Top 12 Worst Hit Songs of 2000 2000, the first year of the new millennium. Hard to believe the 2000s are going to be three decades ago in just four years. Anyway, as a year for music, 2000 was okay. Prominent genres included hip hop, teen pop, eurodance, country, alt rock, and everyone's favorite, post grunge. But none were as omnipresent as R&B, which dominated at least half the 2000 Year-End list. Yeah, this wasn't the most diverse year for the radio. But now, here are the worst songs radio stations played this year. Let's go. #12: Eiffel 65- Blue (Da Ba Dee) The one thing Eiffel 65's Blue (Da Ba Dee) has going for it is a good piano riff. That riff is insanely catchy, instantly memorable and serves as a great baseline to build a song off of. Unfortunately this song has nothing to offer beyond that baseline. The production is standard and nothing you haven't heard done better in a thousand other eurodance songs. The only thing that might set it apart is how lo...

The Worst Hit Songs of 1957

The Worst Hit Songs of 1957 I didn't even think I'd do this list. But then I though "eh, what the hell". So I listened through the 1957 Year-End Top 100, which was quite a bit more difficult to find than the 1958 list. The Top 50 is on Wikipedia, linked here , but the bottom half was a chore to find. Still, I was able to do it, and just like with the worst songs of 1958 list, I'll post screenshots of the Year-End at the end of this blogpost. I haven't said this very clearly before, but I kinda just don't like 50s music in general. A lot of it has not held up and sounds either boring, cheap or annoying. Or all three. 1957 thankfully did not have as many novelty songs as 1958 and 1959, but it was still a pretty bad and boring year for the Hot 100. The main trend this year was rockabilly, with doo wop and R&B following closely behind. There were also a lot of cover songs this year. There were literally eight sets of the same song on this YE list. With all...

The Face of TG Storytime Part 11: "The Elementalist" by FantasyGirl Review  tw // grooming, sexual assault We’ve now hit our second unfinished story in this series and, unlike last time, there aren’t any fan continuations with this one. I guess you could say this is the first truly unfinished story, but that’s only if you consider the fan continuations of Suhara the true endings. By the way, I did update my ending for Suhara, if you want to check it out. And now I’m just self advertising so let’s get to the review. “The Elementalist” was first posted on September 24, 2015 by fantasygirl, and was last posted on June 29, 2017. It is 55K words in total, and as said before, it is not finished. This is another TG Storytime exclusive story. Funnily enough, there are stories on BigCloset and ScribbleHub called “The Elementalist”, but they’re completely different works. Now, if I can be brutally honest for a bit, when it comes to unfinished stories, I usually have one of two reaction...
