The ugly side of music

July 6, 2006

While messing around on last.fm, I learned of a horrifying European character called Crazy Frog. People in the US don’t seem to be too familiar with Crazy Frog, but apparently there is a song by Crazy Frog which people generally agree is one of the most irritating songs ever made by man. A search for ‘crazy frog’ on YouTube will get you a taste of what this sounds like.

From last.fm:

The success of this album along with the “Axel F” single has irritated and baffled many critics and musicians. This is mostly due to the Frog’s constant chart domination despite the hatred of so many, and the frustration of legitimate musicians selling well below him.

Anyway, through Crazy Frog I discovered many of the more negative tags on last.fm, such as “the worst thing ever to happen to music” (Crazy Frog is by far the top artist), “kill me now,” and “rapes my ears”. I made sure to tag my musical nemesis Kelly Clarkson with all these tags.
