had a dollar for every edgelord who tried to sing the opening part of the song...

 

[SomewhatNormal]

In middle school I went through a phase where I listened to a lot of 90s music. This is one of the songs I very rarely listened to because even at my dumbest I was smart.

Also, let's not forget this classic

 

[Positron]

Ah and the whole Pet Shop Boys discography. They were the mainstay in radio during my pretentious "smarter than thou" phrase. A few years ago I bought some of their reissues and fuck, the cringe. It also didn't help that the recorded sound (despite having been remastered) was absolute shit.

The worst offender is this: autism in the form of rap.

(Though I admit this song is still a guilty pleasure.)

All this time I thought that Pet Shop Boys was a one hit wonder considering the only song of theirs that gets played on the radio is "West End Girls"

 

[admiral]

I work in a nightclub that essentially specialises in terrible, cheesy 90s and 00s music.

That last one especially makes me cringe. When these songs come on it's time for a cigarette break.

 

[The Nothingness]

 

[Jewelsmakerguy]

I like this song, but I'd be lying if I didn't say that it's aged about as well as the blackface in this video.
